Quarter overview

Quarterly earnings analysis

01

Consolidated total revenue for FY26 stood at INR3,626.4 crores, up 33.2% year-on-year. EBITDA reached INR5,741 million (up 39.8%) with an EBITDA margin of 15.8%, and PAT was INR3,639 million (10% PAT margin).

02

Near-term top-line performance missed market expectations due to geopolitical disruptions, particularly the West Asian conflict, causing last-minute customer deferments, supply chain delays, and product timing shifts.

03

Consolidated working capital days stood at around 122 days for FY26, heavily impacted by the metering subsidiary model. Stand-alone EMS business working capital days improved from 83 days in FY24 to 53 days in FY26.

01 · Business model

What does Kaynes Technology India do?

Kaynes Technology is an electronics-manufacturing-services company involved in design, manufacturing and integrated electronics solutions. Q1 FY27 is a good example of why revenue alone gives an incomplete picture: the top line grew strongly, while PAT moved the other way.

PAT declined despite the higher revenue and EBITDA.

What drove margins

Intangible Amortization Impact

Intangible assets increased from INR238 crores in FY25 to INR536 crores in FY26 following acquisitions like Iskraemeco and August Electronics, adding approximately INR32 crores of quarterly depreciation and amortization.

NPD Margin Expansion Strategy

04 · Demand, customers & order book

Where demand is coming from

Healthy Order Book

The company's order book remains healthy, diversified, noncancelable, and exceeds INR9,000 crores.

Broad-Based EMS Verticals

Core EMS growth is increasingly broad-based across automotive, EV, industrial, aerospace, and railway segments, reducing single-line dependency.

05 · Capacity, projects & execution

What is being built, commissioned or delivered

Capacity, production and utilisation

OSAT and PCB Expansion

OSAT Unit 1 is fully operational and Unit 2 enters commercialization by Q2 FY26, deepening backward integration and high-value manufacturing.

Execution and Digitalization

Plant plants are integrating Industry 4.0, total predictive maintenance, and advanced quality systems to improve manufacturing metrics and execution discipline.

06 · Reported developments

What changed operationally

Mysore Facility Milestone

The Mysore facility crossed INR10,000 million in revenue during FY26, reflecting scale, maturity, and strong customer confidence.

OSAT and PCB Growth Engines

OSAT Unit 1 is fully operational, and Unit 2 is slated for commercialization by Q2 FY26. OSAT revenue visibility exceeds INR25,000 million over the next 5 years, alongside a robust 5-year confirmed demand pipeline in PCB.

Standalone EMS Cash Flow Improvement

Standalone EMS business generated positive cash flow of over INR250 crores in FY26, compared to INR65 crores in the previous year.

07 · Pressure points & risks

What is not going smoothly

Guidance Variance

Actual FY26 revenue of ~INR3,600 crores fell significantly short of initial guidance of INR4,500 crores and subsequent downward revision to INR4,000 crores.

EV Customer Drop

One of the largest electric vehicle OEM customers in 2-wheelers dropped production significantly by about 90%, impacting anticipated offtake where Kaynes was the single supplier.

Metering Subsidiary Receivables Pressure

Metering subsidiary receivables expanded to INR1,365 crores due to delayed site installations, particularly across rural government tenders, causing substantial negative operational cash flow impacts.

08 · Cash flow & balance sheet

Profit is one thing. Cash and funding tell another part of the story.

Metering Business Model Restructuring

Future metering orders will avoid complete installation-linked execution models; Kaynes will focus primarily on component/meter supply to specialized project execution teams.

Debt-to-Equity Ratio

Debt-to-equity ratio stood at approximately 0.2 in FY26, reflecting a disciplined capital structure during expansion.

Metering Receivables Resolution Timeline

Management expects to resolve metering subsidiary working capital and reduce receivables significantly, targeting positive cash flow or substantial reversal within three quarters.

09 · Management guidance & targets

What management is targeting from here

Shift to Qualitative Growth Commitments

Management explicitly stepped away from hard absolute revenue guidance figures given past volatility and external uncertainties beyond operational control.

Growth Strategy without Fixed Numerical Guidance

Management is refraining from providing strict numerical revenue guidance due to macroeconomic volatility, instead committing to outgrow and double the market growth rate (market growing at 15% to 16%).

Subsidiary Production Targets for FY27

Management anticipates PCB production volume around INR300 crores to INR400 crores, and OSAT production of around INR250 crores to INR300 crores for FY27.

Important analyst Q&A

4 key points
Guidance Discrepancies and OCF

Viral Shah (Enam Holdings) questioned the vast variance between guidance and actual results on both P&L and OCF sides. Management apologized for delays and attributed the OCF deficit to metering project installation lags.

Working Capital Breakeven Mechanics

Nitin Arora (Axis Mutual Fund) and Dhaval Somaiya (Axis Mutual Fund) pressed management on what triggers will normalize INR600 crores of negative working capital. Management reiterated that 70% to 80% of metering receivables stress will normalize by Q3 as installations accelerate.

Metering Revenue and Securitization Progress

Amber Singhania (Nippon India AMC) asked about metering revenues, total receivables (INR1,365 crores), and stalled securitization. Management clarified that bank securitization has only discounted about INR40 crores so far due to installation completion prerequisites.

Intangible Assets and Amortization

Sumant Kumar (Motilal Oswal) queried the increase in intangible assets to INR536 crores. Management explained it reflects acquisitions of Iskraemeco and August Electronics, with quarterly amortization now hitting depreciation lines.
