III. Other Information:
Reasons for loss or inadequate profits during the financial year 2024-25:
-
¾ The company’s performance was dragged by low margin businesses primarily in Heavy Engineering and Automotive businesses. This had largely resulted from macro issues such as global slowdown in automotive sector, customer strategy and reprioritization of outcomes etc.
-
¾ The company incurred losses in Germany, on account of slowdown with large OEM customer, resulting in significant diversion of resources and efforts towards business development and sustenance.
-
¾ The company continued to invest a significant portion of financial resources towards digital team development and enhancement of competencies. These charges had a direct impact on profitability.
Steps taken or proposed to be taken for improvement:
-
¾ The company has now identified and cordoned off low margin businesses as Non Core. A strategic advisor has been appointed to assess the business and ascertain path to profitability.
-
¾ The company has ramped down its digital team and pivoted to new age AI solutions as part of its core business. This will result in significant reduction of staff costs.
-
¾ New order acquisition and execution are the topmost priorities focused on Defence, Aerospace and ESAI domains. The Company has outlined a visionary plan and charted path to $1B revenues in the next 5 years. Resources will be utilised for this single objective.
Expected Increase in Productivity and Profits in measurable terms:
-
¾ 300bps improvement in EBITDA in FY26.
-
¾ 20% growth in topline in FY26.
-
¾ As the company pivots to a product driven approach, the current revenue mix of 20:80 (product: service) will pivot to 80:20 resulting in significant improvement in revenue per employee.
