Skipper delivered a record Q4 FY26 with revenue of ₹1,666 crore (+29.4% YoY) and EBITDA of ₹173.4 crore (+40.2% YoY), driven by strong execution in the engineering segment (₹1,248 crore, +33% YoY). PAT surged 70% YoY to ₹75.6 crore, with EBITDA margins expanding 80 bps to 10.4% on operating leverage and better cost structure. The full-year order book hit a record ₹8,519 crore with inflows of ₹5,678 crore. Management guided for FY27 revenue growth of 15% and PAT growth of 30%, citing conservative export outlook due to geopolitical headwinds.
