The Board approved the unaudited financial results for Q1 FY26 on 6 August 2025. Revenue from operations came in at Rs. 14,145.71 lakhs, up about 9% from Rs. 12,962.04 lakhs in the same quarter last year. However, the company slipped into a loss of Rs. 841.64 lakhs (EPS of -Rs. 0.99) compared to a profit of Rs. 1,590.69 lakhs a year ago. The company attributed the loss to lower product realisations while raw material prices stayed high, along with pressure from heavy imports and substitute products (Iso Nonanol). The statutory auditor CV Ramana Rao & Co issued a clean limited review report with no qualifications or observations. The Board also appointed Sri K.S.S. Aditya (APIDC nominee) as Director in place of Sri Y.S.S. Suresh and reconstituted various Board committees.
Despite higher revenue, sharp margin compression has pushed the company back into losses, which is negative for shareholders in the near term. Investors should watch for improvement in product prices and resolution of the ongoing land lease dispute with Visakhapatnam Port Authority, as both are key to returning to profitability.
