Skipper Limited management will participate in the Nuvama Emerging India CEO Forum, an investor conference scheduled for Monday, September 28, 2026. The event will be conducted in physical mode.

The company filed an intimation with the National Stock Exchange of India Limited and BSE Limited on September 24, 2026. This disclosure is made pursuant to the provisions of Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.

Disclosure specifics

The company clarified that this communication does not constitute an intimation of an Investor or Analyst meet under Regulation 30 read with Para A of Part A of Schedule III of the SEBI LODR Regulations, 2015. Instead, it is to be considered a general update by the company.

The filing was signed digitally by Anu Singh, Company Secretary and Compliance Officer, at 3:31 pm on September 24, 2026.

Skipper has secured a confirmed work order valued at Rs 797.0 crore. The contract involves the supply of transmission towers and monopoles for Power T&D projects in Australia and a domestic 765 Kv transmission line project. The filing was disclosed to the exchange on September 23, 2026.

ORDER IN FINANCIAL CONTEXT

The Rs 797.0 crore order represents approximately 57% of the company's average quarterly revenue of Rs 1406.53 crore. When combined with previous wins, the Total Disclosed Order Book stands at Rs 6365.00 crore (sum of the 5 orders disclosed across the last 3 fiscal quarters shown in the table below). This backlog provides coverage of 4.53 quarters of average quarterly revenue, indicating a strong pipeline relative to current run rates. The book-to-bill ratio, calculated as total disclosed order book divided by TTM revenue of Rs 5626.1 crore, suggests a healthy inflow trajectory that supports future revenue visibility.

COMPANY ORDER TRACK RECORD

Order inflow velocity has been significant, with Rs 1305.00 crore secured in Q2FY27 and Rs 5060.00 crore in Q1FY27. The current order value of Rs 797.0 crore is consistent with the company's recent per-order size, which has ranged between Rs 797.0 crore and Rs 1305.0 crore, reflecting a shift toward mega-projects.

EXECUTION AND REVENUE QUALITY

Revenue generation has remained stable despite fluctuations in net profit margins. In Q1FY27, revenue stood at Rs 1314.60 crore with an OPM of 10.70%, up slightly from 10.40% in Q4FY26. Net profit in Q1FY27 was Rs 56.80 crore, lower than Q4FY26's Rs 78.10 crore but higher than Q3FY26's Rs 52.80 crore. The consistent OPM above 10% indicates stable margin quality, though execution efficiency should be monitored as new large orders are integrated into the production cycle.

REVENUE GROWTH - ORDER WINS TRANSLATING TO REVENUE

As Skipper has sustained accelerated order wins, with a massive Rs 5060.00 crore inflow in Q1FY27 and Rs 1305.00 crore in Q2FY27, its annual revenue has grown from Rs 1711.10 crore in FY22 to Rs 5563.40 crore in FY26, representing a YoY growth of +19.8% based on the latest annual data. This historical trend demonstrates that past order inflows have successfully translated into top-line expansion, validating the company's execution capability on large-scale infrastructure contracts.

WORKING CAPITAL AND EXECUTION CAPACITY

The company maintains a current ratio of 1.30x, providing adequate short-term liquidity to manage working capital requirements for ongoing projects. However, the Total Liabilities/Equity stands at 2.04x, indicating elevated leverage that includes trade payables and other non-debt liabilities. Operating cashflow in FY26 was Rs 277.40 crore, but free cashflow remained negative at -Rs 89.00 crore due to high capex of -Rs 366.40 crore. This suggests that while operations generate cash, heavy investment in fixed assets is consuming liquidity, requiring careful monitoring of funding sources for the expanding backlog.

WHAT TO WATCH

• Execution rate: Monitor quarterly revenue run-rate against the Rs 6365.00 crore backlog to assess conversion speed.
• OPM trajectory: Track whether margins on Australia, North America, and domestic 765 Kv projects hold above the historical 10% average.
• Client concentration: Assess if the "reputed domestic developer" and international clients represent a diversified base or concentrated risk.
• Cashflow management: Watch for improvement in free cashflow as capex intensity potentially moderates post-investment phase.

KEY OBSERVATIONS

• Backlog signal: Book-to-bill of 1.13x (order book/TTM revenue) with 4.53 quarters coverage. At this level, execution capacity becomes the binding constraint.
• Leverage flag: Total Liabilities/Equity of 2.04x; balance sheet carries elevated liabilities, and ability to fund working capital for the existing backlog should be monitored.
• Cash conversion: Free cashflow of -Rs 89.00 crore in FY26; backlog is not converting to positive free cash efficiently due to high capex, and working capital cycle may be stretched.
