Oriental Carbon and Chemicals Q4 25/26 earnings summary
Complete event summary combining all related documents: earnings call transcript, report, and slide presentation.Q4 25/26 earnings summary11 Aug, 2026
Executive summary
FY26 remained profitable through a prolonged insoluble sulphur downturn; cost discipline, uninterrupted supply and stronger sulphuric acid results supported resilience.
Market conditions improved after year-end, with stronger realizations and demand; Q1 FY27 revenue reached ₹219.67 crore, up 78.46% YoY.
Financial highlights
Revenue from operations was ₹505.90 crore, with reported growth of 23% YoY; FY25 covered only nine months after the demerger, limiting direct comparability.
EBITDA was ₹89.47 crore, with an 18% margin; PAT was ₹47.71 crore, reported up 67% despite higher raw-material costs.
Operating cash profit was ₹84.44 crore; operating cash flow was ₹11.02 crore as inventory and receivables absorbed working capital.
Outlook and guidance
FY27 priorities include higher capacity utilisation, additional global customer approvals, specialised grades, process efficiency and cost optimisation.
Higher sulphur prices were passed on to customers, partially restoring margins; improved FY27 margins are expected, subject to ongoing cost and supply pressures.
Growth is expected to be served substantially by existing capacity, limiting the need for large corresponding capital expenditure.
Q1 FY27 revenue was ₹219.67 crore, EBITDA ₹63 crore and PAT ₹40.25 crore, up 78.46%, 231.6% and 206.0% YoY, respectively.
