Meta Infotech reported its highest-ever full-year revenue of Rs 2,700 million in FY26, up 23% YoY from Rs 2,188 million, driven by strong execution of existing orders, recurring subscription revenues, and new client additions (18 new clients). However, profitability contracted sharply: EBITDA fell 27% to Rs 180 million and PAT declined 24% to Rs 109 million, with EBITDA margin compressing from ~11.2% to ~6.7%. The company attributed the decline to strategic front-loading of operating expenses — expanding into new geographies (Hyderabad, Chennai, Bangalore, Delhi), onboarding 6 new vendors, and growing headcount from 265 to 309 employees with a higher proportion of experienced technical staff. The order book stood at Rs 5,060 million (~1.9x FY26 revenue) as of May 27, 2026, providing strong revenue visibility. The company framed these as temporary investments for long-term growth.
Strong revenue momentum and a healthy order book are positives, but the sharp profitability decline and margin compression may concern short-term investors. The company is clearly prioritising scale over near-term earnings, and market reaction will likely depend on how quickly the expanded cost base translates into improved margins.
