M&B Engineering Reports Strong 69% Revenue Growth in Q1 FY26, Eyes 25%+ Topline with Robust Order Book and Capacity Expansion
The announcement details substantial financial growth in Q1 FY26, significant capacity expansion plans across divisions, and a strong order book, including high-margin export orders. New market opportunities in railways and agri warehousing for the Proflex division, coupled with ambitious growth targets, suggest a high positive impact on the company's future performance and market position.
The company reported strong Q1 FY26 financial results with significant revenue and PAT growth, improved EBITDA margins, and a robust order book. Strategic initiatives like capacity expansion, increased focus on high-margin exports, and new approvals for the Proflex division indicate strong future growth potential and market opportunities.
* M&B Engineering Limited (MBEL) announced a robust financial performance for the quarter ended June 2025 (Q1 FY26), with consolidated revenue from operations growing by 69% to ₹237.65 crore, compared to ₹140.22 crore in Q1 FY25. The company's bottomline growth was even stronger, with Profit After Tax (PAT) increasing to ₹17.95 crore from ₹6.94 crore in Q1 FY25. * EBITDA for Q1 FY26 stood at ₹33.68 crore, up from ₹16.29 crore in Q1 FY25, leading to an improved reported EBITDA margin of 14.17% compared to 11.62% in the corresponding previous quarter. * As of 1 July 2025, MBEL reported a strong order book of approximately ₹843 crore. This includes ₹634 crore for its Phoenix (Pre-Engineered Building - PEB) division and ₹209 crore for its Proflex (self-supported roofing) division. * New order intake during Q1 FY26 totaled ₹277.62 crore, comprising ₹80 crore for Proflex and ₹196.80 crore for Phoenix. The company is targeting a minimum of ₹1,200 crore in new orders for the full FY26. * Exports are a key growth driver, with pending PEB export orders of about ₹123 crore, predominantly to North America (US and Canada). MBEL aims to increase its US exports by over three times in FY26 compared to FY25 (which saw ₹65 crore in exports). The Sanand facility holds American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) and Canadian Welding Bureau (CWB) certifications, enhancing its global competitiveness. Despite a 50% sectoral tariff in the US, export margins remain higher than domestic margins. The company aims for exports to contribute at least 20% of its topline within the next two years. * The Cheyyar PEB plant in Tamil Nadu, which commenced operations for 4-5 months in FY25, will be fully operational in FY26, contributing an additional 15,000-18,000 metric tons of production, primarily servicing the Southern Indian market. * The Proflex division's self-supporting steel roofing systems have been approved by the Indian Railway Board for use in Vande Bharat sheds, railway platforms, and railway underbridges (RUBs) to prevent monsoon flooding. This opens up a significant opportunity given approximately 20,000 level crossings in India. Additionally, a government decision for Primary Agriculture Credit Societies (PACS) to install Proflex roofing for agri warehousing presents a massive growth opportunity. * To support future growth, MBEL is undertaking expansion projects: * Sanand Brownfield expansion: Augmenting PEB capacity by 20,000 tons per year, mainly for North American exports, expected to be operational in Q1 FY27. * Cheyyar PEB Brownfield expansion: An additional 20,000 capacity, targeted for Q1 FY28. * Proflex capacity: Augmenting by procuring additional mobile units in the current fiscal year, complementing its existing 14 mobile units. * Management Comment: Mr. Malav Patel, Joint Managing Director, expressed pleasure in the company's first post-listing results call and thanked investors for the successful IPO. He highlighted the strong Q1 FY26 consolidated growth. The company is targeting an overall topline growth of over 25% in FY26 and anticipates further improvement in EBITDA margins due to increased exports. For years beyond FY26, a year-over-year growth target of at least 20% has been set.
