2 quarters summarised from transcripts filed with the exchange, every statement cited. Newest first.
Filatex reported Q1 FY27 revenue of Rs 1,145 crore, up 16.3% quarter-on-quarter and 9.1% year-on-year, with PAT rising to Rs 49.1 crore. Management attributed the revenue increase to higher realizations driven by raw material price movements rather than volume growth, as sales volumes were roughly stable sequentially but lower year-on-year. The company also discussed progress on its Rs 690 crore capex program, including the PFY brownfield expansion, the Ecosis textile recycling project, and a steam distribution initiative.
Filatex reported year-on-year growth in profitability for Q4 and FY26 despite a decline in revenue and volume, with management attributing the mixed performance to crude-linked input cost volatility from the Iran-Israel-US conflict. Full-year EBITDA rose 34.5% to INR 346.50 crores and PAT rose 36.7% to INR 183.9 crores, even as revenue declined slightly to INR 4,160 crores. Management also detailed a INR 690 crore capex program covering PFY, Brownfield, FDY/DTY, a textile-to-textile recycling Greenfield project, automation, and renewable energy, expected to add INR 218-230 crores of annual EBITDA.
