Despite the profit decline, SEPC demonstrated exceptional revenue momentum with total income rising 40% to ₹282 crore in Q1 FY27, compared to ₹202.28 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year. As reported by Business Standard, this substantial revenue growth indicates the company's ability to expand its business operations significantly during the quarter, driven by continued execution across its diversified order book. The strong top-line performance demonstrates the company's operational capabilities despite facing margin pressures on select international contracts.
The company's net profit swung to a loss of ₹11 crore from a net profit of ₹17 crore year-on-year, primarily due to margin compression on select international contracts. According to the latest financial data, EBITDA margins contracted to 9.2% from 14.9% in the previous year, particularly affecting Middle East operations. Management indicated that the margin compression represents an execution-phase impact on specific international projects, with cost optimization and pricing measures being implemented to improve project-level profitability in subsequent quarters.
The company's sales reached ₹2,738.02 million compared to ₹2,022.78 million a year ago, while revenue stood at ₹2,824.8 million versus ₹2,037.95 million in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year. SEPC reported basic loss per share from continuing operations of ₹0.06 compared to basic earnings per share of ₹0.11 a year ago, while diluted loss per share from continuing operations was ₹0.06 compared to diluted earnings per share of ₹0.11 a year ago. These financial metrics reflect the company's transition from profitability to losses during the quarter.
As of June 30, 2026, SEPC's total orders on hand stood at ₹10,670 crore, comprising a domestic order book of ₹5,270 crore and an international order book of ₹5,400 crore spanning Uzbekistan and Saudi Arabia. During the quarter, the company secured three significant orders from Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL) at its IISCO Burnpur Steel Plant: Sinter Plant BOP package worth ₹423.29 crore, Coke Oven BOP package worth ₹350.28 crore, and 4.2 MTPA Pellet Plant BOP package worth ₹952.19 crore.
