Apollo Micro Systems Ltd at a Glance
Apollo Micro Systems Limited (AMS), established in 1985 and headquartered in Hyderabad, is a leading provider of high-performance, mission-critical solutions for the defence sector. With over four decades of experience, AMS specialises in electronic, electromechanical, and engineering design, offering end-to-end services from R&D and design to assembly, testing, and mass manufacturing.
The company serves key strategic domains such as Missile Systems, Satellite and Space Systems, Naval Systems, Avionics, and Homeland Security. AMS has developed over 700 on-board technologies, playing a vital role in weapon electronics for ground, missile, and naval defence systems.
The company builds the internal intelligence of modern weaponry, the “brain” for decision-making, the “eyes” for tracking, and the “nerves” for sensing and response, transforming simple hardware into smart, mission-ready systems.
Their robust solutions, built to endure harsh environments, also extend to secure communications, underwater electronic warfare, air defence, and customised Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) systems tailored for both defence and space applications.
Apollo Micro Systems collaborates with a wide range of marquee clients, including the Ministry of Defence, government-controlled PSUs, and leading private sector companies. Their clientele includes organizations like DRDO, Bharat Dynamics, Bharat Electronics, Adani, IndianOil, BrahMos, Tata Advanced Systems, and Xilinx, reflecting their strong presence across defence and technology sectors.
Guidance & Orderbook pipeline
The Management expects a revenue CAGR of 45-50 percent for FY26 and FY27, driven by a strong order book and the production ramp-up of multiple products, excluding acquisitions.
Margin expansion is expected in H1 FY26 due to operating leverage and a favorable product mix. However, ongoing capex may moderate margin growth in H2 FY26 and FY27. Long-term, management anticipates further margin improvement as more systems enter full-scale production from FY28 onwards.
AMS is well-positioned to benefit from a robust defence order pipeline, with Rs. 2 lakh crore in upcoming Ministry of Defence (MOD) orders over the next six months. The company plays a key role in all major missile programs, supplying 63% of the electronics and electromechanical systems for DRDO’s missile initiatives, ensuring its strong presence in both small and large defence projects.
With the growing emphasis on self-reliance through the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative, AMS is poised to capitalize on the MOD’s “one PSU + one private sector partner” model for major programs. This Make-in-India push aligns with AMS’s capabilities and strategic involvement in critical defence technologies.
Financials & Others
The company’s revenue rose by 46.47 percent from Rs. 91 crores to Rs. 134 crores in Q1FY25-26. Meanwhile, Net profit rose from Rs. 9 crores to Rs. 19 crores in the same period.
AMS has delivered strong financial performance, with a 32.7% CAGR in profit over the last five years and a median sales growth of 19.8% over the past decade. The company maintains a healthy ROCE of 14.5% and a manageable debt-to-equity ratio of 0.49.
