Profitability improvement remained a key highlight of the year, supported by higher scale, stronger operating efficiencies, and disciplined cost management.

As we move into FY27, we remain optimistic about the demand environment and superior realization in caustic soda lye and are focused on strengthening our market position through operational excellence, efficient capital allocation, and enhanced sustainability initiatives. The commissioning of our renewable power infrastructure is expected to further support energy optimisation, improve long-term competitiveness, and contribute positively towards margin stability going forward."
