Associated Alcohols & Breweries (AABL) shared its Q1FY26 results and strategic outlook via an investor presentation. Net revenue was flat YoY at ₹2,667 Mn, but EBITDA jumped 32% to ₹371 Mn with margins expanding 300 bps to 14%, helped by softening rice and maize prices. Profit after tax grew 34% to ₹237 Mn, and diluted EPS rose 27% to ₹12.43. IMFL Proprietary volumes grew 31% YoY on strong traction in premium brands (Nicobar gin, Hillfort whisky), while licensed volumes dipped 6% due to industry-wide softness. The 40 MLPA ethanol plant achieved 100% utilisation, and a 6,000 LPD malt plant is set to start from September 2025. Management has guided to 15-18% YoY growth in IMFL Proprietary, 8-10% in licensed, and 18-20% in premium products, with new launches in RTD (H2 FY26), Tequila, and Premium Brandy (end FY26). The company remains nearly debt-free with net debt/equity at 0.04x and interest coverage of 22x, and is expanding into Maharashtra, UP, Puducherry, and Goa.
The sharp EBITDA margin expansion and strong volume growth in the high-margin proprietary segment are positives, though the headline revenue remained flat. Healthy cash flows, minimal debt, and premiumisation-led growth guidance are supportive of the stock, but the licensed segment softness and RTD launch delay are minor watchpoints.
