I now hand the conference over to Mr. Navin Sahadeo from ICICI Securities. Thank you, and
over to you.
Navin Sahadeo: Thank you. Good evening, everyone. On behalf of ICICI Securities, I welcome you all to the
conference call of Skipper Limited. Today, we have with us from the management, Mr. Sharan
Bansal, Director; Mr. Shiv Shankar Gupta, Company CFO; and also Mr. Aditya Dujari, EVP,
Finance and Head IR.
So without any further ado, I hand over the call to the management for their opening comments.
Over to you, sir.
Sharan Bansal: Good evening, everyone, and thank you for joining today's Skipper con-call for quarter 2 FY27.
Before we proceed, I would like to draw your attention to the fact that certain statements made
during the call may be forward-looking in nature and should be considered in conjunction with
the risks and uncertainties associated with our industry and business.
We are pleased to report another strong quarter with record revenue, sustained margin
expansion, robust order inflows and a significant improvement in our balance sheet despite
inflationary cost environment, continued geopolitical uncertainties and temporary disruptions in
export markets.
Let me begin with our financial performance. During quarter 2 FY27, we achieved our highest
ever second quarter revenue of INR1,384 crores, registering 10% year-on-year growth. For H1
FY27, revenue reached a record INR2,694 crores, growing 7% over the corresponding period
last year. Profitability continued to strengthen, reflecting improved execution, favorable project
mix and disciplined cost management.
Q2 EBITDA grew 11% year-on-year to INR145 crores with margins expanding to 10.5%. Profit
before tax increased 25% to INR78 crores, while PAT grew a strong 56% to INR57.5 crores,
with PAT margins improving by 130 basis points to 4.2%. For H1, we delivered our highest ever
half yearly PAT of INR114 crores, representing 40% growth year-on-year.
An important highlight has been the continued improvement in our financial position. Our
finance cost as a percentage of revenue declined to 3.2% in quarter 2 from 4.2% a year ago,
supported by lower borrowings and better financial discipline.
Our debt-to-equity ratio improved to 0.38x, while gross debt, including interest-bearing
acceptances declined by approximately INR358 crores year-on-year to INR964 crores. The
recent INR433.5 crores preferential equity raise and our CRISIL rating upgrade to A+/stable
further strengthened our financial flexibility.

Coming to the business performance, our order book reached a new milestone of INR10,066
crores as of September 2026, providing strong revenue visibility. We secured record Q2 order
inflows of INR2,111 crores, up 70% year-on-year, taking H1 order inflows to INR3,786 crores,
up 18%.
Our bidding pipeline remains strong at over INR35,000 crores, supported by sustained domestic
transmission investment and expanding international opportunities. Exports remain a key
strategic priority for us, and we are particularly encouraged by the changing composition and
diversification of our export order book.
Our geographical exposure is now well diversified with the Middle East accounting for less than
18% of our export order book. The majority of our export order inflows are increasingly coming
from developed markets, particularly the U.S. and Australia, where we are witnessing strong
customer traction, growing engagement and encouraging order opportunities.
Our record quarterly export order inflow of INR1,055 crores, which surpassed the entire export
order inflow of FY26 is a strong validation of our growing international competitiveness and
expanding global customer relationships. We believe this diversification significantly
strengthens the quality and resilience of our export portfolio and positions us well for sustained
international growth.
Further, the ongoing 75,000 MTPA capacity expansion is on track and likely to be commissioned
and operational in H2 '27, taking our total installed capacity to 450,000 MTPA from existing
375,000 MTPA. This expansion will strengthen our ability to serve larger orders, improve
operating leverage and capitalize on opportunities in both domestic and international markets.
We continue to work towards our longer-term capacity road map of 600,000 tons by FY29,
alongside customer qualification initiatives across developed markets and expansion of our
global presence. Looking ahead, the structural outlook for power transmission and distribution
sector remains encouraging, supported by grid expansion, renewable energy integration, rising
electricity demand and investment in high-voltage transmission infrastructure.
We believe Skipper is well-positioned to benefit from these opportunities through its integrated
manufacturing capabilities, execution track record, expanding capacity and growing
international footprint. With a record order book, improving profitability, a stronger balance
sheet and increasing traction in developed export markets, we remain focused on delivering
sustained growth and creating long-term shareholder value.
With these opening remarks, I would like to hand over the call for follow-up questions from
participants.
Moderator: Thank you very much. We will now begin the question-and-answer session. The first question
is from the line of Dheeraj Mali from Wealthifield.
Dheeraj Mali: My question is, in the previous con call, you maintained your FY27 revenue growth of 15% and
said you are confident of achieving it. However, H1 revenue growth is currently around 7.1%.

To achieve the 15% full year target, you would need around 21.6% growth in H2. Are you still
confident of achieving this target? And what will drive that higher growth in the second half?
