Score context (latest 12 quarters)
Strong visibility maintained with ₹14B of previously won orders starting production in FY25 and another ₹10B in FY26. Management targets 50% carbon neutrality by FY30 and expects early payback for the Stöferle acquisition funded via internal accruals.
Quarter summary
- Successful pivot towards high-value 4W products, evidenced by a new Technical Assistance Agreement for 4W suspension and significant new casting/brake orders from Tata Motors and Mahindra.
- Resilience in the European segment through astute management of energy costs and aggressive capture of market share from competitors during a period of regional stagnation.
Rationale
- Consolidated PAT grew 21.1% YoY (₹1.84B), significantly outstripping consolidated revenue growth of 11.3% (₹28.8B), reflecting strong operating leverage and cost control.
- Exceptional outperformance in the European market where subsidiaries grew revenue by 16.1% YTD despite a 0.4% decline in regional car sales; Q3 European EBITDA grew 27.4% YoY.
Management indicated high visibility with Rs. 10 billion of new business starting SOP in FY26. Major projects including the AURIC Bidkin 2W alloy wheel plant (3.6m units capacity) and battery pack plant (SOP Jan 2026) are on track. KTM orders are resuming in June 2025.
Quarter summary
- Full strategic pivot towards 4-wheelers and EV components with the SOP of the AURIC Shendra casting plant (Rs. 2.75bn order book) and new battery pack facility.
- Operational excellence in Europe, defying regional headwinds through premium OEM relationships (BMW, VW, JLR) and non-auto diversification.
Rationale
- Exceptional order book execution with Rs. 11.99 billion in total India wins for FY25 (excluding Bajaj), of which Rs. 10.82 billion is new business, providing high revenue visibility for FY26-27.
- Strategic pivot toward high-value segments is materializing: 37% of FY25 new orders are for EVs (Rs. 4.39 billion) and 34% for the 4-wheeler segment, including a major Rs. 3 billion per annum battery pack order starting SOP in Jan 2026.
Strong visibility maintained; Rs 1,150 Cr of new business SOP scheduled for FY26. Planned CAPEX of over Rs 800 Cr for FY26 to fund ABS expansion (2.4m additional units) and new product lines. ABS revenue potential estimated at 10x current levels by FY30.
Quarter summary
- Transformation from a 2W/3W component player to a diversified EV and 4W supplier, evidenced by breakthrough orders with Tata Motors and JLR.
- Aggressive capacity expansion in high-growth areas including a new 3.6m unit alloy wheel plant and the AURIC Shendra die-casting facility.
Rationale
- Material regulatory tailwind from the proposed MoRTH mandate for 100% ABS on >50cc 2Ws by Jan 2026; Endurance is the only domestic player in this domain and is expanding capacity from 0.64m to 3m+ units to capture a projected 10x market opportunity.
- Significant outperformance vs. industry: Standalone revenue grew 10.1% YoY despite 2W industry volumes declining 1.6% (SIAM), driven by increased content per vehicle and market share gains in brakes and suspensions with TVS, Hero, and Suzuki.
Management maintains high visibility with ₹3,500 Cr p.a. of won orders expected to reach peak execution by FY28. They expect to secure more than ₹1,500 Cr of new business in the next 12-18 months based on a ₹4,209 Cr RFQ pipeline. ABS capacity utilization of 640,000 units p.a. is guided for Q4 FY26.
Quarter summary
- Aggressive diversification into the EV ecosystem with the commencement of battery pack manufacturing (SOP Jan 2026) and record H1 turnover at Maxwell (BMS) of ₹74 Cr.
- Major capacity ramp-up in the South India market via a new Chennai plant for disc brakes (3 million units) to better serve TVS, Yamaha, and Royal Enfield.
Rationale
- Strong top-line outperformance with consolidated revenue growing 22.6% YoY to ₹3,603.8 Cr, significantly ahead of the domestic 2W industry growth of 10.3%.
- Massive strategic pivot toward high-value electronics and safety; ABS capacity is being expanded five-fold to 2.4 million units p.a., and the EV order book (including Bajaj) has reached ₹1,195 Cr per annum.
Strong visibility for the next 12-18 months with expected new business wins exceeding ₹1,500 crores; four new greenfield plants to deliver full financial impact in H2 FY27.
Quarter summary
- Strategic pivot towards electronic subsystems and EV components, with Maxwell BMS revenue (₹114 Cr) already surpassing the previous full fiscal year.
- Successful non-auto diversification through Solar Damper exports to Spanish and U.S. clients, with a new dedicated plant in Sanand nearing completion.
Rationale
- Consolidated revenue and EBITDA showed robust growth of 26.5% and 30.4% YoY respectively, demonstrating strong operational execution despite macroeconomic headwinds in Europe.
- Massive order book momentum with ₹1,265.5 crores in new business wins (excluding Bajaj) during 9M FY26 and a high-visibility RFQ pipeline of ₹4,200 crores.
