According to Moneycontrol, the stock's movement aligns with a 'Very Bullish' sentiment for the company. The shares had fell 4% to the day's low of ₹13,580 on BSE despite reporting strong Q1 FY27 results that showed significant profit growth. The decline reflected broader market sentiment and investor concerns about mixed underlying business metrics, though the recent recovery suggests renewed investor confidence. The stock has shown strong momentum over longer periods, rising 12% in the last month and 25% in the last three months, though it remains 215% higher over the last three years and 227% higher over the last five years. The stock touched a 52-week high of ₹18,471 on September 25, 2025, and a 52-week low of ₹9,600 on March 30, 2026.
Dixon Technologies delivered exceptional Q1 FY27 results with profit after tax surging 156% year-on-year to ₹718 crore compared to ₹225 crore in the same quarter last year, significantly outperforming analyst expectations. According to The Economic Times, the company reported revenue from operations (including other income) at ₹16,076 crore, representing a 25% YoY increase from the previous year. The company's EBITDA jumped 105% YoY to ₹991 crore, while profit before tax rose 137% YoY to ₹869 crore. The profitability was significantly boosted by other income surging to ₹528.29 crore from just ₹1.68 crore in the base quarter. As per The Economic Times, the company's profit margins expanded 2.4% to 4.6% in the period under review, from 2.2% in the same period last year. Revenue from core operations advanced 21.1% YoY to ₹15,548 crore in the June quarter, compared to ₹12,835.66 crore in the same quarter last year, surpassing the CNBC TV18 poll expectation of ₹14,769 crore. The company reported net profit for the year at ₹498 crore compared to ₹15.93 crore a year ago, with employee benefits expenses recorded at ₹51.44 crore and total tax expenses at ₹86.17 crore.
Despite strong revenue growth, EBITDA margin contracted sharply to 3% from 3.8% in the year-ago quarter, with analysts expecting a margin of 3.4%. According to The Economic Times, the margin compression indicates potential operational challenges or competitive pressures affecting the company's profitability despite strong revenue performance. EBITDA margin also declined sequentially from 3.89% in the March quarter, with revenue jumping nearly 48% quarter-on-quarter but EBITDA increasing only 13.4%. As per The Economic Times, the company's EBITDA margins contracted 78 basis points to 2.97% in the first quarter of FY27, compared year-on-year with 3.75% in the same period a year earlier, primarily due to the surge in raw material costs. According to Moneycontrol, EBITDA margin at 3% was slightly below its expectation of around 3.3%, highlighting the company's margin pressure despite strong top-line growth. Speaking to CNBC-TV18, management said margin pressure during the quarter stemmed from the transition away from the earlier PLI scheme, persistent commodity inflation and elevated crude oil prices. The company expects operating margins to remain in the 3-3.1% range in the near term, with gradual improvement driven by higher localisation, backward integration, a larger share of ODM business in lighting and the rollout of MPMS.
Despite near-term margin pressures, most brokerages retained positive views citing multiple growth catalysts including the Vivo joint venture expected to contribute meaningfully from Q3, with the business expected to generate ₹35,000-40,000 crore in revenue next fiscal year. According to CNBC TV18, management expects mobile phone volumes to grow 20-25% sequentially in the September quarter while maintaining its full-year shipment guidance. The company reiterated that export volumes could rise sharply once the new mobile manufacturing incentive scheme is notified, with 15-20 million smartphone exports targeted over the next year. While the broader smartphone market is expected to contract around 10% this year due to higher memory prices and rising handset costs, Dixon said it continues to gain market share from competitors. Export potential of 15-20 million smartphones over the next two years translates into a revenue opportunity of ₹18,000-20,000 crore, with management indicating that two anchor customers are evaluating India as a manufacturing hub. Multiple brokerages maintained positive ratings: Nomura maintained 'Buy' with target price of ₹17,086, JPMorgan reiterated 'Overweight' with ₹16,400 target, Macquarie retained 'Outperform' with ₹16,000 target, and Investec maintained 'Buy' with ₹16,500 target. However, some remained cautious: CLSA retained 'Underperform' with ₹10,600 target, Goldman Sachs reiterated 'Sell' with ₹10,980 target, and Kotak downgraded to 'Add' from 'Buy' with ₹15,300 target.
