Risk Management

The Company recognizes that effective risk management is integral to achieving its strategic objectives and ensuring sustainable business growth. Accordingly, the Company has established a robust risk management framework to identify, assess, monitor and mitigate risks arising from internal as well as external factors that may impact its business operations.

The Companys Risk Management Policy provides a structured approach for identifying and managing key business risks within the risk appetite approved by the Board of Directors. Risk mitigation measures are periodically reviewed and integrated into the Companys strategic, business and operational planning processes to enhance resilience and support informed decision-making.

The Company has constituted a Risk Management Committee in accordance with the applicable provisions of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The Committee oversees the implementation of the risk management framework and periodically reviews key enterprise risks and mitigation measures. Details of the composition and meetings of the Risk Management Committee are provided in the Corporate Governance Report forming part of this Annual Report.

Global Economic Volatility Risk

The Companys business performance and growth are influenced by the overall macroeconomic environment in India and global markets. Economic conditions such as fluctuations in GDP growth, inflation, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, liquidity, changes in government policies, geopolitical developments and global trade dynamics may have an impact on business sentiment, customer demand and the overall operating environment.

In addition, uncertainties arising from global economic slowdowns, recessionary trends, supply chain disruptions, trade restrictions and volatility in international financial markets may indirectly affect the Indian economy and the Companys business operations. Such developments could influence the availability and cost of capital, demand for the Companys products and services, input costs and overall profitability.

The Company continuously monitors macroeconomic developments and market conditions and adopts appropriate business and financial strategies to mitigate potential risks. While these measures enhance the Companys resilience, any prolonged adverse changes in the domestic or global economic environment may have an impact on the Companys business operations, financial performance and future growth prospects.

Business and Regulatory Risk

The Company continues to pursue its strategic objective of expanding its global footprint and strengthening its presence in international markets. During the financial year 2025-26, the Company completed strategic acquisitions in the Netherlands and Italy, further enhancing its manufacturing capabilities, product portfolio and access to key international markets. The Company also has an established presence through its offices in the United Kingdom and the United States, enabling it to serve customers across major global markets more effectively.

As the Company expands its international operations, it is exposed to various risks and uncertainties, including geopolitical developments, changes in economic conditions, foreign exchange and interest rate fluctuations, evolving competitive landscapes, local customer preferences, supply chain disruptions, workforce availability, differences in legal and regulatory frameworks, protection of intellectual property rights and extended receivable cycles. These factors may adversely affect the Companys ability to execute its global growth strategy, expand market share and achieve the expected financial and operational benefits from its international operations.

Further, the Companys international business is subject to diverse and evolving regulatory requirements governing the manufacture, registration, marketing and sale of medical devices across various jurisdictions. Regulatory approvals, certifications and product registrations are required to be obtained and, in many cases, periodically renewed or recertified. Any changes in regulatory requirements, delays in obtaining or renewing approvals, or non- compliance with applicable laws may result in increased compliance costs, restrictions on product sales, product recalls or other regulatory actions, which could adversely impact the Companys business operations, financial performance and growth prospects. The Company continuously monitors regulatory developments across the jurisdictions in which it operates and has established robust quality, regulatory and compliance systems to support timely compliance with applicable requirements and mitigate associated risks.

Foreign Exchange Risk

The Company derives a significant portion of its revenue from exports and, accordingly, is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Volatility in exchange rates may have an impact on the Companys revenues, margins, cash flows and overall financial performance. While the Company periodically reviews and revises product prices, it may not always be possible to fully pass on the impact of adverse currency movements to customers in international markets.

To mitigate foreign exchange risk, the Company follows a prudent risk management framework that includes natural hedging through imports and foreign currency payables, the use of forward exchange contracts and other appropriate hedging instruments, wherever considered necessary, in accordance with its Board-approved Foreign Exchange Risk Management Policy. The Companys treasury function continuously monitors foreign currency exposures and market movements to manage the associated risks effectively.

While these measures help reduce the impact of currency volatility, significant or prolonged fluctuations in foreign exchange rates may nevertheless adversely affect the Companys financial performance and cash flows.

Competition Risk

The medical devices industry is highly competitive and continues to attract new domestic and international participants, resulting in increased competition across product categories and markets. Competitive pressures arising from pricing, technological advancements, product innovation, regulatory compliance and evolving customer expectations may impact the Companys market share and profitability.

To sustain its competitive advantage, the Company continues to invest in research and development, product innovation, quality enhancement and manufacturing excellence. The Company focuses on delivering high-quality, value-driven products at competitive prices while maintaining stringent quality standards and regulatory compliance across its operations.

The Company also continues to strengthen its presence in both domestic and international markets through strategic expansion initiatives, product portfolio diversification and customer-centric solutions. Ongoing investments in advanced technologies, operational efficiency and quality systems enable the Company to enhance its competitiveness, support long-term growth and reinforce its leadership position in the industry.

Human Resources Risk

The Companys continued success depends significantly on its ability to attract, develop and retain skilled professionals across its business functions. The loss of key talent or the inability to recruit and retain qualified personnel could adversely affect business operations, innovation, customer relationships and long-term growth.

To address this risk, the Company has implemented comprehensive talent management and employee engagement initiatives focused on attracting, developing and retaining a high-performing workforce. These include competitive compensation and benefits, structured learning and development programmes, leadership development initiatives, performance-based rewards and recognition, and a safe, inclusive and engaging work environment.

The Company also promotes a culture of transparency, collaboration and continuous learning, which strengthens employee engagement and supports long-term retention of skilled professionals. These initiatives enable the Company to build a resilient workforce capable of supporting its strategic objectives and sustainable growth.

Corporate Governance

As a listed entity, the Company is required to comply with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 ("SEBI Listing Regulations") and other applicable statutory and regulatory requirements. Any non-compliance with these requirements may result in regulatory actions, penalties and reputational risks.
