Management Commentary:
Mr. S.S. Sandhu, Chairman, commented, “Over the past five years, we have built a solid foundation for growth and profitability, and I am confident that our strategic initiatives will continue to drive success in the years to come. Our focus on expanding domestic demand, coupled with the pursuit of global partnerships, particularly in the silver contacts segment, positions us favourably for future success. We expect robust growth in the domestic market to continue, and we are prepared to take advantage of the anticipated rebound in the USA. Strategically, we remain focused on expanding our product lines and leveraging our research and development capabilities to drive forward integration. Our financial strength ensures that we remain a debt-free company and are ready for any inorganic expansion should a strong opportunity present itself.”
CFO Mr. Rajeev Ranjan added, “Shivalik is well-positioned for long-term growth, underpinned by strong market tailwinds, a robust balance sheet, and solid financial performance. The Company also benefitted from a Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, adding ~₹8 crore in cash and ~₹12 crore as other income for a significantly raised PAT. Our consistent earnings growth, highlighted by the 43.98% CAGR in EPS, demonstrates our commitment to delivering substantial shareholder value. Looking ahead, we anticipate steady growth recovery in the Atlantic region and continued robust demand from Asia. During FY2024, we formalized major contracts, foreshadowing a promising business pipeline. Additionally, the recent addition of a property provides sufficient headroom for our forward integration and expansion of assembly lines.”
