Risk intelligence
Inventory jumped from ₹180 crore to ₹241 crore and supplier advances doubled from ₹32 crore to ₹91 crore YoY. Analyst raised concern about withheld dispatches affecting revenue recognition; management attributed it to half-completed orders awaiting completion.
SP UK margin moderated to 5.1% due to lower services contribution; KPML margin compressed from 12.5% to 7.3%; Netherlands entity reporting losses. All three expected to improve but timing uncertain.
EBITDA margin declined from 13% in Q4 to 10.8% in Q1 on consolidated basis—a 300bps sequential drop. Analyst directly questioned this; management attributed to product mix and delayed service revenues.
Standalone order intake grew only 3% and consolidated 4% YoY. Management disclosed a large order was delayed, though claiming underlying booking growth at 14.9%. Timing risk remains for revenue conversion.
