Consolidated revenue fell to ₹1686.91 Cr with net profit at ₹170.72 Cr. While nine-month standalone profit rose, consolidated profit declined. The company declared a ₹1 per share interim dividend, but provided no future outlook.

📉 The Financial Deep Dive

Premco Global Limited has announced its un-audited financial results for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2025, revealing a significant downturn in its third-quarter performance.

The Numbers:

  • Standalone Performance (Q3 FY26): Revenue from operations plummeted by approximately 41.8% year-on-year (YoY) to ₹949.35 Cr from ₹1633.27 Cr in Q3 FY25. Net profit after tax (PAT) saw a drastic fall of around 97.0% YoY to ₹43.52 Cr, down from ₹1455.98 Cr. Standalone basic and diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS) consequently dropped to ₹1.31 from ₹44.10 in the prior year period.
  • Consolidated Performance (Q3 FY26): On a consolidated basis, revenue from operations declined by approximately 39.6% YoY to ₹1686.91 Cr from ₹2794.89 Cr. Net profit after tax decreased substantially by around 81.0% YoY to ₹170.72 Cr, compared to ₹901.22 Cr in Q3 FY25. Consolidated basic/diluted EPS was ₹5.16, a slight dip from ₹5.19 (basic) and ₹5.87 (diluted) in the prior year quarter.

Nine-Month Performance (9M FY26):

  • Standalone: Revenue for the nine months stood at ₹4289.90 Cr (down 11.6% YoY from ₹4853.36 Cr). However, net profit after tax showed resilience, increasing by 19.5% YoY to ₹1457.42 Cr from ₹1219.16 Cr. EPS rose to ₹44.10 from ₹36.89 YoY.
  • Consolidated: Revenue for the nine months was ₹7226.59 Cr (down 10.9% YoY from ₹8113.44 Cr), while net profit after tax declined by 8.8% YoY to ₹703.45 Cr from ₹771.11 Cr. Consolidated EPS increased marginally to ₹21.29 from ₹20.32 YoY.

Financial Highlights and Notes:
The company declared a second interim dividend of ₹1/- per share (10%) for FY2025-26. Exceptional items included small payments related to facility relocations: ₹10.31 Lakhs for the Pithampur facility (standalone) and ₹53.67 Lakhs for the Vapi facility (consolidated).
The implementation of new Labour Codes by the Government of India was noted, with the company assessing no material financial implications at this stage.

🚩 Risks & Outlook
The most significant concern arising from this announcement is the absence of any forward-looking guidance from the management. The sharp YoY decline in Q3 profitability, particularly on a standalone basis, raises questions about demand, cost pressures, or operational challenges during the quarter. While the nine-month standalone profit growth is a positive, the decline in consolidated profit and the significant Q3 slump warrant close investor scrutiny. The impact of the new Labour Codes, though deemed immaterial currently, will need ongoing monitoring.

Investors will be watching for management commentary in subsequent investor calls to understand the drivers behind the Q3 performance and the outlook for the remainder of FY26.
