Headline: Supreme Petrochem Q2 FY26 Earnings Call Highlights: Key Insights for Investors

Supreme Petrochem Limited recently held its earnings conference call for Q2 and the first half of FY26, providing crucial updates for investors and analysts. The call took place on October 28, 2025, and was moderated by Purvangi Jain from Valorem Advisors.

During the call, Executive Director and CFO Rakesh Nayyar reported operating income of ₹1,100 crores for Q2, a decline from ₹1,500 crores in the same quarter last year. This decrease primarily stemmed from lower raw material prices, particularly styrene monomer, which fell from approximately $950 to $800 per metric ton. The company’s EBITDA for the quarter was ₹86 crores, and net profit after tax reached ₹48 crores.

For the first half of FY26, Supreme Petrochem reported total revenue of ₹2,487 crores, with an EBITDA of ₹216 crores and a net profit of ₹129 crores. Notably, the extended monsoon season adversely impacted demand for cooling devices, leading to lower sales volumes of 76,962 tons in Q2 compared to 74,813 tons in the same period last year.

Encouragingly, Nayyar announced the successful commencement of production at their ABS plant, which operates in collaboration with Versalis and has a capacity of 70,000 metric tons per annum. The company remains debt-free, with an investible surplus of ₹522 crores, and has recommended an interim dividend of 25%.

Looking ahead, Nayyar expressed optimism for the third and fourth quarters, anticipating a recovery in demand post-Diwali. As global market dynamics evolve, Supreme Petrochem's adaptability will be key to navigating challenges and capitalizing on emerging opportunities.
