EKC Stock Summary · February 2025

In Q3 FY25, the company demonstrated robust standalone revenue growth of 18.2% year-over-year, primarily fueled by strong domestic demand in the CNG sector, despite facing challenges in international markets like the U.S. and Dubai that have pressured margins. The ongoing tax classification dispute poses a potential liability, yet management remains committed to compliance and operational efficiency. Optimism surrounds the CNG market, bolstered by government support for green initiatives, while strategic investments in Egypt signal a proactive approach to future growth. However, the volatility in overseas operations, particularly in project-based revenue recognition, underscores the need for improved clarity and profitability management. Overall, the company is well-positioned to leverage emerging opportunities in sustainable fuel alternatives while addressing operational challenges.
