Alicon Castalloy, a leading integrated aluminum castings manufacturer, reported Q1 FY26 (quarter ended June 30, 2025) total income of Rs. 418.7 crore, down 2% from the previous quarter (Rs. 425.6 cr) and down 5% year-on-year (Rs. 440.7 cr). Despite the topline dip, EBITDA improved 4% sequentially to Rs. 49.9 crore, and pre-exceptional profit before tax rose 16% QoQ to Rs. 15.2 crore. Profit after tax was largely flat at Rs. 9.3 crore (down 1% QoQ), but fell 51% versus the same quarter last year. Management cited headwinds from tariff uncertainty, a shortage of rare earth materials from China, and muted demand, while noting a nearly 4% decline in their addressable market. The company announced a new Defence, Aerospace, and Railways (DAR) vertical and appointed a new COO and Head of DAR.
Mixed quarter for shareholders: profitability showed sequential recovery with better margins, but YoY earnings fell sharply and topline remains under pressure. Investors should watch progress in the new DAR vertical and cost optimization efforts, which management says will be key to margin improvement going forward.
