Amara Raja Energy & Mobility Q1 results analysis: Brokerages view 

Nuvama Institutional Equities | Buy | Target cut to 1,120 from ₹1,180

The brokerage cut the target based on 15x Sep-27E earnings per share (EPS) (earlier Mar-27E) for the lead acid battery business, ₹169 per share for the lithium business at 1x P/B, and ₹ 42 per share for other investments. It added: Factoring in lower growth in industrials/exports, higher traded mix and cost pressures, we are cutting FY26E/27E Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (Ebitda) by 10 per cent/6 per cent.
 
“We are building in FY25–28E revenue/EPS compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7 per cent/10 per cent,” Nuvama’s report read.

Motilal Oswal | Neutral | Target: ₹1,030

Analysts reckon that while the market is optimistic about the company’s Li-ion initiative, they are cautious about its potential returns. The company's venture into the lithium-ion business is strategically sound, given the opportunities in the segment and risks facing its core business. However, there are notable challenges: market opportunities are limited by existing OEM partnerships; the low-margin nature of the lithium-ion business is likely to dilute returns; and the long-term viability of the technology remains uncertain despite the large capital investment. Thus, the brokerage has cut its FY26/FY27 EPS estimates by 8 per cent/2 per cent to factor in a weaker-than-expected performance in Q1.
 
Additionally, the company’s stock is trading around 21.1x FY26E /17.2x FY27E EPS, which appears fairly valued. Thus, no change in rating or target.
