As usual, the standard Safe Harbor clause applies when we start the call. Over to you. Bimal Thakkar: Thank you, Sumedh. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining us today. We have commenced FY27 on a strong note, delivering our fourth consecutive quarter of strong double- digit growth year-on-year. In Q1 of FY27, our consolidated revenue from operations increased by 25.9% year-on-year to INR167.3 crores. On a stand-alone basis, revenue grew by 20.5% year-on-year to INR120.9 crores. This performance was driven by deeper shelf space penetration, continued category diversification, traction from product listings secured over the past few quarters and strong execution across our key international markets. Importantly, we achieved this growth despite continued geopolitical uncertainties arising from the West Asia conflict, supply chain and trade route disruptions, vessel shortages and elevated fuel and increased ocean freight costs. Consumer demand for authentic, convenient and value- added ethnic Indian food products continues to remain healthy across our markets. The increasing preference for ready-to-eat, ready-to-cook, shelf-stable and frozen categories continue to support our growth strategy. Our diversified product portfolio, wide geographic presence and established distribution capabilities are enabling us to address these opportunities across diaspora as well as mainstream consumer segments. Coming to our brands. Ashoka continued to deliver strong quarter-on-quarter growth supported by robust demand from South Asian diaspora and deeper penetration across our core and emerging international markets. The brand has delivered a revenue CAGR of more than 20% over the last 5 years reflecting the brand strength, sustained marketing investments, continuing product innovation and expansion across channels and geographies. Going forward, our focus remains on expanding shelf space, introducing new products and strengthening engagement across retail and e-commerce channels. Page 2 of 18 ADF Foods Limited July 30, 2026 FOODS LTD .wJ...,,N-.u Truly Indian has also sustained its growth momentum. The brand is now present across more than 3,000 stores in the United States through marquee mainstream clients. Our investment in product development, refreshed packaging, retail engagement, sampling and digital marketing are helping us strengthen brand visibility and encourage consumer trials. Repeat orders received from several retail partners provide encouraging validation of consumer acceptance and we remain focused on building deeper penetration with existing accounts while pursuing additional listings. Our domestic brand Soul continued to strengthen its presence in India. During the quarter, our focus remained on expanding the product portfolio, increasing reach across e-commerce, quick commerce and modern trade channels and undertaking targeted in-store and digital consumer engagement initiatives. With a refreshed team and a differentiated portfolio of better-for-you packaged food products, we are building this brand with a long-term perspective. On manufacturing, our Surat greenfield facility, which commenced operations in Q4 of financial year '26, has now begun commercial deliveries and initial container shipments. The facility expands our frozen food manufacturing capabilities and provides additional capacity to support future demand. We will continue to scale operations at Surat in a calibrated manner over the coming years while maintaining our focus on quality, efficiency and execution. We also received an important milestone during the quarter by receiving the highest AEO-T3 certification from the CBIC. This strengthens our export operations by enabling faster customs clearances, reduced inspections and improved export efficiency. For a business with significant international presence, this certification further strengthens our trade and compliance capabilities. On profitability, consolidated EBITDA increased by 26% year-on-year to INR29.7 crores with the EBITDA margin at 17.7%. This performance was supported by an improved product mix, continued momentum in frozen foods, tariff refunds, cost optimization initiatives and operational efficiencies despite elevated freight costs and ongoing investments in our brand and organizational capabilities. The operating environment remains uncertain particularly amid evolving geopolitical developments, tariff-related uncertainties, vessel shortages and ongoing disruptions in global shipping networks. This continues to impact freight costs and transit timelines. Despite ongoing external uncertainties, we remain cautiously optimistic as we continue to expand shelf space, scale manufacturing capacity, further strengthen our brands and introduce relevant products across markets. With strong business momentum, we remain well positioned to deliver revenue upwards of INR900 crores in financial year 27 while maintaining healthy high-teen EBITDA margins. The resilience of our business reinforces our confidence in our brand, execution capability and diversified market prese [Showing first 8,000 characters — download PDF for full document]
