Summary of Varroc Engineering'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.
Last updated:
Outlook by Management:
Varroc Engineering's management remains focused on sustainable growth, driven by strong order wins (annualized peak revenue of Rs.6,046 million in H1 FY25, with 37% from EV models). Key points:
Outlook: Revenue growth to outpace industry by 6"“8% via EV/electronics expansion. Margins to improve with cost initiatives, while debt reduction and ROCE remain priorities.
Last updated:
Question 1:
First question would be on the gross margin in this quarter was slightly on the weaker side quarter-on-quarter, so any specific reason for that?
Answer:
Gross margin weakness was due to a change in the sales model for IMES (increased material procurement responsibility), resin price pass-through lags, and product mix. The IMES impact is notional (no absolute P&L effect), while resin normalization is expected.
Question 2:
On the new business wins, for example, the BMS order win, can you talk a little bit more about it? Did you mention it is for M&M, number one?
Answer:
The battery management system (BMS) order is for an existing 2-wheeler customer, not M&M. It is part of incremental EV-focused wins, with volume ramp-up expected in future quarters.
Question 3:
Similarly for this interior in-built lighting order win, if you can talk a little bit about, is it a domestic customer, overseas customer?
Answer:
The interior ambient lighting order is for a North American EV customer, serviced from Varroc's Romania plant. No major capex is required, as costs are reimbursed by the customer; SOP is expected in 2026.
Question 4:
You mentioned acceleration in capex for H2 FY25. What is the total quantum for FY25 and FY26?
Answer:
FY25 capex is revised to INR260"“270 crore (vs. earlier guidance of INR200 crore) for SMT lines, EV capacity, and land acquisition. FY26 capex may remain elevated (~INR260"“270 crore) to support growth opportunities.
Question 5:
What is the net debt reduction target for FY25 and FY26?
Answer:
Net debt is targeted to reduce to INR700"“750 crore by FY25-end (vs. INR827 crore in H1 FY25), driven by internal cash flows. Further reductions depend on incentive collections and operational performance.
Question 6:
What is the outlook for revenue growth, given EV order contributions?
Answer:
Varroc aims to grow 6"“8% above industry trends, leveraging EV wins (37% of H1 order book). Content per EV 2-wheeler (~INR25,000"“30,000) is 5"“6x higher than ICE, supporting growth despite market volatility.
Question 7:
Why has Bajaj's revenue share increased to 45.3%? Is there market share loss in non-Bajaj segments?
Answer:
Higher Bajaj share reflects rising EV content (e.g., motors, BMS) and strong EV volumes, not market share loss. Non-Bajaj growth depends on passenger vehicle recovery and new order execution timelines.
Question 8:
What is the margin outlook for overseas operations?
Answer:
European margins remain pressured by mix shifts and input-cost pass-through delays. Initiatives like restructuring and customer negotiations aim to improve profitability, but full recovery may take 2"“3 quarters.
Question 9:
What is the update on the China arbitration case?
Answer:
The Singapore tribunal's verdict is expected by December 2024. Arbitration costs are minimal, and the outcome will clarify Varroc's strategic steps for its China operations.
Question 10:
Are there plans for investor rewards (dividends/buybacks)?
Answer:
Focus remains on debt reduction and growth. Dividend/buyback discussions will occur once the balance sheet stabilizes, likely post-FY25. Net debt/equity improved to 0.5x in H1 FY25 (vs. 0.64x in FY24).
