Management commentary Looking ahead, the management is optimistic about the financial year 2026 (FY26), with stronger customer relationships, a broader market footprint, and new opportunities emerging across segments. The company is firmly focused on delivering profitable growth, with a particular emphasis on expanding Ebitda in FY26 through a combination of operational efficiencies, higher value-added offerings, and enhanced scale benefits, the management said. The company's strategic focus continues to be on high-margin and value-added products, particularly in the assemblies and now the Metal Bellows division, which the management expects to be the key growth drivers for the company for the next few years. ICICI Securities' view on Aeroflex Industries The share of the high-margin assembly segment stood at 52 per cent in Q4FY25 versus 34 per cent in Q4FY24. This reiterates the fact that the company is in the right direction to take the assembly segment share to 70 per cent in the next 2-3 years. More so, the company is also incurring a capex of increasing the assembly stations from 40 to 70 by FY26, which will lead to better product mix and higher margins. Going ahead, with increasing domestic sales, new product development, and traction through Hyd-Air engineering revenue is subject to grow at a CAGR of 21 per cent over FY24-FY27. Analysts expect the company to deliver a strong CAGR of 22.4 per cent and 30.4 per cent in revenues and PAT, respectively, over FY25-FY27. The lean balance sheet and strong cash flow generation will improve return on capital employed (ROCE) to 25 per cent in FY27 from 20.5 per cent in FY25, which will ensure the company commands a rich multiple. The brokerage firm in the Q4 result update report said that it values the company at 34 times FY27 earnings per share EPS to arrive at a fair value of ₹235 with a 'Buy' rating.
