Infer that the acquisition of two Bayer AG products aids the company’s push into new geographies.
This aligns with its agrochemical manufacturing expansion at Dahej.
While the INR2.24bn revenue potential over twothree years is modest, it helps Dhanuka to enter foreign markets where it lacks a presence.
Product margins are likely to match the company’s averages, with a payback period of five years. Management maintains guidance of 16% growth in H2FY25 and a 100bp YoY EBITDA margin improvement.
The acquisition does not affect our FY26/27 estimates but supports Dhanuka’s long-term plans; retain ‘BUY’ with an unchanged TP of INR2,136 based on Q2FY27E EPS.
Now, Mr. Moderator chips in to jump to management but to the credit of attendee as well as management which did not shy away, question reiterated.
Management responses guiding for full year, however, attendee view - guided for that quarter.
We need more such real concalls than hi hello thanks for the opportunity.
As per question asked by one of the attendees - Management participated in an investor conference in Sept 2024 when 2 months of Q2 were almost over and guided for worst case 2% EBITDA margin where as came up with 1%. Go through this conversation. It is clear that management is not answering the actual question asked and citing the challenges company faced.

At the end, it was good on SGMart management not to dodge the question and remove attendee from concall which some of managements do. However, I hope they would take it as a lesson and will be more cautious on future guidance and specially, when the guidance has an element of availability of information having spent 2 months in the quarter
Learning for investors -
1. Do not take any management commentary on face value. I see now a days a good trend towards reading concall but a bad trend towards taking any aggressive numbers given by managements on face value
2. Do not only look at current concalls but go through all old one to understand the difference between management "Kathani (what they say)" and "Karni (what they do)"
This is one way to understand management quality. Hope this thread was useful
What are your views on SGMart management in case you are tracking the company? Please share in comments. Also, do highlight if you came across similar interesting conference call

Here it goes -
