Josts Engineering Company Ltd submitted the newspaper publication of its unaudited financial results for Q2 FY26 (ended Sept 30, 2025) and H1 FY26. On a standalone basis, Q2 revenue rose to Rs. 4,776 lakhs from Rs. 4,003 lakhs in Q1 FY26, but net profit after tax stood at just Rs. 123 lakhs versus Rs. 410 lakhs in Q2 FY25 (a drop of roughly 70% year-on-year). For H1 FY26, total income was Rs. 8,779 lakhs versus Rs. 11,175 lakhs in H1 FY25, with net profit after tax falling sharply to Rs. 183 lakhs from Rs. 769 lakhs. Consolidated results for H1 FY26 showed total income of Rs. 11,022 lakhs and net profit after tax of Rs. 139 lakhs, down from Rs. 11,940 lakhs and Rs. 879 lakhs respectively a year ago. The board meeting approving the results was held on November 1, 2025.
Sharply weaker YoY profits despite stable-to-improving quarterly revenue suggest significant margin pressure, which is negative for shareholders and may weigh on the stock. Separately, the company recently allotted 18,47,913 equity shares via a rights issue (5 shares for every 27 held) at a premium of Rs. 269, which could dilute existing shareholders but also strengthen the capital base.
