Oriental Aromatics Limited has informed the Exchange about Transcript

Oriental Aromatics filed the transcript of its Q1 FY'26 earnings call held on August 11, 2025. Consolidated operating revenue stood at INR 226 crores, up 4.5% year-on-year but down 10.9% sequentially, while EBITDA was INR 18 crores with margin at 8.03% versus 10.29% a year ago. Net profit was a weak INR 0.5 crores, dragged by higher depreciation and finance costs from recent capacity expansions, with cash profit at INR 8 crores. Management maintained its EBITDA margin guidance of 8-10% and reiterated the 1.7x asset turnover expectation on its INR 200+ crore investment over 2-3 years. The new Mahad greenfield facility is still in ramp-up at 20-30% capacity, while other plants are running at 75-80%. Management sounded optimistic about a stronger Q2 on festive demand, though flagged the potential impact of a 50% US tariff on certain Indian exports.
