Strategic Initiatives and Leadership
The company strengthened its leadership team with the appointment of Douglas Bailey as Global CEO, bringing over three decades of experience in semiconductor and power electronics industries. His expertise in Wide Bandgap Technologies such as GaN and SiC adds significant depth to the management team.
The Board approved an investment of ₹90 lakhs in wholly-owned subsidiary Coincade Studios Private Limited to strengthen its capital base and support business expansion plans. Additionally, the company granted 1,00,000 employee stock options under ESOP 2018 scheme at ₹800 per option.
Operational Developments
The backward integration project for specialized copper conductors at the Sinnar facility continued to stabilize and scale up. The company successfully commenced deployment of in-house manufactured conductors in transformers supplied to Indian Railways. Management expects this segment to deliver positive results from Q1 FY27 onwards, with full benefits materializing from Q2 FY27.
Growth Outlook and Market Opportunities
Management expressed confidence in maintaining 30% year-on-year growth, driven by existing business and product lines. The union budget's record capital expenditure allocation of ₹2.93 lakh crores for Indian Railways, along with plans for 1,700 electric locomotives in the next year, provides strong demand visibility.
The company is actively developing approximately 40 products across various categories, including completely new products, upgrades, and engineering improvements. Most products are focused on railways, with some targeting non-railway sectors including defense and electronics.
Margin Recovery Strategy
While EBITDA margins moderated by 120 basis points year-on-year due to expansion investments and raw material cost increases, management expects margin recovery from Q4 FY26. The real upside is anticipated from Q2 FY27 onwards when the CTC factory reaches full operational capacity, improving cost efficiencies and supply chain reliability.
