Gopal Snacks reported Q4 FY26 revenue of Rs. 409.6 Cr (29% YoY growth) with PAT of Rs. 29.9 Cr, boosted by Rs. 17.5 Cr fire insurance exceptional item. Full-year FY26 revenue stood at Rs. 1,508.2 Cr (2.7% YoY). Gross margins improved significantly to 27.7% in Q4 (vs 20.2% in Q4 FY25) due to cost optimization and raw material price relief. However, EBITDA margin compressed to 6.7% for FY26 from 7.2% in FY25 due to higher operational costs. The company successfully restored production capacity post the Rajkot fire incident with the Modasa plant now operational at 63,085 MT capacity. Distribution network expanded to 953 distributors. Snack Pellets and Gathiya segments delivered strong 23.6% and 20.6% YoY volume growth respectively.
Gross margin recovery signals improved cost management, but EBITDA margin compression raises concerns about operational cost pressures. The fire recovery progress and distribution expansion are positives. Investors should note that FY26 PAT of Rs. 73.7 Cr includes Rs. 39.3 Cr of exceptional fire insurance income, which inflates the apparent profitability.
