Dhampur Bio Organics filed the transcript of its Q1 FY26 earnings call held on July 29, 2025. Revenue from operations grew 28.75% YoY to Rs. 821 crores, driven by better sugar realizations and higher ethanol and country liquor sales. However, the company swung to a loss after tax of Rs. 19.37 crores versus a Rs. 1.11 crore profit in Q1 FY25, mainly because sugar net recovery fell sharply to 9.55% from 10.48% due to red rot and pest infestation in UP. Ethanol production rose to 21.67 million liters (from 13.7 million liters) and country liquor volumes grew 45% to 11.24 lakh cases. The company completed conversion of its 100 KLPD Asmoli distillery into a dual-feed (molasses and grain) facility in June 2025. CFO Nalin Gupta said Rs. 15 crores of long-term loans were repaid in the quarter, with long-term debt at Rs. 304 crores and debt-equity ratio at 0.3x. Analysts openly called the results disappointing and questioned the timeline for a turnaround, with management pushing recovery hopes to Q3-Q4 as cane development and new ethanol facilities ramp up.
Near-term sentiment is likely negative given the quarterly loss and analyst disappointment, though the strong revenue growth and ramp-up of ethanol and dual-feed capacity offer medium-term hope. The stock may stay under pressure until sugar recovery normalises and the new distillery initiatives reflect in earnings.
