The disclosure, made via letter dated August 13, 2026, follows the earlier upload of the audio recording on August 06, 2026, ensuring stakeholders have access to both management’s commentary and detailed financial metrics for Q1FY27.

The disclosure was made in compliance with Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. Pearl Global Industries informed the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) regarding the submission of the transcript. This communication was signed by Shilpa Saraf, Company Secretary and Compliance Officer.

Financial Highlights

The company reported its highest-ever consolidated revenue, EBITDA, and profit after tax for a quarter. Consolidated revenue grew to ₹1,528 crore, up 24.5% year-on-year, driven by strong volume growth across manufacturing locations. Adjusted EBITDA, excluding ESOP expenses, stood at ₹164 crore, up 44.1% compared to Q1FY26, with a margin of 10.7% (up 140 bps YoY). Profit after tax reached ₹99 crore, marking a 51.4% year-on-year growth.

Figures for Q1FY26 derived from disclosed percentage changes.

Standalone total revenue stood at ₹340 crore, growing 27.4% year-on-year. However, standalone adjusted EBITDA margin dipped to 6.6% from 7.3% in Q1FY26 due to higher wage costs in Haryana following state government revisions. The company shipped 20.8 million pieces in Q1FY27, the highest ever in the Q1 series.

Strategic Developments and Capacity Expansion

Management highlighted the positive impact of the India-UK Free Trade Agreement (FTA), effective July 15, 2026, and the anticipated EU FTA by early 2027. These agreements are expected to boost raw material investments and sourcing advantages. The company is enhancing factory readiness in India and strengthening compliance standards for European and UK markets.

Capacity expansion remains a key focus. Ongoing projects in Bangladesh, including sustainable laundry operations starting in September, are expected to add 6 to 7 million pieces of capacity, bringing the group’s total installed capacity to approximately 108 million pieces. In India, construction of the second manufacturing shed in Bihar has commenced, with completion expected in the coming months. The company outlined a capex commitment of approximately ₹200 to ₹250 crore for FY27 across geographies.

What the Numbers Show

The divergence between consolidated and standalone margins highlights the strategic importance of Pearl Global’s overseas operations. While standalone margins contracted due to localized wage hikes in Haryana, consolidated margins expanded significantly, driven by operational leverage and higher-value product mix in international markets like Bangladesh and Vietnam. This underscores the group’s ability to offset domestic cost pressures through global diversification and efficient capacity utilization abroad.
