Kaveri Seed Company Limited — Investor Meet, 13-11-2025: Analysts/Institutional Investor Meet/Con. Call Updates

Kaveri Seed reported H1 FY'26 revenue up 17.09% to ₹1,041.91 Cr and PAT up 7.9% to ₹301.45 Cr. Q2 saw a net loss of ₹15.05 Cr. Strong maize volume growth (up 29.7%), rice, and vegetable segments drove revenue, offsetting cotton's decline due to illegal seeds and higher production costs impacting margins. Management is optimistic about H2, Rabi season, and long-term maize/vegetable growth. They are de-risking the portfolio, with cotton now under 20% of revenue. R&D is a focus, new hybrids are performing well. The company anticipates returning to previous profit margins, forecasting a bullish outlook for the hybrid seed market.
