Varroc Engineering reported audited standalone FY2025-26 revenue of Rs 81,455.32 million, up ~10.5% YoY from Rs 73,685.82 million. Net profit grew 4.5% to Rs 2,881.93 million (EPS Rs 18.86) vs Rs 2,758.50 million (EPS Rs 18.05) in the prior year. The auditors issued a Qualified Opinion due to an ongoing arbitration with TYC Brother Industrial Co. and Beste Motor Co. regarding Rs 209.89 million in revenue recognized under a Transition Management Agreement. The Company has filed a defence and believes it has a strong case. Additionally, the auditors included an Emphasis of Matter regarding a separate ICC arbitration initiated by OPmobility Lighting Holding (France) claiming US$ 66.41 million for alleged breaches of a Securities Purchase Agreement. The board recommended a final dividend of Rs 1.50 per share (150%) and seeks approval to raise up to Rs 500 crore via NCDs and increase total borrowing limits to Rs 3,000 crore.
The Qualified Opinion raises audit risk and potential balance sheet adjustment if the TYC arbitration goes against the Company. The current ratio of 0.79 and proposed higher borrowing limits signal tight liquidity management. Dividend is positive for shareholder returns but the ongoing legal disputes are a risk overhang.
