Thank you, Ina. Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome to the earnings call of Oriental Aromatics Limited for the second quarter and first half of financial year 26-27. I am pleased to share that the company has delivered its highest ever quarterly revenue during Q2 FY27, accompanied by an improvement in operating margins and profitability. Our performance reflects the strength of our diversified business model and the continued efforts of our teams across all three divisions. While the external environment remains challenging, particularly with respect to raw material costs, continued geopolitical uncertainty, and competitive pricing, the progress achieved during the first half is encouraging. Our Executive Director, Mr. Shamal Godani, will now take you through the operational performance and key developments during the quarter and the first half of the financial year. Thereafter, our Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Girish Khandelwal, will present the financial highlights. Thank you. Shamal, over to you.
Thank you, Dharmal. Good afternoon, everyone. Before I take you through the operational performance of the company, I would like to begin with an important announcement. Oriental Aromatics Ltd. is glad to announce that we have entered into a technical, strategic, and manufacturing arrangement with Unilever Industries Private Ltd. Coming to our operational performance, Quarter 2, Financial Year 27, has been an encouraging quarter for Oriental Aromatics. With the company achieving its highest ever quarterly revenue from operations of 318.19 crores, representing growth of approximately 17% year-on-year and 22% quarter-to-quarter. For the first half of financial year 27, consolidated revenue from operations stood at approximately 578 crores. Representing growth of 16.3% year-on-year. More importantly, this growth has been accompanied by an improvement in operating profitability. For the first half, consolidated EBITDA margins improved to 7.80% compared with 7.11% in H1 FY26. Improvement reflects a combination of better sales realization, product mix, and the benefit of our ongoing operations efficiency programs. On the volume side, total production increased by 7% sequentially, while sales volume increased by 4%. For the first half as a whole, sales volume Increased by 7% year-on-year. While production volume increased by one percent. Let me now take you through the performance of our three business divisions. Fragrances and flavors. The fragrance and flavor divisions continue to operate in an environment where the underlying demand fundamentals remain positive. The Indian FMCG industry has demonstrated encouraging growth during quarter two. with several leading consumer product companies reporting improved volumes growth across home care personal care and beauty categories the performance has been partially particularly encouraging in home care and beauty and well-being Where leading companies have reported double-digit volume growth reflecting the resilience of domestic consumption and continued investment by FMCG companies in strengthening their product portfolios. We believe that the improvement of FMCG consumption, supported by the long-term growth of the Indian economy, and the increasing penetration of branded consumer products, Presents a significant opportunity for oriental aromatics, fragrance, and flavor business. During Q2, production at Ambarnaath increased by 14% sequentially, while sales volumes increased by 20% compared with Q1 FY27. Our focus continues to remain on strengthening relationships with existing customers, expanding our participation in new fragrance briefs, The internalization of aroma ingredient programs at Oriental Aromatics Limited continues to be an ongoing exercise and will further enhance and strengthen our fragrance creation capability, enabling us to develop winning fragrances that meet and exceed the expectation of our end-use industries. We believe that this combination of fragrance creation capabilities and backward integration into aroma ingredients provides oriental aromatics with a significant competitive advantage. Speciality aroma ingredients. Coming to speciality aroma ingredients, the broader global market continues to remain competitive Thank you. Thank you. For the first half, sales volumes increased by 10% year-on-year, reflecting continued customer demand and our focus on strengthening market penetration. However, raw material costs continue to remain an important challenge. Prices of several terpene-based and petrochemical-derived raw materials have remained elevated and volatile, While competitive market conditions have restricted the pace at which these We believe that the breadth of our product portfolio, our multi-chemistry manufacturing capabilities, And our long-standing relationships with global customers will continue to provide resilience in this competitive environment. The camphor and terpene chemicals division continue to operate in a challenging domestic market characterized by structural overcapacity and competitive pricing. The significant capacity additions undertaken by the industry over the past several years continues to influence the demand supply balance and profitability. At Bareilly, production increased by 4% sequentially during Q2. Sales volume were lower by 5% compared with Q1 and 8% compared with the corresponding quarter last year. One of the important reasons for the reduction in sales volumes has been the substantial increase in the price of alpha pineal, which is a key raw material for the manufacturing of camphor. This has resulted in a significant increase in the camphor selling prices and has consequentially impacted offtake, particularly in the puja segment, where consumer demands remain sensitive to price increases. However, for the first half, production increased by 8% year-on-year, while sales volumes increased by 11% year-on-year. This reflects the strength of our customer relation and our continued focus on market penetration despite the competitive environment. Our pharmaceutical-grade camp I'm for business. Strategic B2B relationships and B2C vertical continues to remain an important element of our business strategy. At the same time, our approach remains disciplined. We believe the sustainable profitability must remain an important consideration while pursuing opportunities for additional volumes. Coming to Mahad, I am pleased to report that our facility continues to make progress in its commercial ramp-up. During Q2, production increased 51% sequentially, while sales volume increased by 74% compared with Q1 FOI 27. For the first half, production increased by 36% year-on-year, while sales volumes increased significantly from relatively small base. These developments are encouraging and reflect the progress being made in converting customer qualifications and commercial opportunities into actual sales. As we have explained in our previous investor calls, the Specialty Aroma Ingredients business follows a relatively long customer approval and commercialization cycle. While the product acceptance and customer qualifications proceed... The process to progress, the facilities continue to operate below its optimal utilization levels and therefore remains a drag on consolidated profitability. Our focus continues to be securing regular commercial allocations, improving manufacturing efficiencies, and progressively increasing capacity utilization. We believe that as commercial volumes build and fixed costs are absorbed more effectively, Mahad will begin contributing positively to the company's profitability. It is also important to reiterate that Mahad is a strategic, long-term investment. The infrastructure created at the location has been designed to accommodate additional molecules and future phases of expansion, providing opportunities beyond the existing manufacturing program. Looking at the broader operating environment, the global fragrance and aroma ingredients industry continues to present a mixed picture. Demand for fragrances remain resilient, particularly in customer product categories, while the ingredients business continues to face competitive pricing and raw material cost pressures. Geopolitical Uncertainty Currency movements, volatility in petrochemical feedstocks, and availability of certain natural raw materials continue to influence procurement and manufacturing costs. Our approach remains focused on maintaining security of supply, working closely with customers on price adjustments, wherever commercially feasible, and continuously improve our internal cost structure. The improvement in operating margins during the first half is encouraging. However, we recognize that sustaining and improving these margins will require continued operational discipline. As communicated in our earlier investor calls, We have been in a phase of consolidation, with our priority being to maximize the utilization, productivity, and profitability of the manufacturing assets created over the past several years. We believe that the investments made during the period have significantly strengthened our manufacturing infrastructure and technical capabilities, providing a strong foundation for the next phase of growth. As we enter the second half of FY27, we remain cautiously optimistic about the opportunities before us. The performance during the first half, particularly the improvement in revenue, operating margins, and profitability, provide an encouraging foundation. However, we remain mindful of the challenges arising from raw material inflation, competitive pricing, and geopolitical Thank you. Our priorities for the coming quarters remain unchanged. We will continue to focus on sustainable and profitable growth across all three divisions. We will continue to invest in and optimize every level of our business, with a strong emphasis on improving operational efficiency, manufacturing productivity, and cost competitiveness. We will also maintain close monitoring of raw material markets, energy and utility costs. Currency movements and the broader geopolitical environment. This will enable us to respond proactively to changing market conditions and wherever commercially feasible, pass through increase in input costs to our customers. At the same time, wherever market conditions require us to remain resilient and absorb these pressures, we will continue to look internally for opportunities to improve efficiencies and achieve our objective of sustainable growth. Our R&D program continues to remain as strong as ever. Over the past few quarters, while our primary focus has been on consolidation, we have utilized this period to further strengthen our R&D pipeline, both in speciality aroma ingredients and fragrance creation. This has enabled us to continue developing new molecules, strengthening our fragrance portfolio, and preparing the organization for the next phase of growth. We also intend over the coming quarters to announce our plan for further expansion, whether through brownfield or greenfield projects, as we look to maintain the momentum of our growth and build upon the manufacturing and technological capabilities created over the past several years. To summarize, H1FY27 has been a period of meaningful progress for Oriental Aromatics. We have achieved our highest ever quarterly revenue, delivered healthy first-half growth, improved operating margins, and continue to make progress in strengthening our manufacturing and commercial capabilities. At the same time, we remain realistic about the challenges facing our industries and the work that remains to be done. The direction of travel is encouraging. Our focus is now to convert this operational momentum into sustained improvements in profitability, capital efficiency, and long-term shareholder value through discipline, execution over the coming quarters.
Thank you.

With these remarks, I would now like to hand over the proceedings. to the moderator and open the floor for the question and answer session.
Thank you. Thank you so much. Ladies and gentlemen, we will now begin with the question and answer session. Anyone who wishes to ask a question may press star and 1 on their touchstone telephone. If you wish to remove yourself from the question queue, you may please press star and 2. Participants are requested to use handsets while asking a question. Before taking a question, I would like to inform that in order to ensure that the management will be able to address all the questions from the participant, we kindly request you to please limit your question to two questions only per participant. If you have a follow-up question, please read. We'll wait for a moment while the question queue assembles. Next question comes from the line of Sakit Saurabh with Sagari Capital. Please go ahead.
Hi. Thanks for the opportunity. Am I audible? Yeah, yeah. So, first of all, Diwali greetings to the entire team. So, just to start, can you double click a bit on the Unilever partnership that you have announced? So, is it more like a CDMO or a CMO kind of a tie-up? Do we expect this to, say, meaningfully contribute to work? Our top line, and anything specific, some kind of investment also, we envisage, or is it more like, you know, co-investment where they provide some advance for us to, you know, develop that. And will this, we say, help us better utilize our Mahad Capex? So, you know, whatever additional information that you can share with Unilever will be useful.
So, Saket, as of now, because of the nature of the arrangement, we probably would not be able to share any more information apart from what has been mentioned in the filings that we have done at the stock exchange. Needless to say, this is a relationship or an arrangement which is work in progress, and as we move ahead with this relationship in a constructive way.
And when do we expect some better clarity or say deeper information on this? Is it like we just started more like an M.U. stage, so may it take, say, a couple of years before it starts, you know, formulating or taking a particular shape?
So, like I said, Sakit, I wouldn't be able to give you any information about the timelines, etc. The arrangement is a very encouraging arrangement, and as we move on, as we have more information, you will be able to see it translated into the numbers, and as and when, if there is any further information to be given to the stakeholders, we will be more than happy to share it.
So, my second question would be pertaining to Maha. So, I think this quarter we did some 4 crores, right? So, we'll end with almost one month already over for Q3. So, do we expect to, say, continue to see Maha that more like, say, single-digit revenue for, say, coming quarters as well, or any meaningful, say, ramp-up is possible, at least for the second half?
So, I think whenever we look at the Mahat question, we have to look at it from two perspectives. One perspective is like Shamal mentioned in his speech, that we are seeing more and more acceptance on the product quality and the volumes have started moving. I think as we see, but we have still not reached the optimum level. So our objective is to reach the optimum level, which we feel is like two to three quarters away. And there are conversations going on with existing as well as with newer customers, where like we have mentioned in the past, that the allocations in the RFQ also slowly scale up. So we probably are looking at the current set of operations in Mahad reaching fruition in terms of its volume utilization in the next two to three quarters. And once that happens, then we are going to look at eventual contribution of the Mahad facility towards the growth. In terms of then looking at the ability to kind of increase pricing at some customer levels, et cetera, et cetera. So to answer your question, our first objective is to achieve optimum utilization of volumes, which is two to three.
Do we expect this to at least have a break-even on an EBITDA basis for this year, or is it...
So, Sakit, what I would recommend is we already have had three questions from you. Let's kind of have more questions, and then you can probably come back again. Sure, thanks. Thank you, Sakit.
Thank you. Stay reminded to all the participants, please restrict your question to two questions only per participant. Our next question comes from the line of Sanjay Nandi with AMPL Family Office. Hello, thank you for the opportunity, sir.
Hi, Sanjay.
Yeah, hi, sir. Sir, can you just help us in painting the broader picture for next three to four years down the line with the kind of strategic tie-ups with it, with the Unilever, and the kind of growth scenario which is revealing currently?
So, I think to really kind of project and give you projections for three to four years, About a relationship which has just begun would be kind of being a little over committing. I think what we can say that we always are looking at a steady growth, which we have always mentioned as our guidance in terms of profitability and in terms of growth in sales of 10 to 12 percent. I think if we have any broader opportunities going forward, I'm sure if we are able to share it, we will share it with the investor community, or they will get translated into better numbers in terms of sales and in terms of profitability.
So you are talking, sir, we can conclude with our 12% kind of KGAR in the top line, right?
Correct.
And, sir, in the last call, also, we have concluded that we are heading towards a 10% kind of EBITDA margin. So, how long we are far from that particular target, sir?
Sir, it's again a question, which is, you know, because there are multiple, there were multiple challenges that I think not only us, but the overall industry faced because of, because of... In a large range of ingredients that we operate out of, and also increase in the unusual increase in the prices of raw materials. And I think these two, along with our continuous endeavor to kind of invest in plants, etc., etc., kind of, you know, these are the factors that are kind of impacting. The first two factors being the primary factors, which have... which have kind of prevented the EBITDA margins to be better than what they should have been if the prices were at the pre-war prices.
And what is the current competitive landscape, sir? Like, who are the peers whom we are competing with? Like, in the camphor segment, as we all know, like, a lot of foreign exports are coming to domestic market is, like, disrupted with this camphor thing.
So, I think on the camphor side, specifically, I'm not very sure about the imports, because I feel that globally, because of the alpha-pinene prices, like Shamal said, Which is a global phenomenon. We are seeing that camphor prices across the board are pretty on the higher side. Whatever is being imported is something which can't be used straight for the Pooja segment. I think camphor currently in India has a structural problem where there is a lot of large local overcapacity. Which is kind of enabling the older players and the newer capacity players to achieve a pass-through with the customer. Although the raw material prices are so high, the current camphor powder prices that you see on the ground are not the actual pass-through prices. So that's on camphor. On the ingredient side, I think we follow a very clear cycle. Where between two to three years of launching of a certain ingredient, we always endeavor to have a sizable global share of the available market. And on the fragrance and flavor piece, we compete with the Indian fragrance houses and the global fragrance houses, being a little different where our internalization program is a very strong value driver for our fragrance.
If you kindly allow, can I give you one more question, sir?
Yes, please.
Sir, can you please lay some lights on the KPEX plan of our company, sir?
On the?
KPEX plans of our company in the next two years.
So, like I said, that we were currently in a consolidation phase. We are evaluating multiple options and we are evaluating multiple products because the last one, one and a half years where we have not had substantial CapEx, we have ensured utilization of the current CapEx and continuing with our R&D pipeline and our fragrance business expansion. So, we will, in the coming quarters, inform the investor community about what our CapEx plans are.
Sir, thank you so much, sir, for your time, sir. Wish you happy Diwali in advance, sir.
Thank you, and wish you the same. Wish you the same.
Thank you, sir. I will come back and make you, sir.
Ladies and gentlemen, anyone who wishes to ask a question may press star and 1. Next question comes from the line of Rohan Jain, an individual investor. Please go ahead.
Yeah, am I audible, sir?
Hi, Rohan.
Yes, you are. Yeah. Thank you for the opportunity and congratulations on the good set of numbers, sir. Thank you. My first question would be that with consumer brands like Saraswati, Three Pine taking up over 60% of the total camper output, what margin expansions was achieved in H1FI27 by shifting volume into direct retail channels versus the bulk commodity sales?
So, we normally do not share how much do we sell as powder to the market and how much gets diverted to our B2. I think we have a very uniform balance in terms of how much we offer to our customers as camphor powder and how much we kind of offer to our B2C vertical. Both the verticals are showing a bit of a sluggishness in growth because of the camphor prices that have gone up substantially, and the Puja vertical is very price sensitive. Having said that, we are pretty happy with the pass-through that we are getting on the formulated as well as on the powders.
My next question would be that with Q2, EBITDA margins standing at approximately 7.9%, how much incremental margin expansions remains to be unlocked from the ongoing plant operational efficiency initiatives as fixed-cost absorption improves?
So, we have an operational efficiency program, which has multiple elements to it. You know, I can't give you an exact number as to what is the efficiency that we are expecting out of the whole program, because it's kind of product-driven. Having said that, the objective of the efficiency program is really not to extract a certain percentage as savings, but to ensure that the products become more... We are competitive in the global market space, which eventually leads us to achieve our targeted EBITDA of first to reach 10%.
Yes, sir. So, one last question from my side. So, in Q1, you highlighted participation in major global RFQs for the second half of 2026. So, have these customer qualification cycles been converted into firm commercial allocations for this H2 of FY27?
Yes, and that's the reason why you see increase not only in the production volume, but also in the sales volume. A reason for that is primarily because all those RFQs that you will fill up in June get operational from July and hit the numbers in this quarter.
Okay, sir. Got it. That's it from my side. All the best and happy Diwali.
Thank you, Rohan. Happy Diwali.
Thank you. Anyone who wishes to ask a question, may I press star and 1. Our next question comes from the line of Rajesh Kumar, an individual investor. Please go ahead.
Yes, sir. Am I audible?
Yes, Rajesh, you are.
Yes, sir. So my first question is, in quarter two of FI27, net debt to equity stood at 0.64. Why has it increased so much from the last quarter from 0.56?
Girish, you want to take this?
Yes, so this has been increased majorly because of the addition requirement of the Girish,
we are not able to hear you, huh? Hello, can you hear me now? Yes, yes, we can.
Yes, yes, yes. It has increased because of the little higher inventory levels as well as the increase in the receivables because sales has occurred in the last days of the quarter, so it has accumulated there.
I would also probably like to add one more point, Rajesh, that we also, apart from higher inventory, we also had to pay more for the inventory, and hence I think the larger utilization of working capital probably could be one of the additional reasons for the ratio to be a little higher.
Okay, sir. Understood. So, my next question is that with FMCG and personal care demand picking up, is the revenue mix starting to shift more favorably towards the high margin fragrance division? And what is the outlook for the fragrance order pipeline in second half of FY27 across domestic FMCG clients versus international export markets?
So I think our fragrance division has continuously over the past few years shown very encouraging growth, point number one. Point number two is I think we are seeing uniform growth across our FMCG clients in India as well as our global customers. Point number three is one of the reasons why we have this growth is also because of, A, our internalization program, where we are able to deliver better value and better performing fragrances to our customers at a lesser price. Having said that, you know, a lot of fragrance business is more of long-term. So, we are pretty confident that going forward, the fragrance business will continue to benefit and grow. And simultaneously, the other parts of the business also will grow. And hence, we are seeing this overall growth in the sales numbers. We keep the ratio one-third, one-third, one-third.
Okay. Okay, sir. Thank you. That's it from my side.
Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, anyone who wishes to ask a question, may press star and 1. Our next question comes from the line of Sagar Shah, an individual investor. Please go ahead.
I'm ordered, sir.
Yes, Sagar, you are.
I just wanted to ask you, how strong was the festive season demand with the camphor in Q2, FY27? And how was B2C sales in comparison to B2B1s? And also, has domestic camphor overcapacity and Chinese import price competition shown any signs recently?
You know, as Shamal mentioned in his speech with some numbers as well, that, you know, the Q2 numbers on the camphor side, year on year, have been lower compared to last year, and on both on formulated as well as on the powder, and that's driven by costs, the costs. Primarily because of two reasons. I think initially, pre-war, it was primarily driven by the structural mismatch in the market where there is too much of supply and less demand. But I think the reason why Q2 numbers have been relatively higher impacted is because of the general increase in the price of the camphor and the market being very, very price sensitive.
Another question following, you know, following the steep acceleration in Q2.
So, I can tell you that we currently are at around 50-55% of installed capacity at Mahad. You know, you probably will have to reach out to our IR guys or to Girish to really get the exact contribution at full capacity. But this is where we are in terms of our utilization. And we feel that in the next two to three quarters, we should be able to bridge the gap from at least get it to 80%, if not more.
That's it from my side.
Thank you.
Thanks, Sakhar.
Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, anyone who wishes to ask a question, may press star and one. Next question comes from the line of Pradeep, an individual investor. Please go ahead.
Hello, sir. Hi. Yeah, sir. Given the advance tax payment, it seems your full-year guidelines are for 50 crore net profit on a turnover of 1000 crore. Is it correct or would it be revised, sir?
Girish?
Can you repeat your question? Yes, sir. Given the advance tax payment, it seems your full year guidelines are for 50 crore net profit on a turnover of 1000 crore. Is it correct or would it be revised, sir?
Yes, yes. Correct. Yeah, okay, sir.
Thank you. Anyone who wishes to ask a question, may press star and 1. There's no further question from the participant. I know in the conference, over to the management for the closing remarks. Thank you. I know what to you, team.
Thank you all for participating in the earnings conference call. I hope we have been able to answer your questions satisfactorily. If you have any further questions or would like to know more about the company, please reach out to the IR managers at Valorum Advisors. Thank you. And wish you a very happy diwan.
