Sattrix Information Security has received a confirmed work order valued at Rs 47.54 lakh (Rs 47.5362454 lakh) from an undisclosed client for the supply of advanced cybersecurity products, software licensing, and allied support services.
Order in Financial Context
The newly disclosed order represents approximately 5.9% of the company's average quarterly revenue of Rs 8.05 Cr. When aggregated with previous disclosures, the total disclosed order book stands at Rs 77.90 Cr (sum of the 7 orders disclosed across the last 3 fiscal quarters shown in the table below). This backlog provides a coverage ratio of 9.68 quarters of average quarterly revenue, indicating a substantial pipeline relative to current run-rate execution capacity.
Company Order Track Record
Order inflow velocity has accelerated significantly in the most recent completed quarter. Q2FY27 saw a total inflow of Rs 64.90 crore across six orders, a sharp increase from the single order worth Rs 13.00 crore recorded in Q1FY27. The current order value is consistent with the smaller end of the company's typical per-order size, which has ranged from Rs 13.00 lakh to Rs 18.17 crore in recent filings.

Execution and Revenue Quality
Recent quarterly performance data highlights volatility in execution quality. The company reported a net loss of Rs 0.70 crore in Q4FY24, accompanied by a negative Operating Profit Margin (OPM) of -12.39%. In contrast, Q3FY24 demonstrated strong profitability with an OPM of 36.40% and a net profit of Rs 1.60 crore. This disparity suggests potential execution stress or timing mismatches in revenue recognition during specific quarters.

Revenue Growth: Order Wins Translating to Revenue
As Sattrix has sustained order wins, with inflows accelerating notably in Q2FY27, its annual revenue has grown from Rs 45.10 crore in FY25 to Rs 60.83 crore in FY26, representing a YoY growth of +34.9% based on the latest annual data. Net profit also saw a substantial jump of +106.7% year-over-year in the same period.
Working Capital and Execution Capacity
The balance sheet reflects a healthy liquidity position with a Current Ratio of 2.40x and Total Liabilities/Equity of 0.14x, suggesting ample capacity to fund working capital requirements for the existing backlog. However, operating cashflow remains a concern; the company reported negative operating cashflow of -Rs 7.50 crore in FY25, indicating that backlog conversion to cash was inefficient during that period despite positive accruals.
What to Watch
- Execution Rate: Monitor quarterly revenue run-rate against the Rs 77.90 Cr backlog to assess if the 9.68-quarter coverage is being consumed efficiently or if delays are accumulating.
- Margin Quality: Track OPM trajectory on new orders versus historical averages, particularly given the swing from -12.39% to 36.40% in consecutive quarters previously.
- Cash Conversion: Watch for improvements in operating cashflow, as negative flows in FY25 suggest receivables or working capital cycles may be stretched.
- Client Concentration: While specific client names are often anonymized in filings, monitor future disclosures for concentration risks among top awarding entities like the private sector bank mentioned in recent orders.
Key Observations
- Backlog signal: Book-to-bill of 9.68x. At this level, execution capacity becomes the binding constraint.
- Margin stress: Net loss of Rs 0.70 crore in Q4FY24; execution stress visible in quarterly data.
- Valuation check (as of 07 Oct 2026): P/E of 42.6x against ROCE of 16.69%. At the time of this article, valuation was pricing in execution improvement not yet fully visible in return ratios.
- Cash conversion: Operating cashflow of -Rs 7.50 crore in FY25; backlog is not converting to cash efficiently, and receivables or working capital cycle may be stretched.
