The company reported a 2% year-on-year increase in sales turnover, which reached INR103 crores compared to INR101 crores in the previous year. Despite the revenue growth, profitability faced headwinds, with EBITDA declining to INR18.38 crores, resulting in an EBITDA margin of 17.36% compared to 24% in the prior year.
The earnings call, held on June 10, 2026, highlighted that the company achieved a profit before tax of INR14 crores.

Operational Highlights and Outlook
Sealmatic secured orders for approximately 916 critical API mechanical seals for projects in the Middle East, including UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait, and Iraq. Of these, 686 seals have been supplied, while 230 are under execution. The company noted that geopolitical instability has delayed project commissioning by about seven months. However, management views the installed base as a driver for future recurring revenue, with gross margins on replacement parts expected to be around 80%.
Looking ahead to FY27, the company guided for 15% revenue growth and expects EBITDA margins to improve to 23%–24%. This improvement is anticipated due to reduced expenditure on exhibitions and a tapering of subsidized API seal supplies. The company remains focused on expanding its footprint in the oil and gas sector, defense, and power industries.
