Apollo Micro Systems Limited has released a comprehensive shareholder letter from Managing Director Baddam Karunakar Reddy marking FY 2025-26 as a breakthrough year. Key developments include the 100% acquisition of IDL Explosives Limited through subsidiary ADIPL, with IDL's long-term debt fully repaid and cash position growing approximately 5x year-on-year. The company received DPIIT industrial licenses for manufacturing UAVs, missiles, torpedoes, mines, and ammunition, transitioning from a Tier-1 electronics supplier to an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of defence platforms. Other milestones include the first export order, a tri-party alliance with Indian Navy and IIT-Chennai, MoU with GRSE, and transfer of technology in Directed Energy Weapons. The company has outlined a 10-year vision (FY 2036) to become a global defence OEM with revenue across land, air, and sea domains.
The strategic transformation from subsystem supplier to platform OEM, combined with the IDL acquisition and multiple defence licenses, positions Apollo for significant long-term growth aligned with India's defence indigenization goals. However, shareholders should note the company's acknowledgment of long business cycles, capital intensity, and execution risks inherent in defence manufacturing.
