GHCL Textiles filed the transcript of its Q1 FY26 earnings call. Revenue declined 6.5% year-on-year to Rs. 270 crores due to lower yarn sales volumes, but EBITDA grew 10.5% to Rs. 32 crores and PAT rose 15% to Rs. 14 crores, supported by operational efficiency and lower cotton costs. The company commissioned a new 25,000-spindle unit in June, with full ramp-up expected from Q3 FY26, targeting Rs. 250 crores of incremental annual revenue. Management laid out multi-year targets: 2x revenue growth, 15-18% EBITDA margin, and double-digit ROCE over 4-5 years, driven by vertical integration into knitted fabrics (40 machines, Rs. 38 crore capex). Cotton prices have risen to Rs. 58,000 per candy, spreads have compressed to Rs. 119/kg in July, and Q2 is expected to remain weak amid US tariff uncertainty, with exports falling to 6% of revenue from 18% last year.
Near-term margin pressure persists as Q2 guidance is soft and cotton spreads have compressed, but capacity expansion, the knitting foray from Q4 FY26, and potential US/UK trade deal benefits could drive a recovery in H2 FY26, supporting the longer-term growth story.
