DMCC Speciality Chemicals Limited reported a significant financial performance for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 (Q1FY27). The company's revenue from operations stood at ₹253.01 crore, a substantial increase compared to ₹177.64 crore in the same period last year. Total income rose to ₹253.31 crore from ₹177.80 crore.
Profit After Taxes (PAT) saw a dramatic surge of 166.58%, reaching ₹20.40 crore in Q1FY27, up from ₹7.65 crore in Q1FY26. EBITDA also grew by 92.78% to ₹34.43 crore, with EBITDA margins improving to 13.59% from 10.05% in the previous year. This strong profitability was primarily driven by a significant escalation in sulphur and sulfuric acid prices, though a portion of the reported profitability reflects inventory gains which are expected to reverse as prices moderate.
Bimal Goculdas, Managing Director and CEO, commented on the results, noting that while the revenue and profitability grew sharply, shareholders should interpret these numbers with the understanding that inventory gains played a role. The pricing environment also stretched the company's working capital, leading to material growth in receivables and inventory balances, which are being managed through short-term borrowings.
Despite global supply chain disruptions, particularly concerning the Strait of Hormuz, both DMCC's Dahej and Roha facilities operated without interruption, passing on cost increases fully without losing volumes. The company highlighted its reliability as a supplier, which has strengthened customer relationships. The Boron segment met its quarterly targets with improved demand, pricing, and supply. In speciality chemicals, exports to Latin America, China, and Japan are compensating for a subdued European market, indicating progress in geographic diversification.
Goculdas expressed confidence in delivering more sustainable performance reflective of DMCC's true potential once the operating environment stabilizes, emphasizing the ongoing efforts to make the company structurally stronger.
