Summary of Wari Energies Limited Earnings Call Q2_2025

• Diversification of supply chains is another important demand driver, with countries like the United States and India pursuing a “China Plus One” strategy.
• India has set a target of 500 GW of renewable energy by 2030, translating to 60-70 GW of solar power annually.
• This target does not even include the potential demand from data centers, EV charging, and the expected hydrogen boom.
• The combination of solar and batteries is expected to be a leading solution for firm and dispatchable renewable energy globally.
• Solar is viewed as a multi-decadal growth story that is just getting started.

Business Segments

• Exports constituted 27% of the business mix in FY25, down from 60% in FY24. This shift is attributed to cyclical factors rather than structural issues like competition.
• The retail segment is also experiencing strong growth, currently contributing 23% of the overall business. Management believes it has massive growth potential.
• Wari Energies Limited is expanding beyond solar into other energy transition areas like green hydrogen and battery energy storage systems.
  • The company is setting up an electrolyzer manufacturing plant and plans to announce details within the next two months.
  • The board has approved a ₹600 crore investment in renewable power infrastructure to support the broader energy transition strategy.

Margin Guidance

• Management expects overall profitability to improve by 200 to 300 basis points due to backward integration through the new cell manufacturing capacity.
• This guidance is based on a blended approach, and the profit potential could be significantly higher with full integration.
• The company aims to maximize profit potential through strategic configuration of orders from its manufacturing facilities in India and the US.

Key Risks

• Changes in US trade policy, particularly the potential for anti-dumping and countervailing duties, pose a risk to the company’s US operations. Management is monitoring the situation and expects clarity in January.
• Competition from Southeast Asian countries is another potential risk, although it was not a factor in the reduced export mix this year.

• By the end of FY25, Wari Energies Limited expects to have a total manufacturing capacity of 15 GW (13.3 GW in India and 1.6 GW in the US).
• By FY27, the company projects 21 GW of module capacity and 11 GW of cell capacity in India, plus potential additions in the US.
