SEPC swings to ₹11 Cr consolidated loss in Q1 FY27 on one-off ₹24 Cr tax write-off

SEPC Ltd reported consolidated revenue of ₹273.80 Cr for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, up 35.4% YoY from ₹202.28 Cr but flat QoQ (-0.01%) against ₹273.83 Cr in Q4 FY26 (standalone revenue grew faster YoY, +50.4% to ₹118.85 Cr, reflecting a larger swing in the domestic book versus the overseas/JV-heavy consolidated entity). Operating profitability before tax stayed positive — consolidated PBT was ₹13.17 Cr, down 30.9% YoY from ₹19.05 Cr and 11.4% QoQ from ₹14.87 Cr — but the company swung to a consolidated net LOSS of ₹11.05 Cr (EPS -₹0.06) versus a profit of ₹16.55 Cr a year ago and ₹13.73 Cr last quarter. Standalone PAT was also a loss, ₹18.17 Cr, versus profits of ₹6.86 Cr YoY and ₹7.49 Cr QoQ. The loss is driven entirely by a ₹24.22 Cr deferred tax asset (DTA) write-off (Note 6) — management, as a matter of prudence, charged off DTA recognised on carried-forward business losses that is due to expire within this financial year, out of ₹190.24 Cr of DTA nearing expiry. The company explicitly frames this as a non-cash accounting adjustment with no impact on cash flow, liquidity or debt servicing, and says the underlying business loss remains available for future carry-forward. Even stripping this out, though, underlying profitability softened: NPM compressed to -3.91% from +8.12% YoY and +4.75% QoQ, and the pre-exceptional operating margin (PBT/revenue) fell to 4.81% from 9.42% YoY and 5.58% QoQ — cost of materials/execution expenses grew faster than revenue. This remains a qualified review: auditors flagged unresolved uncertainty on ₹91.63 Cr of the DTA balance and on recoverability of ₹90.38 Cr of overdue non-current contract assets and trade receivables tied to stalled projects — the same qualification carried from prior quarters. On the order side, the company secured a ₹854.57 Cr order from SAIL-ISP (announced August 6, 2026), and shareholders approved (August 5, 2026) the proposed ₹1,530 Cr acquisition of up to 90% of UAE-based Avenir International Engineers and Consultants via share swap, with lender and stock-exchange approvals still pending. Management gives no formal quarterly guidance on record, and no Q1-specific Street consensus for SEPC was found; a broader analyst thesis (Univest) had pencilled in 15-20% PAT growth for FY27, a bar this quarter's loss now sits well below. Going into Q2 FY27, the print sets up two things to track: whether the ₹13.17 Cr PBT run-rate holds given the YoY margin compression, and whether the Avenir approvals and the ₹90.38 Cr stalled-project recoveries progress — both of which management has cited as central to its going-concern basis alongside the completed Rights Issue and investor-backed working capital funding.
