Commenting on the results, Mr. Deepak Jalan, Managing Director, Linc Limited said:
“Total income for the quarter stood at ₹13,940 lakhs, representing year on year growth of 0.9%. The performance
remained broadly stable despite an uncertain operating environment and reflected varying trends across our
revenue segments. Corporate Sales declined by 14% against a high prior year base, while Exports decreased by 3%,
primarily due to geopolitical uncertainties affecting global trade flows. In contrast, General Trade grew by 8%, while
e-commerce maintained strong momentum, registering growth of 32%. This growth was supported by sustained
demand for our product portfolio and the increasing contribution from Linc On, our e-commerce focused subsidiary.
Corporate Sales are inherently requirement based and subject to the timing of order execution. Consequently,
quarterly fluctuations are a characteristic of the segment and do not indicate a structural change in the business. The
steady growth in General Trade and the strong performance of e-commerce underscore the continued progress of
our consumer focused brand and distribution initiatives, notwithstanding the external headwinds affecting the
export business.
EBITDA for the quarter stood at ₹1,254 lakhs, with an EBITDA margin of 9.0%, representing a year on year
contraction of 139 basis points. The margin pressure was primarily attributable to an increase in polymer prices, our
principal raw material, driven by supply constraints and higher crude oil prices. Given the prevailing competitive
environment, the pass through of higher input costs will be undertaken gradually over the coming quarters. In the
interim, we remain focused on mitigating the impact through disciplined cost management while closely monitoring
input cost movements.
Profit after tax for the quarter stood at ₹581 lakhs, translating into a PAT margin of 4.2%.

Looking ahead, elevated polymer prices remain a near term consideration. However, we expect these pressures to
ease progressively and will continue to maintain a disciplined approach to cost management in the interim.
Our international growth initiatives continue to progress broadly in line with our previously outlined plans. Uni Linc,
our joint venture with Mitsubishi Pencil Co., remains operationally stable, with exports accounting for more than
50% of its revenue during the quarter. Operations at our joint venture in Türkiye continues to progress steadily.
The development of our subsidiary with Morris of Korea remains linked to the commissioning of the upcoming
manufacturing facility in West Bengal, which is expected to become operational by Q3 FY27. Sales momentum at our
Kenya subsidiary has begun to improve, and we expect this positive trend to strengthen over the coming quarters.
Linc On has remained stable in the current quarter and is expected to gain momentum in the periods ahead.
While the ramp up of some of these initiatives has taken longer than initially envisaged, we believe the foundations
being established are robust and well considered. The benefits of an improving product mix, disciplined execution
and deepening strategic partnerships are expected to become increasingly visible as near term input cost pressures
moderate. We remain committed to strengthening the business and creating a platform for sustainable long term
growth.”
