Q1 results

The company posted a 33.24% year-on-year (YoY) surge in its consolidated net profit to ₹62.81 crore during the quarter, compared with ₹47.14 crore in the first quarter of the 2025-26 fiscal year (Q1 FY26).

Aether Industries recorded revenue from operations of ₹326.56 crore in the June quarter of FY27, marking a 27.25% YoY increase from ₹256.63 crore in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year, according to a regulatory filing.

The top-line growth was driven by a strong performance across all three of the company’s business verticals.

The company said it saw no decline in its LSM products for the reporting period, and pricing remained strong, rising 22.5% YoY. LSM volume grew 11.7% quarter-on-quarter (QoQ), but fell 22% YoY, principally because certain production lines were reallocated to the CEM vertical as a deliberate strategic decision, it stated.

Its portfolio remained diversified across sectors, with the pharmaceutical and agrochemical sectors contributing 32.2% and 9.5% of revenue from operations, respectively. Oil and gas contributed 31.4%, crossing ₹1,000 million of revenue for the quarter for the first time. Furthermore, Material science contributed 16.6%.

The company’s EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation) margin expanded by 112 basis points (bps) YoY to 31.47% in Q1 FY27, as against 30.61% in the year-ago period, bolstered by the increased contribution from the CRAMS and CEM verticals.

Aether Industries also maintained its guidance of approximately 30% EBITDA margin in FY27.

Its raw material prices, which had risen in March at the onset of the Middle Eastern crisis, remained stable through the quarter.

“We have been able to pass the earlier increases through to customers, as reflected in gross margin of 49.83% in Q1 FY 2027 against 47.93% in Q1 FY 2026,” Aether Industries added.

Aether Industries has a total market capitalisation of ₹20,808 crore as of July 31, 2026, according to data on the NSE.
