The Board of Directors of Spel Semiconductor approved unaudited financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, reporting a net loss of ₹134.06 lakh. This compares to a net loss of ₹558.78 lakh in the corresponding quarter of the previous year.
Factory operations remain suspended, with revenue primarily representing residual export and other sales. Consequently, income for the period is not comparable with normal operating periods. The Board also fixed the date for the 41st Annual General Meeting (AGM) on September 14, 2026.
Financial Performance
Revenue from operations fell sharply to ₹7.99 lakh in Q4FY26, down from ₹193.39 lakh in Q4FY25. Total income stood at ₹48.28 lakh, driven largely by other income of ₹40.28 lakh. Total expenses were ₹182.34 lakh, including finance costs of ₹61.57 lakh and employee benefit expenses of ₹29.23 lakh.
| Metric | Q4FY26 (₹ lakh) | Q4FY25 (₹ lakh) |
|---|---|---|
| Revenue from Operations | 7.99 | 193.39 |
| Other Income | 40.28 | 42.23 |
| Total Expenses | 182.34 | 478.12 |
| Net Loss | (134.06) | (558.78) |
Earnings per share (basic and diluted) were negative at ₹0.29, compared to a loss of ₹1.21 in the prior year quarter. For the full year ended March 31, 2026, the company reported a net loss of ₹2,384.11 lakh against revenue of ₹628 lakh.
What the Numbers Show
Other income accounted for approximately 83% of total income in the quarter, highlighting the negligible contribution from core operations due to suspended factory activities. While the absolute loss narrowed significantly compared to the previous year, this reduction is largely attributable to lower total expenses rather than operational recovery, as revenue from operations dropped by over 95%.
Auditor’s Qualified Conclusion
Statutory auditors Venkatesh & Co issued a qualified conclusion on the interim financial results. They highlighted material uncertainties regarding the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Key factors include:
- Incurred losses and negative cash flows during the period and earlier years.
- Resignation of major employees, leading to significant reduction in staff strength.
- Breakdown of major plant and machinery, resulting in suspended production activities.
- Unconfirmed trade receivables of ₹3.91 lakh and payables of ₹339.68 lakh pending reconciliation.

The Board scheduled the 41st AGM for September 14, 2026, to be held via Video Conferencing or Other Audio Visual Means. The register of members and share transfer books will remain closed from September 7 to September 14, 2026. Remote e-voting will be available from September 11 to September 13, 2026. The cut-off date for determining voting rights is September 7, 2026.
