Escorts Kubota reported a steady Q1 FY26 with consolidated revenue from continuing operations at ₹2,500.1 crore and EBITDA margin of 12.9%, up 16 bps YoY. PAT from continuing operations stood at ₹369.5 crore, boosted by an exceptional gain of ₹76 crore from land sale. The agri machinery segment saw EBITDA margin expansion of 92 bps to 12.6%, aided by softer material costs, while construction equipment margins fell sharply to 5.8% due to inventory clearance of old emission-norm products. Tractor domestic volumes dipped marginally to 28,848 units, but exports surged 80.3% to 1,733 units, driven by Kubota network orders. Management maintained FY26 tractor industry growth guidance of mid-to-high single digits, with new product launches (Promax, Kubota MU series, wetland series) expected to support market share recovery from Q4. Key risks include rising metal prices pressuring margins from Q2 and continued regional mix headwinds in tractor sales.
