Summary of Menon Bearings's latest earnings call, featuring management's outlook on business performance, financial results, and analyst Q&A sessions that highlight key strategic initiatives and market challenges.
During the earnings conference call for Q3 and 9M FY26, management of Menon Bearings Limited provided an optimistic outlook, emphasizing strong performance in key segments. CEO Arun Aradhye highlighted a consolidated revenue of Rs.76.9 crores for Q3, marking a 32% YoY growth, with profit before tax at Rs.12.4 crores and profit after tax at Rs.9.3 crores, both up by 69%. For the nine-month period, consolidated revenue reached Rs.206.6 crores, an 18% increase, and PAT grew 34% to Rs.24.5 crores.
Management expects stable demand across OEM and export markets, projecting a continued focus on improving asset utilization and driving profitable growth, with an eye on an order book anticipated to reach Rs.295 crores for FY26 and Rs.350 crores for FY27. Key forward-looking points mentioned include:
Costs and Efficiency: The installation of a 3.8 MW rooftop solar facility is expected to reduce electricity expenses by Rs.2.25 crores annually. Process improvements and enhanced raw material yield could save an additional Rs.60 to Rs.80 lakhs per month.
Export Strategy: Exports accounted for over 36% of Q3 revenue; management anticipates maintaining this momentum despite tariffs. New customer acquisitions, including significant contracts with major U.S. clients like Allison Transmission, are expected to foster further growth.
Brakes Segment Growth: The Brakes business is projected to ramp up significantly, targeting a growth to Rs.1 crore monthly by developing customer relations and their gradual approval processes.
Future CapEx Plans: Approximately Rs.20 crores is earmarked for CapEx over the next two years, focusing on technology and enhancing product quality without substantial new facility expansions.
Product Mix: Management anticipates that revenue contributions from the Brakes and Alkop segments will increase, predicting a shift in the revenue mix with Bimetal reducing from 74% to about 65-68%, while Alkop could rise to 25-28% and Brakes contribute more as well.
Overall, the management's outlook is assertively positive, expecting sustainable growth supported by strong demand dynamics and operational efficiencies.

MENONBE vs Auto (2021 - 2026)
Question: How are you managing such strong growth in exports despite the tariff scenario?
Answer: We've initiated business with major U.S. customers, notably Allison Transmission, which adds over Rs.2.5 crores monthly. Other clients, like Federal-Mogul DRiV, also contribute. As a result, tariffs imposed by the U.S. have had little impact, and we anticipate continued export growth.
Question: With the rising copper and steel prices, how will you maintain margins?
Answer: While raw material price volatility is concerning, we are passing costs to customers through existing contracts. We're focused on product mix optimization and process efficiencies, which will help protect margins amidst inflation.
Question: Any updates on the Brakes business?
Answer: Our Brakes segment is gaining traction, with monthly revenues nearing Rs.1 crore. We're in talks with OEMs and expect significant growth as we finalize customer approvals, particularly in railways and the two-wheeler market.
Question: What is the current capacity utilization?
Answer: We operate at about 90% in Menon Bearings and 65% in aluminum casting, with the Brakes segment at 60-65%. There's ample potential for expansion without needing substantial new investments in capacity.
Question: What is the CapEx plan for this year?
Answer: We've completed Rs.15 crores in CapEx this year, with an additional Rs.20 crores planned over the next two years, focusing on technology upgrades and enhancing product value.
Question: What are your margin expectations for the next fiscal year?
Answer: We project an EBITDA margin of 21% for FY27. Currently, it stands at 20%, with improvements expected as we optimize our product mix and increase volumes.
Question: Plans regarding the expansion of Alkop capacity?
Answer: We plan to double Alkop capacity from 1,440 to 2,880 units within two years. This growth will result from increasing wallet share with existing customers while onboarding new ones.
Question: What revenue can we expect from new businesses and capabilities?
Answer: We anticipate generating Rs.50 to Rs.60 crores in incremental revenue over the next two years through new customer acquisitions and increased sales to existing clients.
