Chadha Papers reported weak H1 FY26 results with the company swinging into a loss. Revenue from operations for H1 FY26 was largely flat at Rs 23,822.47 lakhs vs Rs 23,871.74 lakhs in H1 FY25, though Q2 FY26 standalone revenue grew sharply YoY to Rs 11,590.55 lakhs from Rs 8,237.13 lakhs. However, profit after tax turned negative at a loss of Rs 603.95 lakhs in H1 FY26 versus a profit of Rs 446.28 lakhs in H1 FY25, translating to a loss per share of Rs 5.92. Total expenses rose to Rs 24,739.45 lakhs with finance costs climbing to Rs 582.13 lakhs. Cash flow from operations was sharply negative at Rs (2,114.10) lakhs compared to a positive Rs 5,544.09 lakhs for full year FY25, and total borrowings rose to Rs 11,527.65 lakhs against equity of just Rs 5,607.15 lakhs.
The swing to a loss, negative operating cash flow, and rising debt against shrinking equity signal significant stress on the company's finances. Shareholders should expect short-term pressure on the stock given deteriorating profitability, weak cash generation, and a debt-to-equity ratio above 2x. The expired factory land lease, though not flagged by management as material, remains a risk overhang.
