Key takeaways
- ADL reported a standalone net loss of Rs 0.25 cr in Q1FY27, with EPS at -Rs 0.45.
- Expenses of Rs 11.07 cr exceeded revenue of Rs 11.05 cr, leaving operating profit at -Rs 0.02 cr.
- Other income of Rs 0.41 cr did not offset Rs 0.39 cr of interest and Rs 0.34 cr of depreciation, while a Rs 0.08 cr tax credit reduced the loss.
Revenue was narrowly below the cost base
ADL's standalone revenue of Rs 11.05 cr was slightly below expenses of Rs 11.07 cr, resulting in a Rs 0.02 cr operating loss. The near break-even operating result still translated into a Rs 0.25 cr net loss after interest, depreciation and tax.
Interest and depreciation widened the loss
Profit before tax was therefore negative at Rs 0.33 cr. The Rs 0.08 cr tax credit reduced the reported loss to Rs 0.25 cr, so the tax line softened rather than drove the result.
