Gopal Snacks reported FY26 revenue of ₹15,004.45 million, up 2.86% from ₹14,586.39 million in FY25. PAT surged to ₹736.53 million from ₹189.98 million in FY25, a growth of about 288%, driven by insurance recoveries from a December 2024 fire incident at its Rajkot plant. The company recorded an exceptional gain of ₹393.24 million in FY26 (vs ₹471.85 million loss in FY25), including ₹174.93 million in Q4 FY26. The board declared a 3rd interim dividend of ₹0.40 per share. Auditors issued an unmodified opinion. EBITDA margin compressed from 7.52% to 6.99% due to higher material and employee costs. Operating cash flow declined to ₹464.39 million from ₹682.82 million, reflecting working capital buildup (trade receivables up ₹328.72 million, inventories up ₹361.31 million).
The exceptional PAT growth is largely driven by one-time fire insurance recovery, while underlying revenue growth was modest at under 3%. Margin compression and higher working capital requirements could concern investors focusing on operational performance. The dividend provides shareholder return.
