EMPIRE INDUSTRIES LTD. Q1 FY27 Results

Empire Industries' standalone revenue from operations rose 10.1% YoY to ₹183.60 Cr in Q1 FY27 (from ₹166.80 Cr), and standalone PAT rose 47.3% YoY to ₹14.17 Cr (from ₹9.62 Cr) — profit growth well ahead of revenue growth. There were no exceptional items in either period, so the YoY PAT growth is entirely underlying; EPS rose to ₹23.62 (not annualised) from ₹16.04 a year ago. Sequentially, both lines were softer: revenue fell 6.0% and PAT fell 25.2% versus Q4 FY26 (₹195.37 Cr revenue, ₹18.95 Cr PAT), the stronger of the two comparison quarters.

The margin expansion was not company-wide — it came from two segments swinging from loss to profit. Trading & Indenting posted a ₹2.04 Cr segment profit versus a ₹1.99 Cr loss a year ago, on roughly flat revenue (₹73.91 Cr vs ₹74.43 Cr, -0.7%). Property Development swung to a ₹0.65 Cr profit from a ₹1.93 Cr loss, as revenue more than doubled to ₹8.77 Cr from ₹4.33 Cr. Manufacturing moved the other way: revenue grew 15.2% YoY to ₹75.14 Cr but segment profit fell 53.1% to ₹1.96 Cr from ₹4.19 Cr, as cost of materials consumed rose 5.3% and other expenses rose 9.3% YoY, pulling manufacturing segment margin to 2.6% from 6.4%. The 'Others' segment remained the largest profit contributor (₹11.13 Cr, essentially flat vs ₹11.37 Cr YoY) — the stable base beneath these swings. Total segment result rose 35.8% YoY to ₹15.79 Cr but fell 43.9% QoQ from ₹28.14 Cr, reflecting a seasonally stronger 'Others' showing in Q4 (₹14.07 Cr). Net, standalone NPM improved to about 7.7% from about 5.8% YoY.

The stock went into the print at ₹1,149, up 12.6% over the past month of trading.

For context: this is the second-highest quarterly PAT of the last 6 quarters.

Tax outgo ₹3.00 Cr (17.5% effective rate) vs ₹0.68 Cr (6.6%) a year ago — no exceptional items in either period

Empire Industries carries no analyst consensus or brokerage preview on record, and a web search for Q1 FY27 estimates found no coverage, so vsStreet is unknown rather than assumed. Management has issued no formal guidance or prior concall commentary in our records, so the print cannot be checked against a stated outlook — it is judged on YoY numbers alone. The Board approved these unaudited results on 14 August 2026 alongside a routine reconstitution of board committees following a director's term completion in September 2026, neither of which bears on the quarter's numbers; the statutory auditor issued an unqualified limited-review opinion. No separate management press release beyond this regulatory filing was available to cross-check messaging against the reported figures.
