Over to you, sir.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rameshbhai Ravajibhai Talavia<\/strong> \u2014 <em>Chairman and Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for joining us today for Dharmaj&#8217;s Q2 and H1 FY &#8217;25 earnings conference call. I&#8217;m pleased to share with you our company&#8217;s performance and key developments for the quarter and half year. Dharmaj has delivered a strong performance in Q2 &#8217;25 following a robust Q1. Our revenue from operations registered a robust 21% growth. This growth was primarily driven by our Active Ingredients vertical, demonstrating our ability to capitalize on market opportunity in this segment.<\/p>\n<p>Our formulations remained relatively flat year-on-year, as we faced some headwinds on account of: First, a significant higher rainfalls in August and September across the major geographies, which disturbed the usual insecticide spraying schedule towards the end of the season, leading to slower business momentum across the country and this was contrary to original expectations of the industry at the beginning of the season, wherein a good monsoon was expected to help domestic sales. However, excess rains towards the end of season leads to lesser demand for agrochemicals in the last two months of season.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, we also observed a price contractions of approximately 10% across the board in September, following promising price trends for agrochemicals from April to August. And these factors contributed to a marginal decrease in our B2B and B2C sales during quarter two. However, it&#8217;s important to note that we still achieved volume growth in formulations, however it was offset by lower realizations towards the end of quartet two.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m pleased to report that operations at Unit 2 in Sayakha are progressing as expected, with a 12% quarter-over-quarter growth. In the first half of financial year &#8217;25, Unit 2 has registered sales of INR1,180 [Phonetic] million. We are gradually ramping up production activities, and performance in H1 financial year &#8217;25 has been satisfactory.<\/p>\n<p>Looking at the bigger picture, Dharmaj has achieved an impressive 37% top line growth in H1 &#8217;25, with a higher contributions coming from the Active Ingredients segment. Another silver lining is that abundant rainfall across the country has led to record reservoir and water level across the country, which bodes well for a strong Rabi season. We anticipate recovering some of the momentum lost in the formulations business during the Kharif season in the upcoming Rabi season.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I would like to hand over to Mr. Vinay Joshi for a brief on financial performance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vinay Joshi<\/strong> \u2014 <em>Chief Financial Officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Hi, good afternoon, everyone. Firstly, I would like to touch upon top line growth. For Q2 we have managed a growth of 21% year-on-year, despite some impact of lower realizations. However, growth in Q2 has been more Active Ingredients driven. For H1 as whole, we have registered an impressive 37% year-on-year growth. It is important to note, while comparing growth year-on-year in FY &#8217;25 versus FY &#8217;24, there has been a broadbased fall in realizations from the previous half year to this. So in effect, our volume growth is in fact higher.<\/p>\n<p>Coming to the profitability front, our gross margins remained healthy and in line with Q1, we experienced some compression in EBITDA margins year-over-year due to a few factors, as communicated earlier in our Q4 call as well. These are higher operating expenses associated with Unit 2 operations, increased employee benefit expenses resulting from annual appraisals in July and new hirings, higher depreciation and finance costs. These factors led to a decrease in PAT on a year-over-year basis, both in Q2 and H1. However, we expect the costs associated with Unit 2 to normalize as revenues from the unit increase.<\/p>\n<p>Further, on the working capital front, you will notice an increase in our inventories, which is on account of operations ramp-up at Unit 2 where manufacturing lead time and inventories are higher than our formulation operations. The increase in receivables in September &#8217;24 versus September &#8217;23 is in line with the H1 FY &#8217;25 versus H1 FY &#8217;24 revenue growth.<\/p>\n<p>You will also see that increase in inventories has been offset by higher trade payables. Since last year, we had higher cash reserves which have now been deployed in our Unit 2, we made higher cash purchases in 2023. While this year we have limited cash purchases to very attractive deals, and made standard credit purchases, in the case of some imported raw material for Unit 2. We have also received longer credit purchases.<\/p>\n<p>I would also like to share that the Board has approved the incorporation of a wholly-owned subsidiary in Brazil. This is keeping in our mind our plans to grow export business in Latin America now that Unit 2 has been commissioned. The outlook for the upcoming Rabi season remains positive, supported by expectations of bumper sowing. We are making concentrated efforts to ramp-up production at Unit 2, positioning it as a key growth engine for our future expansion.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for your attention. We&#8217;ll now open the floor for questions.<\/p>\n<h2>Questions and Answers:<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Operator<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thank you very much, sir.

So, it is above expectation. However, Rabi, the second-half we have to see because normally it is lower than H1, but now we have to see how Rabi season is going on. So, we are expecting the overall capacity utilization will be around 50% to 60% for whole year. What we are expecting as of now. And expenditure wise, if you see the fixed overhead for H1, we can see it is around INR9.5 crore other than financial and depreciation cost. So, this will be same for the next part of year also and in our earlier call&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ankit Gupta<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[Foreign Speech]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vinay Joshi<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>INR9.5 crore, which is fixed overhead for H1.

And the major reason is the reduction in the pricing realizations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ankit Gupta<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[Foreign Speech]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vinay Joshi<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>From EBITDA level it is around INR15 crore EBITDA level &#8212; sorry, PBT level INR15 crore losses are there.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ankit Gupta<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[Foreign Speech]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vinay Joshi<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>EBITDA level, yeah.

[Foreign Speech]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vinay Joshi<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As of now, capacity utilization it is around 58% [Foreign Speech], but now we have to see what we are expecting is Rabi season is going to be good. So, we have to wait and see how Rabi season is going on and if it is better than the losses may reduce and as initially I told, but in normal scenario the breakeven will be for next year only but now we have to see the Rabi season, how it is going on, accordingly our losses will impact on the overall performance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dhwanil Desai<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Okay. [Foreign Speech]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vinay Joshi<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Okay. I think your voice is breaking anyway what I understood. So, see, now this year also [Foreign Speech] we have added some two, three new products. And we are also working on to add on some few more products for next year also, which will help us in overall growth of the revenue. Regarding Brazil, it is Board has approved to incorporate a subsidiary for having a market expansion in Latin America as well and it will help us in the faster registration of our product there. So process of &#8212; we already applied for registration in Brazil, but for incorporation of company now we have to start the process and which will help us in overall revenue growth for overseas import, export as well.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dhwanil Desai<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[Foreign Speech]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rameshbhai Ravajibhai Talavia<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[Foreign Speech]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dhwanil Desai<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Okay, sir.
