Revenue did not cover Q1FY27 expenses

NIBL's consolidated revenue of 18.9 was below expenses of 20.52, resulting in an operating loss of 1.61. The shortfall left operating margin at -8.54%, indicating that the quarter was loss-making before interest and depreciation.

Interest and depreciation widened the loss

Interest of 3.43 and depreciation of 2.54 pushed the consolidated result from an operating loss to a profit-before-tax loss of 6.59. Other income of 0.98 provided only limited support, while the zero tax rate did not create a tax benefit because the company was already loss-making.

No quarter-on-quarter or yearly comparison is available
