Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Ltd. reported revenue of ₹3,136 cr for July to September 2024, +11.6% on the year and +0.2% on the quarter. It is the highest quarterly revenue in the last 6 quarters on record.
Operating profit (EBITDA) was ₹441 cr, a margin of 14.1%, −52 bps on the year and +33 bps on the quarter. Over the last 6 quarters the margin has ranged from 13.3% to 15.1%, averaging 14.2%. Operating costs grew +12.2%, faster than revenue at +11.6%, so operating profit grew less than sales.
Net profit was ₹241 cr, +6.6% on the year and −1.6% on the quarter, with earnings per share of ₹13.15. Profit before other income, one-offs and tax grew 8.9%, so the profit growth came from the business itself. The tax rate of 26% is in line with its recent average.
EV businesses are read on volumes and on how far losses narrow as they scale; incentives can be a material part of revenue. The quarterly statements do not carry volumes, incentive income and cash burn; those come with the filing read.
On earnings per share of ₹53.77 over the last four quarters, the stock at ₹744.80 trades at 13.9 times trailing earnings.
