Globus Spirits' consolidated revenue rose to ₹1,098.93 Cr, up 26.1% YoY from ₹871.78 Cr but down 4.6% QoQ from ₹1,151.88 Cr (seasonally the strongest quarter). Consolidated PAT, which is primary here as standalone and consolidated track closely, fell to ₹14.02 Cr — down 35.7% YoY from ₹21.81 Cr and down 47.1% QoQ from ₹26.48 Cr. Basic EPS was ₹4.64 against ₹7.58 a year ago and ₹9.14 last quarter; net margin compressed to roughly 1.3% of revenue from 2.5% YoY and 2.3% QoQ. Standalone PAT was ₹14.92 Cr (EPS ₹4.89), the secondary read, diverging from consolidated only by the ₹0.55 Cr JV loss bridge — not a material basis divergence.
Q2 FY-2027 vs prior quarters
No year-ago quarter on record — YoY cells may be blank.
The squeeze sits mainly on employee costs: employee benefits expense more than doubled YoY to ₹67.11 Cr from ₹25.96 Cr (+158.5%) and rose 23.3% sequentially from ₹54.44 Cr, the single largest driver of the margin compression this quarter. Other expenses were up 35.4% YoY to ₹152.36 Cr. Finance costs (+20.9% YoY to ₹16.57 Cr) and depreciation (+21.4% YoY to ₹26.97 Cr) also outran revenue growth, both consistent with the new Uttar Pradesh facility ramp-up the company has flagged as capex-heavy. At the segment level, Consumer (R&O) EBITDA margin was 12.35% (₹37.97 Cr EBITDA on ₹307.47 Cr net revenue) — below management's reaffirmed 15-17% guided corridor, and down from 14.13% YoY and 13.39% QoQ, so the "normalizing due to UP mix" management flagged last quarter is running softer than even its own normalized range. Manufacturing segment EBITDA margin (on net revenue) eased to 5.58% from 6.51% YoY; management's own guidance for this segment is framed in ₹/litre (₹5-7/litre, reaffirmed per recent analyst meetings) which isn't independently verifiable from this filing since no litre-volume data is disclosed here.
The stock went into the print at ₹679.4, down 15.6% over the past month of trading.
Manufacturing EBITDA margin INR 5-7/litre for FY27 (guidance reaffirmed). R&O EBITDA margins 15-17%, normalizing from 17-18% due to UP mix. No major capex planned post-UP commissioning; P&A self-funded from cash generation.
— This quarter: missed
Headline revenue growth also overstates the underlying trend: excise duty on sales, a pass-through, jumped 59.9% YoY to ₹336.49 Cr, while net segment revenue (ex-excise) grew a more moderate 15.3% YoY to ₹762.43 Cr. No consensus estimates specific to this quarter turned up in available coverage — results were announced today and pre-result previews found only qualitative commentary (watch input costs/distribution expenses, festive-season demand), not numeric estimates — so the print's standing versus Street is unknown. No fresh management press release was available to extract for this result; the only documented framing is from the prior concall (manufacturing and R&O margin guidance above), against which this quarter's R&O margin reads as a miss.

Whether Consumer/R&O EBITDA margin recovers toward the guided 15-17% range from this quarter's 12.35%
W2
Employee cost trajectory — whether the +158.5% YoY / +23.3% QoQ surge to ₹67.11 Cr normalizes or persists

Manufacturing margin vs the reaffirmed ₹5-7/litre FY27 guidance, not verifiable this quarter without litre-volume disclosure
Consolidated PBT nets a ₹0.55 Cr share-of-JV-loss (Globus ANSA) against standalone; consol PAT of ₹14.02 Cr splits to ₹14.18 Cr for holding-co shareholders and -₹0.16 Cr NCI. No exceptional items in the P&L; the only one-off-adjacent item is a legacy FY23 I-T search-and-seizure matter (₹40.94 Cr aggregate demand) under appeal, unprovided. QIP added 2,380,952 shares in Aug-2026, diluting EPS more than PAT fell.
