Cochin Shipyard reported a strong Q1 FY26 with revenue of INR 1,068.59 crore (+38.5% YoY) and PAT of INR 187.82 crore (+7.8% YoY), driven by robust execution in shipbuilding and repair. EBITDA margin stood at 28%, though management guided full-year margins lower to ~20% due to a normalizing ship repair mix after last year's aircraft carrier work. The order book remains healthy at ~INR 21,000 crore (75 vessels), with new MoUs with HD KSOE and Drydocks World expected to drive long-term growth. Revenue guidance for FY26 is 14-15% growth, with PAT margin around 15%. Key risk: delays in defense order conversions (e.g., IAC-2) could impact future pipeline visibility.
कोचीन शिपयार्ड ने वित्त वर्ष 2025-26 की पहली तिमाही में शानदार प्रदर्शन किया। कंपनी की कमाई 1,068.59 करोड़ रुपये रही, जो पिछले साल की समान तिमाही से 38.5% अधिक है। मुनाफा 187.82 करोड़ रुपये रहा, जो 7.8% की बढ़त दर्शाता है। यह वृद्धि जहाज निर्माण और मरम्मत के बेहतर काम के कारण हुई। कंपनी का परिचालन मुनाफा (EBITDA) 28% रहा, लेकिन प्रबंधन ने पूरे साल के लिए इसे घटकर लगभग 20% रहने का अनुमान जताया है। इसकी वजह यह है कि पिछले साल विमानवाहक पोत की मरम्मत के बाद अब सामान्य जहाजों की मरम्मत का मिश्रण बदल रहा है। कंपनी के पास 21,000 करोड़ रुपये के ऑर्डर (75 जहाज) हैं। नई साझेदारियों से लंबी अवधि में वृद्धि की उम्मीद है। वित्त वर्ष 2026 में कमाई 14-15% बढ़ने और मुनाफा 15% रहने का अनुमान है। मुख्य जोखिम: रक्षा ऑर्डर मिलने में देरी से भविष्य के काम पर असर पड़ सकता है।
