Essex Marine Limited reported strong double-digit growth for FY2025-26 with revenue from operations jumping 63% to Rs 6,069.26 Lakhs from Rs 3,722.47 Lakhs in the previous year. Profit after tax (PAT) grew 59% to Rs 637.34 Lakhs (vs Rs 400.26 Lakhs) and EPS stood at Rs 4.63. EBITDA margin compressed from 23.2% to approximately 17.4% due to higher raw material costs (cost of materials consumed surged 111% to Rs 5,191.95 Lakhs). The company completed its SME IPO in August 2025 raising Rs 2,301.48 Lakhs, with all funds fully deployed as per objects. Total debt reduced significantly from Rs 3,702 Lakhs to Rs 2,201 Lakhs following IPO proceeds used for repayment. Operating cash flow remained negative at Rs -85.69 Lakhs (vs Rs -88.12 Lakhs), though working capital requirements surged as inventories increased by Rs 858 Lakhs. The statutory auditor issued an unmodified (clean) opinion with no going concern issues.
Revenue and profit growth are strong, but the margin compression and negative operating cashflow are concerns. The significant debt reduction post-IPO is positive for balance sheet strength. The stock has been listed on BSE SME platform since August 2025.
