What the record says.
CCL Products reported a strong Q1 FY26 with revenue of ₹1,058 crore (up 37% YoY), crossing the ₹1,000 crore milestone for the first time. EBITDA grew 23% YoY to ₹161.43 crore, driven by double-digit volume growth and better product mix. PAT was flat at ₹72.45 crore due to higher interest and depreciation from recent capacity expansions. Domestic branded business contributed ₹150 crore, with ₹100 crore from B2C. Green coffee prices have softened 20-30% but remain volatile, keeping buyers tentative. Management maintained EBITDA growth guidance of 15-20% and expects debt to reduce from ₹1,671 crore to ~₹1,200 crore by March 2026. Key risk: sustained price volatility could delay order conversion and margin recovery.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Management reiterated 15-20% EBITDA growth for the full year, in line with volume growth.
- Net debt expected to reduce from ₹1,671 crore to ~₹1,200 crore by March 2026, aided by lower working capital and cash flows.
- UK branded business (Percul) expected to double revenue from ~₹15-16 crore last year to ~₹30 crore this year.
- Domestic branded revenue guided to cross ₹400 crore for the full year, with Q1 already at ₹150 crore.
Risks flagged
- Prices have softened but remain volatile with daily fluctuations of ~$100, making buyers tentative and delaying long-term contracts.
- 50% tariff on Brazil could shift trade flows, but uncertainty around exemptions and implementation may affect sourcing and pricing.
- Interest cost at ₹34 crore per quarter is at peak levels; reduction depends on debt repayment and lower working capital, with a lag effect.
- An analyst raised customer feedback about taste changes due to blend adjustments; management claims rigorous consumer testing but risk remains.
Key quotes
- This incidentally is the first time we achieved a turnover of rupees 1,000 crores in a quarter.
- The right way is to look at your AITA growth numbers... we have given a guidance of 15 to 20% volume growth and IITA growth year and year.
- We don't buy inventory at all... we buy after we have sold.
