What the record says.
Eicher Motors reported a steady Q2 FY25 with consolidated revenue of INR 4,263 crore (+3.6% YoY) and PAT of INR 1,100 crore (+8.3% YoY), aided by VECV's profit share. Royal Enfield volumes were flat at ~225k units, but retail momentum surged during the festive season, with October recording 100,000+ units—the best-ever monthly sales. The company is pivoting from margin optimization to volume growth, investing in marketing and product launches (Guerrilla 450, Classic 650, Bear 650) while maintaining EBITDA margin at 25.5% (down 90bps YoY due to launch costs). VECV outperformed a shrinking CV industry, growing 6.2% in sales. Guidance points to sustained demand driven by new products and market activation, though international headwinds (OBD2B transition) and competitive pressures remain risks.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Management plans continued market activation and product-level campaigns to sustain demand post-festive season.
- With pro-growth budget and infrastructure investments, VECV anticipates industry recovery in the second half.
- First electric motorcycle under new brand Flying Flea to launch in early 2026, with 200+ strong EV team and 28 patents filed.
- Deliveries of Eicher Pro 6355 LNG trucks have started, with ramp-up expected in coming quarters.
Risks flagged
- Upcoming OBD2B norms from Jan 2025 may cause pre-buy and inventory distortions in Europe, impacting export volumes.
- Increased spending on product launches, warehousing, and marketing led to 90bps YoY margin decline; sustainability of margins is uncertain if growth slows.
- Despite revenue growth, VECV EBITDA margin fell to 7.1% (down 70bps YoY), while peers improved; management cited need for better operating leverage.
- Weakness in Latin America and Thailand, along with disruptions in traditional markets, pose risks to international growth trajectory.
Key quotes
- We are not chasing perfect margin, but I'm absolutely absolute margin. We're happy, and the trajectory is quite okay.
- The desire is back. There is an interest, which I'm just seeing once again with a lot of positivism, and that's why the brand is actually now vibrant once again.
- We are approaching EV with the same singularity focus and unconventionality with which we have grown the global mid-size market in the IC world.
