Triveni Turbine Ltd. - Growth in Exports and Aftermarket keeps Outlook Healthy - Company update

Triveni Turbine reported a healthy Q4FY26 with revenue materially ahead of estimates driven by strong export-led execution, though margins were impacted by adverse mix, strategic low-margin project execution and forex MTM losses. Demand visibility remains encouraging across combined-cycle, geothermal and decarbonization-linked opportunities, supporting medium-term growth confidence. We remain constructive on the company’s positioning within the global energy efficiency and distributed power capex cycle. We raise our TP to Rs 691 (from Rs 630 earlier) driven by multiple rerating and rollover; however, we move the rating to ACCUMULATE from BUY given limited near-term upside; recommend Buy on dips.

Strong execution though margins impacted:

Triveni Turbine reported robust Q4FY26 revenue growth of 26.3% YoY to Rs 6.8bn, 8.8% above estimates, aided by healthy export execution. EBITDA grew 6.3% YoY to Rs 1.3bn, though EBITDA margin declined 354bps YoY to 18.8%, impacted by the low-margin NTPC CO₂ storage project, weaker aftermarket mix and forex MTM losses. PAT increased 7.7% YoY to Rs 1.0bn. For FY26, revenue/EBITDA/PAT grew 8.7%/3.1%/-2.6%, respectively. Export revenue rose 46% YoY in Q4FY26 and contributed 60% of quarterly revenue, highlighting improving global traction.

Broad-based inquiry momentum and exports remain key growth drivers:

Q4FY26 order inflow increased 19% YoY to Rs 7.5bn led by sharp growth in aftermarket and exports, while backlog stood at Rs 20.5bn, up 8% YoY. The management highlighted broad-based demand across combined-cycle, geothermal, thermal renewable and industrial efficiency projects. Combined-cycle opportunities remain particularly attractive, with steam turbines benefiting from rising gas turbine installations globally. The management also reiterated confidence in export growth supported by stronger geographic diversification, improving market access and higher customer acceptance in the US market .

Structural growth drivers support long-term outlook:

We believe Triveni Turbine is entering a larger structural growth cycle supported by global energy investments, industrial decarbonization, data centre-linked power demand and efficiency upgrades. The company continues to strengthen its positioning through execution reliability, servicing capabilities and technology flexibility. Export and aftermarket businesses remain structurally superior margin segments, while strategic technology projects such as the NTPC CO₂ storage initiative could create long-term optionality despite near-term margin dilution. Further, the US subsidiary turning profitable in Q4FY26 and expected operational improvement over FY27-28E should aid profitability over time.

Valuation, view & Key risks:

We forecast revenue/EBITDA/PAT CAGR of 15%/15%/17% over FY26-28E supported by improving exports, aftermarket recovery and healthy inquiry conversion. We raise valuation multiples to 45.0x Mar’28E EPS and 35.0x Mar’28E EV/EBITDA reflecting expectations of earnings growth bottoming out alongside consistently strong ROE/ROCE profile. This results in a revised TP of Rs 691. Downgrade to ACCUMULATE from BUY due to limited near-term upside, though we continue to recommend Buy on dips given favorable long-term structural growth drivers. Key risks: Delay in project execution and slowdown in global industrial capex.
