MTAR Technologie Q1 FY27 Results (NSE: MTARTECH)
Signal: Margin expansion
The read
Q1FY27 marks a dramatic revenue surge (+130.4% YoY to ₹360.72 Cr) and operating leverage-driven margin expansion (EBITDA margin up ~733bps YoY) from a low base (Q1FY25 was weak). PAT more than quadrupled, though finance costs jumped 172.5% YoY, a caution on working capital intensity. Standalone profits modestly exceed consolidated due to subsidiary losses — merger of wholly owned subsidiaries (Gee Pee Aerospace & Defence, Magnatar Aero) into parent is in process, which should simplify structure.
| Metric | Value | YoY | QoQ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | ₹36.07 Cr | 130.4% | 17.9% |
| EBIT | ₹5.02 Cr | 364.5% | |
| Net profit | ₹5.02 Cr | 364.5% | |
| EPS | ₹16.33 | 363.9% | |
| EBIT margin | 17.1% |
P&L walk
Revenue more than doubled YoY (₹360.72 Cr vs ₹156.58 Cr) driven by a surge in sale of products (+130.5% YoY); EBITDA margin (derived) expanded 733bps YoY to ~17.1% as cost of materials grew 120% YoY (slower than revenue), employee costs +35.5% YoY (well below revenue growth), and other expenses +47.1% YoY — operating leverage and pricing power evident. Finance cost jumped 172.5% YoY to ₹15.85 Cr (from ₹5.82 Cr), partly offsetting gains. PAT at ₹50.23 Cr, +364.5% YoY, with effective tax rate ~25.5% vs 27.0% a year ago — lower tax also helped.
