Pritish Nandy Communications reported Q3 FY26 revenue of Rs 976.76 lakhs, sharply higher than Rs 302.93 lakhs in Q3 FY25, driven by a licensing deal with Shemaroo Entertainment for global broadcasting and streaming rights of 18 titles over 11 years. Despite strong revenue growth, the company swung to a net loss of Rs 1,021.81 lakhs for the quarter due to a material exceptional write-down of Rs 1,756.09 lakhs (standalone) on its content library value, reflecting weaker demand and lower monetisation potential for older film titles in today's OTT-driven market. For the nine months ended Dec 2025, revenue grew ~36% YoY to Rs 3,517.12 lakhs, but the company posted a loss of Rs 1,050.72 lakhs (vs Rs 55.80 lakh loss in 9M FY25) after the write-down, partly offset by a Rs 442.01 lakh deferred tax reversal. The company stressed the write-down has no cash flow impact and no continuing effect on regular operations. The statutory auditor issued an unmodified (clean) limited review opinion but drew attention to the exceptional item and two ongoing legal recovery matters.
The headline loss is a one-time, non-cash write-down of legacy content value and is not expected to affect future operations, but it does signal the company is acknowledging that older content libraries are worth significantly less in today's streaming era. Underlying business (excluding the write-down) turned profitable this quarter with PBT of Rs 212.53 lakhs, which is a positive sign for shareholders.
