Forbes & Company Limited reported a sharp decline in Q1 FY26 revenue, with standalone revenue from operations falling to Rs. 2,203 lakhs from Rs. 3,536 lakhs in Q1 FY25, a drop of around 38% year-on-year. Total income came in at Rs. 2,585 lakhs versus Rs. 3,763 lakhs previously. Profit before tax was Rs. 453 lakhs (vs Rs. 647 lakhs), impacted by an exceptional charge of Rs. 252 lakhs toward impairment of investment in Forbes Bradma Optimark (formerly Forbes Macsa). Standalone PAT stood at Rs. 397 lakhs (vs Rs. 533 lakhs), with EPS of Rs. 3.08 versus Rs. 4.13. The Real Estate segment revenue halved to Rs. 1,363 lakhs, while the Coding & Industrial Automation segment remained nearly flat at Rs. 840 lakhs but widened its loss to Rs. 68 lakhs. Consolidated PAT from continuing operations was Rs. 486 lakhs versus Rs. 558 lakhs. The Board also announced a new real estate project on a 2.63-acre land parcel in Thane for an IT Park and mixed-use development, subject to approvals.
The steep revenue fall, mainly from lower real-estate project recognition this quarter, will likely weigh on near-term sentiment, though the Thane project announcement adds a growth angle. Shareholders should note the continued weakness in the Coding & Industrial Automation segment and ongoing legal overhangs (FTL insolvency, Svadeshi Mills winding-up case).
