AI summary

West Coast Paper Mills reported mixed FY2026 results. Standalone revenue declined slightly to Rs 2,49,849 lakhs from Rs 2,51,135 lakhs, while consolidated revenue grew 5.3% to Rs 4,27,879 lakhs driven by subsidiary Andhra Paper. However, profitability declined sharply - standalone net profit fell 46% to Rs 15,353 lakhs and consolidated net profit dropped 53.6% to Rs 15,573 lakhs. EPS on consolidated basis fell from Rs 47.11 to Rs 22.80. The company declared dividend of Rs 3 per share (150%) versus Rs 5 per share (250%) in previous year. A significant concern is a lockout at Andhra Paper's Kadiyam plant since May 1, 2026 due to an illegal strike by contract workmen. Statutory auditors Singhi & Co. issued an unmodified opinion on both standalone and consolidated results.

Likely market impact

Sharp profit decline despite revenue growth indicates margin compression. The lockout at Andhra Paper subsidiary poses operational risk. Lower dividend payout may disappoint shareholders. Clean audit opinion provides assurance on financial reporting quality.
