Acuité Ratings has reaffirmed Global Surfaces Limited's long-term rating at ACUITE BBB+ and short-term rating at ACUITE A2 on bank facilities of Rs. 143.10 crore. However, the outlook has been revised from 'Stable' to 'Negative', signaling growing credit concerns. The company's financials have deteriorated sharply — FY25 revenue declined to Rs. 207.64 crore from Rs. 225.29 crore, and the company slipped into a loss with PAT of Rs. -28.90 crore versus a profit of Rs. 19.78 crore in FY24. EBITDA margins collapsed to 0.93% from 16.61%, interest coverage fell to 0.59 times from 6.09 times, and DSCR dropped to 0.23 times. The negative outlook reflects concerns over the Dubai plant stabilization, weak debt protection metrics, stretched liquidity, and forfeited warrants worth Rs. 150 crore.
The negative outlook raises the risk of a future rating downgrade, which could increase borrowing costs and limit access to credit for shareholders. Persistent losses, weak cash flows, and deteriorating financial health may weigh on investor sentiment and the stock price in the near term.
