Abhishek Singhal: Thank you, Anushka. Good afternoon, and thank you all for joining us today for Solara Earnings
Call for Q1 FY27. Today, we have with us Sandeep, MD and CEO and Sarat, CFO of the
company to share the highlights of the business and financials for the quarter. I hope you've gone
through our results release and the quarterly investor presentation that have been uploaded on
our website as well as the stock exchange website.
The transcript of this call will be available in a week's time on the company's website. Please
note that today's discussion will be forward-looking in nature and must be viewed in relation to
risks pertaining to our business. After the end of the call, in case you have any further questions,
please feel free to reach out to the Investor Relations team. I now hand over the call to Sandeep
to make his opening comments.
Sandeep Rao: Thank you, Abhishek. Firstly, good evening, and thank you, for all who are joining in the call
today on our Q1 27 Earnings call. I sincerely appreciate your time and your presence on this
call. As you must have seen, Q1 FY27 has been another quarter of stellar execution. Our overall
revenues stand at INR384 crores, up 20% year-on-year.
EBITDA stands at INR63.5 crores, which is up 10% year-on-year. Our PAT is at INR16.3
crores, which is up 55% year-on-year. This is the highest EBITDA and PAT that we have
achieved in the last 18 quarters. These results underscore the strength of our core business. It is
an outcome of disciplined execution. It also shows that continued focus on profitable growth.
Now coming to the base business. Our base business continues to exhibit strong momentum,
supported by consistent operational execution. And I reiterate the focus on profitable growth.
Our base business revenues stand at INR307 crores, up 24% year-on-year. Gross margins was
at INR158 crores, up 10% year-on-year and EBITDA at INR72 crores, up 8% year-on-year.
In spite of all the cost pressures we face, resulting from higher raw material prices, which was
triggered by the ongoing geopolitical developments in West Asia. The sustained performance of
the base business reinforces our confidence in our long-term growth potential.
Now coming to the commodity Ibuprofen business, this business continues to face profitability
challenges. We reported an EBITDA margin of negative 12% amidst what we think is a difficult
operating environment. While profitability remains under pressure, we witnessed a marginal
sequential improvement during the quarter. Now looking forward, looking ahead, we remain
committed to building on this strong foundation by driving sustainable profitability growth
enhancing our margins.

And creating long-term value for all our stakeholders through a combination of disciplined
execution, operational excellence and prudent capital allocation. Despite the significant
headwinds driven by the West Asia crisis and its impact on all global businesses, the underlying
fundamentals of our base business continue to remain strong, supported by a sound operating
model and a healthy product mix across regulated markets. I would like to thank our shareholders
again for your continued support and your continued faith and trust in Solara.
With this, I will now hand over to Sarat, our CFO, for his opening remarks.
Sarat Kumar: Thank you, Sandeep. Good morning, good afternoon, and warm good evening, ladies and
gentlemen, and thank you for joining in today's Q1 FY '27 earnings call for Solara Active Pharma
Sciences Limited. As shared by Sandeep, despite facing headwinds driven by the ongoing West
Asia crisis, which led to significant challenges in terms of input cost pressures as well as supply
chain challenges with respect to raw material availability.
The overall business has recorded a strong quarterly result in Q1 '27 with the business recording
its highest EBITDA and PAT in the previous 18 quarters. Although our gross margins were
marginally lower on a Q-on-Q basis, driven by the raw material pricing and supply challenges,
which was actually triggered by the West Asia crisis, the business has delivered an EBITDA
margin of 17% with an absolute EBITDA value of INR635 million, which reflects an
improvement in EBITDA margin by 80 basis points Q-on-Q in addition to what Sandeep already
mentioned that we have grown a 10% Y-o-Y basis. As a business, we continue to focus our
efforts on operating cost leverage and margin expansion in our pursuit of chasing incremental
business growth at a healthier margin profile.
Our ongoing efforts on strengthening the balance sheet has led to a reduction of net debt by
roughly INR135-odd crores during the quarter, which reflects around 22% reduction in the net
debt, roughly INR100 crores of that coming in from the final call money of the rights issue
realized in May '26 and the balance INR35 crores were delivered from our operational cash
flows.
As we speak, our net debt as on 30th of June stands at roughly INR479 crores, which reflects a
net debt-to-EBITDA multiple of roughly 1.9x considering the annualized Q1 EBITDA numbers
what we have reported. Further, we have a line of sight to reduce the debt to sub INR450 crores,
somewhere around close to INR440-odd crores by end of March '27., considering the scheduled
repayments what we have for the debt, which will further improve the net debt-to-EBITDA
multiple to roughly 1.7x considering the Q1 annualized run ra
