Rationale The outlook revision reflects the persistence of performance metrics at levels weaker than earlier expectations amid industry and regulatory headwinds, with the durability of intermittent improvements yet to be established. Following a recovery in operating performance during FY2024 and FY2025, the company witnessed performance pressures in FY2026. A marginal moderation in net operating income (NOI) amid subdued market conditions, along with elevated employee expenses, weighed on the profitability in FY2026. Consequently, Emkay reported moderate profitability with net profit of Rs. 15 crore, profit before tax (PBT) (excluding mark-to-market gains)/NOI of 6% and return on net worth (RoNW) of 4% in FY2026 lower than the respective three-year averages of Rs. 35 crore, 11% and 13%. The company’s cost structure remains elevated on account of high employee-related expenses in the investment banking and institutional broking segments. Its gradual scale-up in the recently forayed clearing business is likely to support margins. However, a meaningful improvement in profitability will hinge on the timely and consistent execution of its sizeable pipeline of merchant banking mandates, with the recovery timeline remaining dependent on investor sentiment and prevailing market conditions. The ratings reaffirmation and Stable outlook continue to factor in Emkay’s established market position with a track record of over three decades in the capital markets, and its comfortable capitalisation profile for the current scale of operations, supported by the recent capital raise. The credit profile is, however, constrained by the company’s modest scale of operations and its exposure to the inherently volatile capital markets, besides the high dependence on technology, the evolving regulatory environment and elevated cost structure. Key rating drivers and their description Credit strengths Long track record in capital market-related business – Emkay has a track record of over three decades in the capital markets industry, with a diversified presence across institutional and retail securities broking, clearing services, margin trade financing, www.icra .in 1 Sensitivity Label : Public Page | investment banking, wealth management and asset management.

Emkay's institutional equities franchise benefits from a research platform comprising 45 analysts with coverage across over 240 companies and spanning 22 sectors. The company remains an institutionally focussed brokerage house, deriving around 50% of its NOI from the institutional broking segment while maintaining a cash turnover market share of over 1%. The breadth of its institutional offering has been further enhanced by its recent foray into clearing services, under which it currently manages cash collateral of about Rs. 300 crore. Emkay also has an established investment banking franchise, with a differentiated focus on the small and mid-cap segment. In FY2026, it executed equity capital market transactions aggregating Rs. 4,178 crore, translating into net fee income of Rs. 31 crore. Additionally, the company caters to retail, high net worth (HNI) and ultra-high net worth (UHNI) clients. As on March 31, 2026, it had 11,147 active National Stock Exchange (NSE) clients. Comfortable capitalisation for current scale of operations – As on June 30, 2026, Emkay's capitalisation profile remained comfortable, characterised by a net worth of ~Rs. 410 crore and a gearing of 0.3 times on a provisional basis. The company primarily utilises borrowings to support the working capital requirements of its broking, clearing and margin trade financing businesses. In line with industry trends, the working capital intensity increased in the recent period amid the evolving regulatory landscape. While the company has started availing fund-based borrowings in recent years, these are largely utilised towards availing bank guarantees and intraday facilities.
