AI summary

Century Enka reported strong Q4 FY26 with operating revenue of Rs. 484 crore (9% YoY, 17% QoQ) and EBITDA of Rs. 55 crore, with EBITDA margin expanding significantly to 11.46%. The strong performance was driven by higher sales volumes (20,711 MT, +14% YoY) and effective pass-through of raw material cost increases following the Iran conflict. Full year FY26 showed revenue of Rs. 1,705 crore (-15% YoY) but improved profitability with EBITDA at Rs. 148 crore (+29% YoY) and PAT of Rs. 101 crore (+52% YoY). The company guided for improved operating margin range of 7-10% going forward, supported by renewable energy expansion (increasing renewable power share from 36% to 48%) and CAPEX of Rs. 100+ crore in FY27 focused on value-added products and efficiency improvements. PTCF commercial sales expected to start in H2 FY27. The company has cash reserves over Rs. 400 crore and is evaluating growth opportunities.

Likely market impact

The company demonstrated strong margin recovery in Q4, and management's guidance of 7-10% operating margin range signals an upward shift in expectations, driven by cost reduction initiatives and value-added product mix. The Rs. 100 crore CAPEX plan and cash position indicate commitment to growth while improving operational efficiency.
