Himalaya Food International Limited returned to profitability in its first quarter of FY27, reporting a net profit of ₹104 lakh for the period ended June 30, 2026. This stands in contrast to the net loss of ₹239 lakh recorded in the immediately preceding quarter (Q4FY26), signaling a reversal in earnings momentum.
The company’s total income from operations rose to ₹879 lakh, compared to ₹844 lakh in the previous quarter. On a year-over-year basis, however, operating income declined to ₹879 lakh from ₹1,039 lakh in Q1FY26, where the firm had reported a net profit of ₹259 lakh.
Financial Performance
The unaudited standalone financial results were reviewed by the Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors on August 14, 2026. The key metrics for the quarter are detailed below:
| Metric: | Q1FY27 | Q4FY26 | Q1FY26 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total Income: | ₹879 lakh | ₹844 lakh | ₹1,039 lakh |
| Net Profit (Pre-tax): | ₹104 lakh | -₹316 lakh | ₹259 lakh |
| Net Profit (Post-tax): | ₹104 lakh | -₹239 lakh | ₹259 lakh |
| EPS (Basic/Diluted): | ₹0.12 | -₹0.28 | ₹0.45 |
Earnings per share (EPS) stood at ₹0.12 for both basic and diluted calculations, improving from a loss of ₹0.28 per share in the prior quarter.
What the Numbers Show
The return to profitability was driven by an improvement in pre-tax margins rather than top-line growth. While revenue increased sequentially by approximately 4%, it remained significantly lower than the same period last year. The absence of exceptional items in the current quarter suggests the profit figure reflects core operational performance, contrasting with the significant losses incurred in the final quarter of FY26.
Corporate Details
The company’s paid-up equity share capital remains unchanged at ₹8,479 lakh. The full format of the unaudited financial results is available on the BSE website and the company’s official portal.
