Jagran Prakashan Limited, publisher of Dainik Jagran, reported weak Q3FY26 results. Standalone operating revenue fell to Rs 418.16 crores from Rs 433.01 crores year-on-year, with ad revenue down to Rs 269.80 crores and digital revenue flat at Rs 20.60 crores. Standalone operating profit dropped sharply to Rs 64.32 crores (from Rs 79.06 crores), partly hit by Rs 5.76 crores in one-time labour code provisions, while PAT slipped to Rs 52.43 crores (from Rs 59.68 crores) and EPS fell to Rs 2.41 from Rs 2.74. On a consolidated basis, Q3 revenue declined to Rs 476.71 crores and PAT fell to Rs 55.17 crores, with the Digital (print) segment posting a loss and subsidiary Midday Infomedia slipping to a Rs 1.58 crore loss. The 9-month picture is brighter on PAT (up ~23% to Rs 185.50 crores standalone, Rs 178.87 crores consolidated) boosted by a one-time Rs 31.80 crores Keyman insurance maturity and resilient PBT growth of about 16%. CRISIL reaffirmed its AA+/Stable long-term and A1+ short-term ratings.
Q3 numbers signal near-term pressure on the stock, with core ad revenue and margins contracting, though the 9-month PAT growth and strong credit rating offer some comfort for long-term shareholders.
