Outlook and guidance

• H2 outlook is at least flattish YoY for now; stronger growth depends on monsoon conditions and any easing in polymer prices that revives deferred demand.

• EBITDA margin recovery is expected in H2 as Hi-Tech Agri and domestic Piping recover and operating efficiencies improve; Agro Processing and overseas businesses are expected to remain supportive.

• FY27 piping revenue is expected to grow 8%-10%, with H2 demand expected to improve in non-agriculture pipe applications.

• Further working-capital improvement is expected over ~12 months, with a stronger balance sheet entering FY28; H2 remains challenging, but positive performance is expected.

• Medium-term margin aims are 12% for Plastics and 18%-19% for Hi-Tech MI; lower polymer prices could lift utilization and margins by 1%-2%.
