๐TJL Earnings Review 2Q FY26 โ Tariff-Driven Demand Weakness Pushes TJL into Earnings Freefall
โข PAT down 80% YoY to LKR 149.9mn as revenue fell 10% YoY; volumes dropped 5โ6% with added pressure from ASPs & product mix.
โข ๐ Margins deteriorated (GP 8.0%, EBIT 1.9%) due to sustained pricing pressure and weak demand.
โข ๐บ๐ธโ U.S. reciprocal tariffs spike on India (to 50%) severely disrupted TJLโs largest production base, worsening near-term performance.
โข ๐ป ASPs expected to decline further amid easing raw-material costs and competitive tariff-driven pricing.
โข ๐ฎ Demand weakness likely to persist mediumโlong term, with cost savings and LKR depreciation offering only limited relief.
โข โ Rating downgraded to SELL with a TP of LKR 31.10, reflecting a prolonged subdued demand outlook unless U.S. tariffs ease.
