Spandana Sphoorty Financial - PP reported a net profit after tax (PAT) of ₹12 Cr for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, marking a significant improvement from the ₹5 Cr recorded in Q4FY26. The microfinance lender’s assets under management (AUM) expanded by 11% quarter-on-quarter to reach ₹4,887 Cr, supported by robust disbursement activity and improving asset quality metrics.

The company disclosed these unaudited financial results on July 23, 2026, in compliance with Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The filing was submitted to both the Bombay Stock Exchange and the National Stock Exchange of India Limited.

Operational Highlights

Disbursement momentum remained strong during the quarter, with the company disbursing ₹1,371 Cr. This compares to ₹1,539 Cr in Q4FY26 and ₹280 Cr in the same quarter of the previous fiscal year. Approximately 61% of these loans were extended to new customers, indicating continued market penetration. Venkatesh Krishnan, Managing Director and CEO, attributed the growth trajectory to efforts in strengthening sourcing and improving portfolio quality.

Asset quality indicators showed notable improvement. The consolidated gross non-performing assets (GNPA) ratio declined by 15 basis points quarter-on-quarter to 3.64%, down from 3.78% at the end of March 2026. Similarly, the standalone GNPA ratio improved to 2.91% from 3.33%. The provision coverage ratio was maintained at approximately 81%. Collection efficiency also strengthened, with gross collection efficiency rising to 96.6% from 95.3% in the previous quarter, and net collection efficiency improving to 95.9% from 94.7%.

Financial Performance

Total income for Q1FY27 stood at ₹303 Cr, representing a 9% quarter-on-quarter increase. Net interest income surged by 39% QoQ to ₹135 Cr, driven by an improvement in yield to 24.6%, up 182 basis points from 22.81% in Q4FY26. Meanwhile, the marginal cost of borrowing decreased to 11.3% from 12.0% in the prior quarter. Pre-provision operating profit (PPOP) remained stable at ₹40 Cr, compared to ₹39 Cr in Q4FY26.

The company borrowed ₹1,597 Cr during the quarter, an increase from ₹1,272 Cr in Q4FY26. Liquidity position remained healthy with ₹1,316 Cr available at the end of June 2026. The capital adequacy ratio (CRAR) stood at 33.8%, down from 35.9% at the end of March 2026, while net worth was reported at ₹2,140 Cr.

What the Numbers Show

The divergence between the 39% surge in net interest income and the modest 1% rise in PPOP suggests that operating expenses may have absorbed a significant portion of the revenue growth. However, the substantial improvement in yield (182 bps) combined with a reduction in borrowing costs (70 bps) indicates effective pricing power and funding cost management. The recovery of ₹51 Cr from the 90+ days past due bucket during the quarter further underscores the effectiveness of the company’s collection strategies in stabilizing asset quality.

Management outlined plans to evaluate growth in markets with low share, revive underperforming branches through a dedicated task force, roll out a new loan origination system platform, and launch an individual loan offering in the coming quarters.

Spandana Sphoorty Financial Limited will participate in the Goldman Sachs 2026 Asia Financials Virtual Corporate Day on June 17, 2026. The management is scheduled to attend a virtual group meeting starting at 11:00 am. The disclosure was made under Regulation 30 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.
