Pondy Oxides
#PondyOxides
#POCL

Highest ever revenue, EBITDA, PBT and PAT in comps history

Record quarter with good margin expansion

Operational efficiencies
Higher demand
Capex commision and higher utilization

Compiled by

Concall highlights:

Pondy Oxides has achieved it's highest ever Quarterly Sales, EBIDTA and PAT in Q1 FY26.

Invested 8 crores in capex during Q1 and further
42 crores will be invested in the remaining quarters of this year.

Capacity utilisation of the new plant is at around 40 to 45% and overall capacity utilisation is at around 70% and smelting capacities are running at 90%+ levels.

Q1 FY26 Sales mix between Domestic and Exports stood at 44%:56%

Clocked 7% EBIDTA margins and PAT margins increased from 3.3% to 4.6%.

Targeting EBIDTA margins of over 8% and ROCE of 20%.

Company is confident of maintaining 7% EBIDTA With the addition of value added products, margins for the whole year.

Operational efficiencies (furnace efficiencies, power efficiencies have improved), value added products (certain specific value added alloys that the company manufactures for domestic and international customers) have contributed to improved margins and is not due to the dip in lead prices.

Company is moving it's plastics division from leased premises to it's own premises by next quarter thereby saving on overhead expenses of rent. This division should turn EBIDTA positive soon. Company has already served vacation notice to the premises owner.

We will start seeing numbers from Aluminium segment in Q2.

Cash at Bank is about Rs.52 crores. Net debt is under Rs.100 crores.

Mundra capex will be planned next FY.

The lead smelting capacity of their existing 2 plants is 93000 tonnes and with the capex completion of phase 1 and phase 2, further 36000 tonnes from each phase will be added taking the total lead smelting capacity to 1,65,000 tonnes. Optimum capacity utilisation envisaged is around 80% from what is now 70%. Expecting 1,20,000 tonnes of lead this year.

With peak utilisation of the current capacities of 10 to 12000 tonnes of copper, company can generate 650 to 700 crores of revenue for the year. 4 to 4.5% margins is expected from copper division.

Company has started taking credits of lead and plastic EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility) although they have not started selling it as the market is still not mature and realizations would improve going ahead. When the penalties starts kicking in, prices of EPRs would rise. That would be the time to sell these EPR.

Not planning for any acquisitions as we are aiming to streamline efficiencies of our existing plants.

71% of the lead portfolio is comprised of Value added products.

Company targeting to grow it's revenues by 30%+ and enhance margins

80% of the scrap was imported and 20% was sourced locally in Q1 FY26.

It was a brilliant call giving insights on the following:*

*Capex completion time-line*

*Revenue visibility*

*Their Confidence and rationale for maintaining higher EBIDTA and PAT margins

* EPR credits that the company holds which could earn them other income*

* Visibility on timeline for utilisation of it's huge land Bank at Mundra

- Capital efficiency (ROCE > WACC): Yes — ROCE estimated at 36–40%.
- Clean balance sheet: Yes — Debt-free with a robust cash position.
- Attractive valuation: No — Valuation remains at a premium relative to peers.
- Execution credibility: Yes — Proven track record in guidance and successful scale-up.
- No material governance red flag: Yes — No pledging, clean audit record, transparent disclosures.
- Moat/entry barrier: Yes — Possesses niche chemistry focus and locked-in top-tier clients.

9. Bull, Base & Bear Case Scenarios (FY26E–27E Estimate)

Scenario Analysis

Bull Case:
Strong extension of CMI contracts, early Dahej ramp-up, and fast scaling of new molecules lead to 28% revenue CAGR, EBITDA margin above 40%, and ROCE over 40%. Implied price target: ₹1,300 (+30% upside).

Base Case:
Steady CMI/API orders and gradual commissioning deliver 22% revenue CAGR, EBITDA margin of 36–38%, and ROCE of 34–36%. Implied price: ₹1,025 (no significant change).

Bear Case:
Delays in CMI clients, slow new product launches, and raw material cost pressures result in 14% revenue CAGR, EBITDA margin of 28–30%, and ROCE below 25%. Implied price: ₹820 (–18% downside).

- Bull case assumes market share gains, faster capacity absorption, and multiple molecules commercialized; re-rating to 45x EV/EBITDA.

- Bear case is plausible if key customers diversify supply chains and demand recovery is tepid; margin pressure and inventory build-up delay cash flow conversion.

10. Management Commentary (Q4FY25 Call Tone)

- Positive tone: "record-setting year," "meaningful improvement in quality of earnings".
- Emphasis on proactive capex and new product launches.
- Strong confidence in customer order visibility/multi-year contracts.
- No cut in guidance. No tone shift to overt caution.
- Focused on execution pace and sustaining margins.

11. Conclusion

Blue Jet Healthcare is emerging as a secular compounder with strong earnings visibility aided by specialty positioning, global client lock-ins, and operational discipline. Its capital efficiency and margin leadership offer clear differentiation vs Indian CDMO peers. However, valuation appears stretched versus both peers and historic norms and leaves little room for disappointment. Upside from here needs either sharp execution on new molecules/capacity or a sector-wide multiple re-rating. Monitoring customer concentration and supply-chain/geopolitical risks will be key to the thesis over the next 12–24 months.

One of the ways through which we source ideas:-

1) Look for stocks which expanded their Fixed Assets quite heavily in the past (Capex).

2) Their margins are down due to higher Depreciation and Interest Cost + Bad Cycle.

3) Study them and value them roughly.

4) Wait for stage 2 to start as an entry criterion.

5) Buy when margins start going up, and have at least one tranche in during the pain phase.

6) Average up when 30WEMA starts shaping upwards.

7) Keep doing reverse DCF to track implied growth expectations.

Hope you found it useful!

3. Growth Drivers and Key Catalysts

- Order book: Visibility into FY26; multi-year contracts, customer additions in EU/US.
- Capacity expansion:
- Unit-II (Ambernath) and Unit-III (Mahad) major upgrades.
- Dahej site acquired; new multi-purpose plant and expanded R&D (Hyderabad) in pipeline to drive product and client diversification.
- New products:
- Advanced intermediates for new cardiovascular and contrast media molecules (e.g., gadopiclenol, NCE launches in H1 FY26).
- Sweeteners: New higher-margin molecules for FMCG clients.
- Macroeconomic trends:
- CDMO tailwinds from global pharma’s China+1 strategy.
- Ageing demographics and chronic disease prevalence boost CMI demand.
- Regulatory push for import substitution (India), environmental focus.
- Management guidance:
- Confident outlook, with 26% revenue CAGR and 30% EBITDA CAGR guided for FY25–28. Credibility reinforced by historic guidance delivery.

4. Industry Positioning & Competitive Edge

- Revenue: ₹10.3bn TTM – mid-sized CDMO, smaller than Neuland (₹16.3bn) and Jubilant (₹28.7bn)
- EBITDA Margin: 36.7% (FY25) – much higher than peer average (21–31%), margin leader
- PE Ratio: 57.2x (Forward) – well above sector average (~39x), trades at a premium
- ROCE: 36–40% estimated – far ahead of peer norm (high teens/low 20s), efficiency leader

Blue Jet is a mid-sized, highly profitable CDMO with industry-leading margins and capital efficiency, but trades at a premium to sector averages.

Moats:
- Exclusive supplier to top global CMI customers
- Proven ability to scale new pharma intermediates rapidly
- High regulation, large entry barriers, and R&D/engineering capabilities
- Vertically integrated supply chains and environmental focus

Competitive Landscape:
- Industry has consolidated customer base but fragmented supplier base.
- Competition mostly global (large EU/US/Japan suppliers); few credible Indian peers at scale.

5. Valuation – Sector-Relevant Approach

- Industry-relevant metrics:
- EV/EBITDA: 40.5x (TTM)
- P/E: 57.2x (TTM)
- Peer average EV/EBITDA: 17–28x; P/E: 23–35x
- Current valuation:
- Stock trades at a premium to both peers and its 5-year historic average.
- Market cap: ₹174.6bn; share price: ₹1,006.80 (Jul 21, 2025)
- Implied growth:
- Valuation assumes continued high-double-digit earnings growth.
- Consensus 1Y price target: ₹946–1,200 (current price > average target).

6. Financial Summary (Q4FY25/TTM)

- Revenue: ₹3,404 mn in Q4; ₹10,300 mn full year (+7% QoQ, +45% YoY; 3Y CAGR ~30%)
- EBITDA: ₹1,400 mn in Q4; ₹3,777 mn full year (+13% QoQ, +65% YoY; 3Y CAGR ~34%)
- EBITDA Margin: 41.1% for Q4; 36.7% for FY25 (+400 bps YoY)
- Net Profit: ₹1,101 mn in Q4; ₹3,052 mn for FY25 (+11% QoQ, +87% YoY)
- PAT Margin: 32.3% for Q4; 29.6% for FY25 (+663 bps YoY)
- ROCE: ~36–40% estimated
- Cash & Investments: ₹2,848 mn
- Net Debt: Zero (debt-free)
- Planned Capex: ₹3,000 mn (Dahej, Mahad, R&D)
- Working Capital Cycle: ~139 days (increased with scale)

Blue Jet posted robust topline and margin growth in FY25, maintaining high capital efficiency, strong cash position, and a debt-free balance sheet.

Balance Sheet:
- Debt-free, strong cash position (₹2.8bn).
- D/E: Nil.
- Interest Coverage: N/A (no net debt); robust cash flows.
- Cash conversion impacted temporarily by expansion cycle; operating cash flow in line with accruals.

7. Risk Assessment

- Sectoral/Structural:
- Large customer concentration (top 3 drive majority of revenue)
- Regulatory risks (pharma/export, environmental standards)
- Macro: Euro/₹ currency volatility

- Company-Specific:
- Execution risks: capacity ramp-up (Mahad/Dahej), new product commercialization timelines
- Raw material supply-chain, especially for specialty chemicals
- Governance: No red flags; high promoter holding (alignment)
- Tech risk: Slow pace of new molecule adoption by clients
