Note: None of the Directors on Crisil Ratings Limited’s Board are members of rating committee and thus do not participate in discussion or assignment of any ratings.
The Board of Directors also does not discuss any ratings at its meetings.
1 crore = 10 million
Refer to Annexure for Details of Instruments & Bank Facilities

Detailed Rationale
Crisil Ratings has removed its ratings on the bank facilities of Neogen Chemicals Ltd (NCL; part of the Neogen group) from
'Rating Watch with Developing Implications' and has reaffirming the ratings at ‘Crisil A/Crisil A1’ while assigned a
‘Negative’ outlook to the long term rating. Crisil Ratings has aslo assigned its ‘Crisil A/Negative’ rating to the non-
convertible debentures of NCL.

Crisil Ratings had placed NCL’s ratings on watch developing, following a fire breakout at one of the group’s manufacturing
plants in Dahej SEZ on March 05, 2025. The watch has been resolved now, following admittance of the group’s insurance
claim and emergence of clarity of the impact of fire on the business and financial risk profiles of the group as well as
timelines for settlement of the entire claim.

The revision in outlook reflects lower-than-expected operating performance and the expected moderation in liquidity and
financial risk profile of the company.

The group could record lower-than-expected revenue, on account of the fire and slight delay in ramp up of additional
capacities. Operating margin will also remain flattish, resulting in significantly lower cash accrual over fiscals 2026 and
2027. Timely completion of the second phase of capex towards setting up a greenfield salt and electrolytes manufacturing
unit and scale up in phase 1 capacity utilisation remain monitorable.

The company has recognized an insurance claim receivable of Rs 348.82 Crores, which represents the estimated amount
recoverable from its insurance policies. The company anticipates receiving the insurance claim, based on its estimation of
the recoverable amount with Rs 50 crore already received in June 2025 and the remaining amount expected over fiscals
2026 and 2027. The company's liquidity is contingent upon the timely receipt of the claim amount, and any delay or shortfall
could significantly impact its financial position.

Crisil Ratings will closely monitor the group's liquidity position over the medium term, particularly in light of the expected
receipt of balance insurance claim.

The group is expected to raise Rs 200 crore non-convertible debentures as a liquidity back-up during this period indicating
prudent liquidity management. This has a door-to-door tenure of 30 months with a lock-in of 24 months. The debentures are
expected to result in significant bullet repayment during fiscal 2028, which will be managed through receipt of insurance
money. In the meantime, to address the short-term needs, the company has also contracted additional unsecured limit of Rs
65 crore in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Both these will lead to higher-than-anticipated interest outflow for the group and
moderation in the capital structure over the next two fiscals.

The ratings continue to reflect the group’s established market position in the specialty chemical segment, healthy operating
efficiency and moderate financial risk profile. These strengths are partially offset by large working capital requirement,
exposure to foreign exchange volatility and to changes in government regulations.
Analytical Approach
Crisil Ratings has consolidated the business and financial risk profiles of NCL with its wholly owned subsidiaries (Neogen
Chemicals Japan Corporation Ltd [NCJCL] and Neogen Ionics Ltd [NIL]) and joint venture, Dhara Fine Chem Industries.

Together these are referred to as Neogen Group.

Please refer Annexure - List of Entities Consolidated, which captures the list of entities considered and their analytical treatment of consolidation.

Key Rating Drivers & Detailed Description


Strengths:
Strong business risk profile as indicated by established market position and healthy operating efficiency: The
group has a strong market position in developing bromine and lithium derivatives because of integrated operations and
strong clientele. The product portfolio is diversified, catering to business segments including pharmaceuticals and
agrochemicals. The group is one of the leading manufacturers of bromine and lithium-based specialty chemicals since
1989. It has a track record of over three decades and demonstrated technical capability in healthy ramp-up of
operations. The group has diverse product portfolio and final products find its application in industries such as
pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, flavours and electronic chemicals. Research and development initiatives have enabled
the shift in focus to more niche, high value-added products, from bulk bromine-based compounds. Moreover, the battery
business group is expected to have first mover advantage and the necessity to have mix of product offerings, which will
further bolster the business risk profile. Further, the group has entered into an agreement with MU Ionic Solutions
Corporation, Japan, to design electrolyte manufacturing plant. MU Ionic Solutions (MUIS) is a joint venture between
Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation (MCC) and UBE Corporation. The ongoing capacity addition in lithium-ion battery
material segment should support growth over the medium to long term.

Future performance will be supported by additional revenue from battery business, improving export demand and
offering healthy revenue visibility. Further ramping up of these diversified business segments leading to significant
contribution to overall operating profits should further improve the business risk profile of the group and remain
monitorable over the medium term.

Moderate financial risk profile: The Neogen group has a moderate financial risk profile as reflected in healthy capital
structure and debt protection metrics. Gearing was at 0.72 time as on March 31, 2025, and interest coverage ratio was
at 2.8 times in fiscal 2025. The group is undertaking major debt-funded green field capex in NIL - wholly owned
subsidiary of NCL. This capex is being done at Pakhajan, Dahej Gujarat wherein total outlay for capex is Rs 1,610
crore. This capex will result in Neogen group’s entry into lithium electrolyte, salts and additives segment catering to
battery industry. The group will be taking capex in a phased manner. Overall, draw down of the loan will be linked to the
demand scenario.

The financial risk profile is expected to remain moderate over the medium term.

Weakness:
Susceptibility to stabilisation risks associated with lithium salt project: The group is exposed to stabilisation risk
for proposed lithium salt project. However, the group's track record of calibrated expansion strategy with a prudent
funding mix of debt and equity, promoters’ experience and manufacturing technology tie-up with MU Ionic Solutions
Corporation, Japan, aid the business risk profile. Crisil Ratings will continue to monitor the execution and ramp up of the
project.

Exposure to foreign exchange volatility and changes in government regulations: The group derives around 27%
of its revenue from exports to multiple geographies and hence is exposed volatility in foreign exchange rates. However,
the risk is mitigated by imports of 45-50% providing a natural hedge and monthly price reset arrangements with its
customers to pass through foreign exchange movements. Bromine, being a corrosive and hazardous material, is subject
to environmental and other government regulations. Any adverse change in these regulations in any of the markets it
operates, could impact the business risk profile of the group.
Liquidity: Strong
Liquidity is backed by healthy cash accrual against debt obligation though bank limit utilisation remains high owing to
elongated working capital cycle. Cash and bank balance remained adequate at Rs 4.96 crore as on March 31, 2025, which
is unencumbered. The group is likely to maintain annual accrual of over Rs 100 crore over the medium term. The average
utilisation of bank limit was at 91% on average for the 12 months through June 2025. The company is expected to receive
enhancement in working capital limit. Fund raise from NCDs of Rs.200 Crores and unsecured loan of Rs.65 Crores is
expected to keep liquidity of the company strong.
Outlook: Negative
The negative outlook reflects Crisil Ratings belief that NCL’s profile may remain under pressure on account of moderation in
liquidity.
Rating sensitivity factors
Upward factors:
Higher-than-expected increase in revenue; and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (Ebitda)
increasing above 18%, leading to higher-than-expected cash accrual and debt to Ebitda ratio below 4 times
Sustained improvement in financial risk profile backed by healthy capital structure, healthy ramp up of operations and
strong debt protection metrics
Timely completion of milestones of ongoing capex along with ramp up of installed capacities

Downward factors:
Deterioration in the credit risk profile of the group, due to higher-than-expected debt, delay in ramp up of operations or
any significant cost overruns, thereby impacting the financial risk profile

7/19/25, 2:43 PM Rating Rationale
Higher-than-expected debt-funded capex or acquisition, weakening the financial risk profile with debt-to-Ebitda
remaining above 6 times
Lower-than-expected revenue growth on account of weak demand or slower-than-expected ramp up in new installed
capacity and dip in operating margin, resulting in weak cash accrual
Delay in or lower-than-expected insurance claims receipts, impacting liquidity of the group
