Lehar Footwears Q1 FY27 Results (BSE: 532829)
Signal: Revenue declined
The read
The key inflection is sequential rather than YoY: Q1FY27 revenue fell 47.3% YoY and PAT fell 58.6%, but EBITDA margin was still 9.4%; the trajectory now depends on whether the ₹39.70 crore OEM order for 18 lakh pairs converts into volume recovery rather than a one-quarter margin defence.
