Route Mobile reported Q2FY26 revenue from operations of Rs. 1,119.42 crore, almost flat against Rs. 1,113.41 crore in the same quarter last year. However, the company swung to a net loss of Rs. 18.83 crore, compared to a profit of Rs. 107.03 crore in Q2FY25. Profit before tax collapsed from Rs. 137.34 crore to just Rs. 2.00 crore, indicating exceptional items significantly weighed on the bottom line. EBITDA (excluding exceptional items) was Rs. 135.95 crore with a 12.14% margin, while EPS turned negative at Rs. (3.37) for both basic and diluted. Management acknowledged near-term headwinds from shifting carrier dynamics and competitive pressures but expressed confidence in long-term growth.
The steep fall in profitability and swing to a loss despite stable revenue is a clearly negative signal for shareholders. The market is likely to react negatively given the sharp PAT decline and negative EPS, though revenue stability and a still-positive operating performance before exceptional items offer some reassurance.
