Redington Limited reported its highest-ever quarterly revenue and profit for Q1FY27, with consolidated net profit after tax (PAT) surging to ₹4.86 billion (₹486 crore), a 77% increase year-on-year when including the Arena investment. Consolidated revenue from operations reached ₹349.22 billion, up 34% from ₹269 billion in Q1FY26. The strong performance was driven by robust growth across both its Singapore, India & South Asia (SISA) and Rest of the World (ROW) segments, alongside improved operational efficiency that expanded the EBITDA margin to 2.03% from 1.54%. This broad-based growth underscores the company’s expanding market share and effective cost management across its global footprint.

What the Numbers Show
A key analytical observation is the disproportionate rise in consolidated net profit relative to revenue growth, driven by margin expansion and improved working capital management. The EBITDA margin expansion to 2.03% reflects improved operating leverage. The absence of exceptional items in Q1FY27, compared to a ₹152.31 crore charge in Q4FY26, and a decline in finance costs as a percentage of revenue likely contributed to this margin improvement. Additionally, the reduction in working capital days by five days year-on-year to 32 days indicates stronger cash flow dynamics, despite free cash flow remaining negative at ₹995 crore due to significant changes in working capital.
Operational Updates
The company continues to expand its global presence, having incorporated PT Redington Technology Indonesia and Redington (Thailand) Limited during the quarter. Post-quarter, it added Aladeem Al Ahmar for Computer and Mobile phone Trading and Services LLC in Iraq. ProConnect, the logistics arm, achieved all-time high quarterly revenues with a 38% YoY growth, maintaining an EBITDA margin of 9%. Management noted that while operations are adapting to geo-political situations in the Middle East, no material adverse effects on the financial position are foreseen. Ind AS 29 was applied for subsidiaries using Turkish Lira, with no significant impact on consolidated results.
