COMPANY PERFORMANCE:
The Consolidated net sales for FY2025 were Rs. 1,40,380 lakhs,
decreased by 1.8% as compared to Rs. 1,42,933 lakhs in FY2024. Consolidated EBITDA for
FY2025 was reported as Rs. 15,832 lakhs as compared to Rs. 15,941 lakhs in FY2024. EBITDA
margin for the year under review was 11.28% compared to 11.15% in FY2024.
The Aerospace segment reported a growth of 19.2% y-o-y in FY2025 driven
by execution of commercial order book. This segment is positioned for continued momentum,
supported by steady progress on key programs and new projects industrialization as per the
schedule. Recent budgetary support for domestic defence procurement further positions us
to capitalize on emerging opportunities in aerospace and defence modernization across the
globe. However, supply chain constraints may persist to continue due to global
geopolitical uncertainties.
The Hydraulics segment witnessed a year-over-year growth of 2.2%.
However, performance in H2 was impacted by reduced construction activity and softer demand
across key geographies, along with a less favorable sales mix. Margins were adversely
affected due to negative margins in UK operations, primarily driven by partial charge-offs
related to redundancies as part of the ongoing rationalization of product lines between
the Swindon and Bangalore facilities. While the segment faced challenges due to muted
construction demand, strong agricultural demand supported by a favorable monsoon and the
government's continued infrastructure push are expected to drive revenue growth in
India. Margin improvement is also anticipated in the coming quarters, upon completion of
the product line rationalization between India and the UK.
The Metallurgy segment has shown an y-o-y decline of 28.9% in FY2025 as
the German economy remained in recession mainly due to a negative contribution from net
trade and a slowdown in household consumption leading to lower demand. Factors
contributing to the downturn included high energy costs, global competition coupled with
geopolitical uncertainties, and declining industrial output.
SEGMENT PERFORMANCE:
AEROSPACE & DEFENCE: The Aerospace & Defence segment
recorded a revenue of Rs. 60,785 lakhs compared to Rs. 51,009 lakhs in FY2024. Segment
EBITDA for the year was Rs. 15,783 lakhs, reported alongside Rs. 13,094 lakhs in FY2024.
In FY2025, our aerospace segment was undeniably the engine of our
success, driving both top-line growth and strong profitability. This division not only
held its dominant position but also deepened its strategic value to our operations,
consistently delivering excellent margins. A defining moment was the inauguration of the
Rear Fuselage Assembly Line for the D328eco? turboprop in Bangalore, a crucial
step in our partnership with Deutsche Aircraft. This milestone signals our successful
shift from concept to serial manufacturing, showcasing our advanced aerospace capabilities
and reinforcing our strong commitment to the "Make in India" initiative. This
ongoing collaboration has significantly enhanced our supply chain resilience, putting us
in an excellent position to capture the burgeoning opportunities in regional aviation,
directly supporting India's broader connectivity and sustainability ambitions. Even
in the face of ongoing global supply chain disruptions and commodity price pressures, our
aerospace business sustained its strong performance by rigorously industrializing secured
programs, thereby ensuring the scalability and efficiency needed to fulfill demanding
customer schedules. The A220 doors program is rapidly progressing. We've positioned
all sub-assembly and main-assembly jigs and fixtures on the shop floor, and pre-production
activities are officially underway with our fully trained team. Parts are now arriving to
support assembly, a key step in our ramp-up. We also swiftly added 30,000 sq. ft. of floor
space in just three months. The program remains on track with clear visibility and strong
momentum. First-Article Inspection is anticipated to begin this September. A strong order
book and continued revenues from large Global OEMs like Airbus A330, Airbus A220, Dassault
new work FAI and Deutsche Aircraft alongside focus on increasing business on detailed
parts at Dynamatic Manufacturing Limited (DML) is expected to ramp up the revenues in the
coming years. HYDRAULICS: The Hydraulics segment recorded a revenue of Rs. 45,804
lakhs compared to Rs. 44,834 lakhs in FY2024. Segment EBITDA for the year was Rs. 2,415
lakhs, reported alongside Rs. 3,771 lakhs in FY2024.
The Hydraulics segment maintains its position as a world leader in gear
pump manufacturing, with operations split between Bangalore, India, and Swindon, UK.
Facing a rapid and seemingly irreversible decline in European supply chain reliability
over recent quarters, we've made a strategic decision to transfer production from our
UK facility to India, with only select strategic lines remaining in the UK. This
changeover, while currently impacting our operations and incurring significant transition
costs, is projected to deliver substantial savings in H2 FY26 and establish a more robust,
long-term business structure. Government policy continues to play a pivotal role in
driving the sector forward. Supportive measures, including reduced import duties,
subsidies for agricultural equipment, and simplified credit disbursement schemes, have
enhanced affordability and accessibility for farmers. The construction equipment industry
remains integral to India's broader economic development plans and is expected to
play a critical role in enabling infrastructure-led growth.
METALLURGY: The Metallurgy segment recorded a revenue of Rs. 33,483
lakhs compared to same period last year Rs. 47,081 lakhs. Segment EBITDA was Rs. 1,004
lakhs compared to Rs. 2,467 lakhs in FY2024.
The Metallurgy division encountered ongoing challenges due to subdued
industrial demand, especially in Europe, coupled with inflationary pressures and elevated
energy costs. These factors contributed to a decline in revenues and margins for the year.
US political shifts are changing the game for Ukraine war funding and have temporarily
delayed offtake of Erla's shell production. Meanwhile, with potential reductions in
American aid, Germany and EU are stepping up, accelerating their own defence spending to
ensure security, encouraging German companies to increase defence production.
Going forward, the segment performance will be majorly driven by
availability of raw material, input commodity prices and cost of financing to end
customers. Focus on high margin product mix, rationalization of low margin products
alongside development of aerospace castings and forgings in the future is expected to
drive the business growth in the coming years.
STATE OF THE COMPANY'S AFFAIRS:
Over the years, Dynamatic Technologies has created its own brand image
and has found its niche presence in the industry. Dynamatic Technologies supplies products

are uploaded under the Investors Desk section on the Company's corporate website
www.dynamatics.com.
CRITERIA FOR DETERMINING QUALIFICATIONS, POSITIVE ATTRIBUTES, AND
INDEPENDENCE OF A DIRECTOR:
In terms of the provisions of Section 178(3) of the Companies Act, 2013
and Regulation 19 of the SEBI Listing Regulations, the Nomination and Remuneration
Committee (NRC) has formulated the criteria for determining qualifications, positive
attributes and independence of Directors, the key features of which are as follows: a.
Qualifications A transparent Board nomination process is in place that encourages
diversity of thought, experience, knowledge, perspective, age, and gender. This process
ensures that the Board has an appropriate blend of functional and industry expertise. When
recommending the appointment of a Director, the NRC considers how the individual's
functional and domain expertise will contribute to the overall skill mix of the Board. b.
Positive Attributes - Apart from the duties of Directors as prescribed in the
Companies Act, 2013, the Directors are expected to demonstrate high standards of ethical
behavior, communication skills, and independent judgment. They are also expected to abide
by the respective Code of Conduct applicable to them. c. Independence - A Director
will be considered independent if he / she meets the criteria laid down in Section 149(6)
of the Companies Act, 2013 and Regulation 16(1)(b) of the Listing Regulations.
PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF THE BOARD, ITS COMMITTEES, AND INDIVIDUAL
DIRECTORS:
The Board of Directors has conducted an annual evaluation of its own
performance, board committees, and individual directors in accordance with the provisions
of the Act and SEBI Listing Regulations. This evaluation was guided by criteria and
frameworks adopted by the Board. Input from all directors was considered, focusing on
factors like board composition, processes, information and functioning, risk management
and strategy, corporate social responsibility, organizational performance and structure,
and effectiveness of board processes, among others.
The performance of committees was evaluated by the board with inputs
from committee members, focusing on criteria such as committee composition and
effectiveness of meetings. In a separate meeting of independent directors, the performance
of non-independent directors, the Board as a whole, and the Chairman was evaluated,
incorporating views from both executive and non-executive directors. The Nomination and
Remuneration Committee, along with the Board, reviewed individual director performance,
considering factors like preparedness, contribution to meetings, interpersonal skills, and
strategic input. The subsequent board meeting further discussed the performance of the
Board, committees, and individual directors. Evaluation of Independent Directors was
conducted by the entire Board, excluding the director under evaluation.
The Annual Performance Evaluation is conducted in a paperless manner,
with documents securely uploaded and accessed electronically. This approach has led to
significant benefits, including paper conservation, reduced cycle time for the evaluation
process, and enhanced confidentiality of information.
INTERNAL CONTROLS SYSTEMS AND THEIR ADEQUACY:
The Board has implemented policies and procedures to ensure the orderly
and efficient conduct of its business, encompassing adherence to the Company's
policies, safeguarding its assets, and preventing and detecting frauds and errors.
Additionally, measures are in place to ensure the accuracy and completeness of accounting
records and the timely preparation of reliable financial disclosures.
The Company has implemented adequate systems for internal control,
tailored to its size and complexity. These systems ensure the safeguarding and protection
of all assets, as well as the proper authorization, recording, and reporting of
transactions. Furthermore, the Company has established checks and balances to verify the
accuracy and reliability of accounting data. All related processes are thoroughly
documented, and steps are taken to ensure compliance with internal control systems. Clear
delineation of roles and responsibilities among stakeholders involved in the process
further reinforces the effectiveness of these controls. The Internal Auditors conduct
independent evaluations of internal controls and concurrently audit a majority of
transactions in terms of value. To ensure the independence of the audit and compliance
functions, they report directly to the Audit Committee of the Board. Additionally, a CEO
& CFO Certificate, included in the Corporate Governance Report, confirms the existence
and effectiveness of internal controls and underscores their responsibility to report
deficiencies to the Audit Committee and rectify them. Throughout the year, these controls
were thoroughly tested, and no material weaknesses in design or operation were reported.

Secretarial Auditors have not reported any instances of frauds committed in the Company by
its officers or employees, to the Audit Committee under Section 143(12) of the Act.

Exchange Earnings & Outgo
(Pursuant to Section 134(3)(m) of the Companies Act, 2013 read with
Rule 8(3) of The Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014) A. Conservation of Energy
All our facilities in India and abroad are built with the environment
in mind and the processes are designed for efficiency in usage of resources, energy
conservation and to ensure that no waste is transmitted into the environment. The
industrial complexes are highly energy efficient and completely non-polluting. This has
been made systematic and quantifiable through the implementation of ISO 14001.
1) The steps taken or impact on conservation of energy The Company has
implemented a water balance system to optimize usage, resulting in a savings of 12,480 KL
of water and reducing costs by Rs. 12,48,000.
2) The steps taken by the Company for utilizing alternate sources of
energy The Company has partnered with a private firm for rooftop solar, utilizing 7,25,000
kWh of solar power for its operations and saving Rs. 21,75,000 in energy costs. This
initiative supports its efforts to reduce carbon footprint and promote sustainability.
3) The capital investment on energy conservation equipment: Nil
4) The Company has installed EV charges for vehicles in the campus.
Thus, it is in the process of reducing the carbon footprint by going green.
B. Technology Absorption
1) The efforts made towards technology absorption. Research &
Development plays a vital role in developing and implementing new technologies to enhance
our operational efficiency. Dynamatic Hydraulics designs and builds bespoke geared
products for farm mechanization, construction, forestry, mining, material handling, and
industrial machines. Most products are developed using simulations of actual operating
conditions, followed by extensive user trials. The company uses advanced software like
Creo-III, SolidWorks, Ansys, and AMESim, with rapid prototyping and validation labs in
India and the UK. The company is engaged in state-of-the-art 3D designs using software
such as CATIA V5, Unigraphics NX, and Mastercam for their design and development
activities meeting global OEM standards. Holding several patents, the R&D team in both
countries comprises experts in application engineering, product design and validation,
process design, material science, and integrated system design. Engineering teams
collaborate closely with leading government and private research institutes in India, the
UK, and the US, including DSIO, IIT Kanpur, IISc, Bath University, and MSOE. Aerospace and
Hydraulics units in India and the UK, along with Automotive units in India and Germany,
work together to develop solutions and enhance synergy across the group.
The Company's Research & Development is overseen by the
Board-level Technology & Strategy Development Committee, which guides R&D strategy
and addresses key technology issues. The Committee regularly reviews and updates required
skills, competencies, structure, and processes to ensure R&D initiatives support the
Company's sustained long-term growth.
2) Some of the benefits derived are product improvement, cost
reduction, new product development or import substitution.
R&D and innovation remain integral to the Company's growth,
profitability, sustainability, and contribution to nation-building. The Dynamatic Science
Lab, formed by consolidating research and technology functions, enhances value by
leveraging skills and expertise to create new business opportunities.
3) Imported technology (imported during the last three years reckoned
from the beginning of the financial year) Dynamatic Technologies has in-house design and
engineering teams in India, the UK, and Germany, leveraging their expertise to develop
world-class products and solutions globally. We focus on import substitution and Make in
India initiatives rather than importing technologies. Our efforts have been recognized by
the Prime Minister and honored with several indigenization awards.
