GMM Pfaudler, a diversified global engineering company, has delivered a strong performance in the first quarter of FY27, driven by revenue growth, improved profitability and robust order momentum.

 

The company reported consolidated revenue of Rs. 925 crore for Q1 FY27, marking a 16% year-on-year increase, while EBITDA stood at Rs. 94 crore with an EBITDA margin of 10.1%. Profit after tax (PAT) surged 118% YoY and 44% QoQ to Rs. 22 crore, with a PAT margin of 2.4%. Earnings per share stood at Rs. 5.32.

 

GMM Pfaudler’s order intake remained strong at Rs. 1,007 crore, registering a 16% sequential growth, while the order backlog expanded to Rs. 2,289 crore, up 20% YoY and 4% QoQ, highlighting continued demand strength across its markets.

 

During the quarter, the company reorganized its businesses into four distinct global divisions as part of its broader transformation programme aimed at accelerating growth, improving operational efficiency and creating a more agile global structure.

 

GMM Pfaudler also announced plans to repay approximately EUR 7 million of debt by the end of Q2 FY27, funded through internal accruals. The company has also revised its dividend payout frequency from semi-annual to annual, while maintaining its existing Dividend Distribution Policy.

 

Tarak Patel, Managing Director, said: "Revenue for Q1 FY27 grew 16% year-on-year, reflecting the strength of our diversified business portfolio and execution capabilities. 

 

"While EBITDA was lower compared to the corresponding quarter last year, the initiatives undertaken over the past year have improved our earnings flow-through, resulting in profit after tax more than doubling year-on-year. Our order intake momentum continues to remain strong, with our backlog increasing 20% YoY.

 

“As part of our ongoing Global Transformation Programme, we have now reorganized our businesses into four distinct divisions. This new global structure allows each division to focus on its strategic priorities, while unlocking meaningful value across the group. 

 

"We believe this strategic realignment will enable us to leverage our global scale more effectively, unlock operational synergies, improve profitability, and support our long-term vision of building a diversified, technology-driven global engineering company."

 

Gregory Gelhaus, Group CEO, said: 'Q1 marks a positive start to the year and reflects the benefits of the strategic decisions and operational initiatives undertaken over the past year. With our new global operating structure now in place, our focus is on driving execution, strengthening accountability, and accelerating growth. This multi-quarter transformation programme is designed to build a simpler, more efficient organization with higher-quality earnings and a stronger cash generation."

 

With a strengthened order book, improving profitability and a new global operating model in place, GMM Pfaudler remains focused on building a more diversified and technology-led engineering platform for long-term growth.
