Revenue Growth: Xpro India reported Q4 revenue of INR 158.21 crores, a 23% increase year-over-year, driven by strong demand especially in the Coex division.
Profitability Pressure: Q4 profit before tax dropped to INR 11.51 crores from INR 16.52 crores last year, as lower-margin Coex business grew faster than higher-margin Biax business and strategic price cuts were made.
Margin Strategy: Company deliberately lowered prices in the high-margin dielectric films segment in anticipation of new capacity, leading to an overall EBITDA margin decline, which management sees as temporary.
Capacity Expansion: New Barjora and UAE (Ras Al Khaimah) plants are on track, with Barjora expected to start commercial production around September and both plants having revenue potential of INR 150-200 crores each per year.
Capital Structure: Net debt to equity remains low at 0.19x, with no outstanding long-term borrowings for existing operations. Funding for new projects is fully tied up.
Dividend: Board recommended a dividend of INR 2 per share.
Outlook: Management expects margins to have bottomed out and utilization at new Barjora line to ramp up quickly, supported by strong customer demand and favorable market dynamics.
