Windsor Machines' consolidated Q1 FY27 (quarter ended June 30, 2026) revenue rose 31.4% YoY to ₹148.87 Cr, but the company posted a consolidated net loss of ₹0.91 Cr (EPS ₹-0.10) against a ₹7.24 Cr profit in the immediately preceding Q4 FY26 and a ₹10.54 Cr loss in the year-ago quarter. On a reported basis the YoY loss narrowed by over 90%, but that comparison is misleading: the year-ago quarter absorbed a ₹11.62 Cr one-off worker-retrenchment charge (Vatva/Chhatral/Thane plant closures) that pushed it into a large reported loss even though its underlying pre-exceptional profit was a positive ₹1.08 Cr (adjusted). Stripping that one-off out, the company has actually swung from a small adjusted profit a year ago to an outright loss this quarter — the opposite of what the headline YoY improvement suggests. No exceptional items were recorded this quarter, so the swing is entirely operating- and financing-driven.
Q1 FY-2027 vs prior quarters
The margin bridge sits on two lines: finance costs more than tripled YoY to ₹3.50 Cr from ₹1.10 Cr (+219%), and unallocated corporate costs nearly doubled to ₹10.75 Cr from ₹5.36 Cr — together outweighing a genuine improvement at the segment level, where combined segment results actually rose to ₹12.46 Cr from ₹8.72 Cr YoY. Injection Moulding was the standout, with revenue nearly doubling to ₹75.72 Cr and segment profit up 57% to ₹9.13 Cr, while CNC & VMC Machinery's segment profit fell to ₹2.32 Cr from ₹6.75 Cr YoY even as its revenue grew — that segment now includes newly acquired Unitech Workholding Systems, consolidated only from February 10, 2026, so the YoY comparison there isn't like-for-like. Sequentially, the 19.4% revenue decline and the swing from Q4's profit are consistent with capital-goods seasonality (the March quarter is typically the year's strongest dispatch quarter), so the QoQ drop should be read with that caveat rather than as fresh deterioration.
The stock went into the print at ₹303.55, down 4.1% over the past month of trading.
Standalone tells the same story in Cr terms — revenue ₹146.21 Cr, net loss ₹1.08 Cr, EPS ₹-0.12 — so the basis choice doesn't change the read. No analyst or brokerage estimate for this print turned up in a web search, and our records hold no prior management guidance to test the quarter against, so both vs-street and vs-guidance are unknown here; management has no formal outlook on record. No press release commentary was available to cross-check management's own framing. The print coincides with two capital-structure/governance events: paid-up equity rose 14.9% to ₹20.35 Cr after the balance 75% tranche of warrants (allotted January 2025) converted into 1.32 Cr new equity shares during the quarter, diluting per-share metrics; and the CEO resigned with a successor appointed on July 15, 2026, just after quarter-end, which these numbers don't yet reflect.
W1
Finance costs (₹3.50 Cr this quarter, +219% YoY) — whether they stabilize as Rajkot plant consolidation and Unitech-linked capex/debt normalize.
W2
CNC & VMC segment profitability — result fell to ₹2.32 Cr from ₹6.75 Cr YoY despite revenue growth; watch if Unitech integration lifts margins in coming quarters.
W3
New CEO's direction and commentary (appointed July 15, 2026, replacing the resigning incumbent) — no concall or press release for this quarter is in our records yet.
