Navin Fluorine's consolidated net profit more than doubled to INR 2.43 billion from INR 1.17 billion in the year-ago quarter. The analysts' consensus estimate was INR 1.96 billion. Revenues for the June quarter were INR 10.45 billion, up 44% on year from INR 7.25 billion. The estimate was INR 9.43 billion.

 

The specialty chemicals maker incurred total expenses of INR 7.62 billion in the June quarter, up 30% on year. The company's cost of materials consumed, which rose 44% to INR 4.42 billion, made up 58% of the company's total expenses. Depreciation and amortisation costs grew 18% to INR 417 million, other expenses rose 14% to INR 1.52 billion, employee benefit expenses increased 12% to INR 866 million, and finance costs rose 6% to INR 321 million. The company's purchases of stock-in-trade fell 54% on year to INR 18.7 million.

 

The company's earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation rose 73% on year to INR 3.57 billion. Analysts had estimated the EBITDA at INR 3.05 billion. Its EBITDA margin expanded 566 basis points to 34.2%. The company's operating profit before taxes stood at INR 2.83 billion, more than double from the year-ago quarter.

 

SEGMENT PERFORMANCE

The company's high-performance products segment grew 33% on year, led by higher volumes and realisations. The company said it will commission capital expenditure for additional hydrofluorocarbon capacity by the December quarter. This will take its capacity to produce R32 or difluoromethane to 15,000 tonnes per annum. Difluoromethane is a refrigerant widely used in residential and commercial air conditioners, cooling, and heat pump systems. Hydrofluorocarbons are synthetic gases used as refrigerants in air conditioning, refrigeration, and automotive cooling. 

 

Navin Fluorine's specialty chemicals segment grew 48% on year to INR 3.25 billion. The growth was sustained mostly due to the company's strong order book visibility. The company's multipurpose plant in Dahej, Gujarat, will be de-bottlenecked by the December quarter, thus expanding its capacity. Its Chemours project, which has a capital expenditure of INR 1.2 billion, is on track to be completed by the September quarter.

 

The company's contract manufacturing and development organisation segment grew 82% on year to INR 1.8 billion. Its portfolio saw high demand in the European market and expanded its footprint in the European supply chain. The board has approved capital expenditure of INR 900 million to set up adoption capacities for the company's advanced materials portfolio.
