Synergy Green Industries reported a standalone net loss of ₹10.1 crore for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 (Q1FY27), compared to a net profit of ₹3.4 crore in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year. Total income declined 11.3% year-on-year to ₹75.7 crore, down from ₹85.4 crore in Q1FY26. The Board of Directors approved the unaudited financial results on August 13, 2026.

The revenue contraction was attributed to delayed material lifting, prototype approvals, and West Asia conflict-related logistics disruptions that affected dispatches and export deliveries. Despite the topline decline, profitability pressures intensified, with Profit Before Depreciation, Interest and Tax (PBDIT) falling 59.7% to ₹5.3 crore from ₹13.2 crore. PBDIT margin moderated by 841 basis points to 7.0%, down from 15.4% in Q1FY26.

Financial Performance

Margin erosion was primarily driven by raw material inflation (200 bps impact), consumable cost inflation (300 bps), and higher electricity costs due to policy changes, manpower increases, and other factors (~300 bps). Cost of materials consumed rose 18.5% to ₹41.6 crore, while finance costs increased 54.4% to ₹7.2 crore. Depreciation and amortization expenses more than doubled to ₹8.8 crore from ₹3.4 crore.

Other income declined significantly to ₹5.6 lakh from ₹18.2 lakh. Employee benefit expenses rose 33% to ₹10.3 crore.

What the Numbers Show

A critical divergence exists between inventory levels and material consumption. While the cost of materials consumed rose 18.5% to ₹41.6 crore, changes in inventories showed a credit of ₹22.6 crore. This indicates a substantial drawdown of finished goods or work-in-progress stock during the quarter. This inventory reduction partially offset high input costs but was insufficient to prevent the bottom-line loss, suggesting production volumes may have exceeded immediate sales realization or the company is clearing older stock.

Outlook & Mitigation Measures

Management indicated that a significant portion of raw material impact and part of consumable cost inflation is being recovered through customer price revisions effective from Q2FY27. The impact of higher electricity costs is expected to be mitigated through an additional 5 MW wind Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) under open access, coupled with higher production volumes.

Despite Q1 margin moderation, PBDIT margin is expected to improve by more than 300 basis points during FY27. This projection is supported by higher business volumes, increased export contribution (expected to remain stable at 25–30%), and growing contribution from in-house machining operations. The order book has grown approximately 33%, supported by robust customer schedules and new product additions.

Consolidated Results & Corporate Actions

Consolidated results mirrored standalone figures, with a net loss of ₹10.1 crore on revenue of ₹75.1 crore. The group includes Synergy Green Industries Limited ESOP Trust as a controlled entity. Paid-up equity share capital stands at ₹15.5 crore, net of treasury shares held by the ESOP Trust. As of March 31, 2026, the trust had acquired 8,000 equity shares from the open market.

Statutory auditors P G Bhagwat LLP issued a limited review report with an unmodified opinion on both standalone and consolidated financial results.

Synergy Green Industries reported a stark reversal in its financial performance for the first quarter, posting a standalone net loss of ₹101 million. This marks a significant deviation from the net profit of ₹34 million recorded in the same period last year, indicating a complete erosion of bottom-line profitability.

The company’s revenue also faced headwinds, declining 10% year-on-year to ₹751 million from ₹836 million in the prior year’s quarter. While the top-line contraction was moderate, the impact on operating margins was severe. EBITDA plummeted 58% to ₹47 million, compared to ₹113 million in the previous year’s quarter.

Financial Performance Overview

The divergence between revenue decline and margin compression highlights operational challenges during the period. The following table outlines the key financial metrics:

What the Numbers Show

The most critical observation is the disproportionate collapse in operating efficiency relative to revenue growth. While revenue fell by approximately 10%, EBITDA nearly halved, causing the EBITDA margin to contract by 730 basis points (from 13.6% to 6.3%). This suggests that cost structures did not adjust proportionally to the drop in sales volume or pricing pressures impacted gross margins significantly. Furthermore, the transition from a net profit of ₹34 million to a net loss of ₹101 million implies that factors beyond operating losses—such as interest expenses, tax provisions, or other income adjustments—may have contributed to the widened bottom-line deficit, as the operating loss (EBITDA shortfall) alone does not fully account for the ₹135 million swing in net profit.

The company faces immediate pressure to restore margin stability and reverse the loss trajectory in subsequent quarters.
