T. V. Chowdary: Thank you, Mr. Akhilesh and good afternoon, everyone. I welcome you all to the earnings
conference call of Premier Explosives for the first quarter ended June 30, 2026. Thank you for
joining us. I trust you have reviewed our Q1 financial year '27 results along with the investor
presentation available on the stock exchanges and on our website.
During Q1 FY '27, we reported revenue of INR102.6 crores, reflecting a decline of 28% year-
on-year. The quarter was impacted by delays in dispatches and project execution, primarily due
to ongoing global headwinds and supply chain disruptions across certain programs. While these
factors affected near-term revenue recognition, the underlying demand environment for our
products and solutions remains robust.
On the profitability front, operating performance was impacted by elevated raw material costs
amid prevailing global market conditions. The increase in input prices created temporary
pressure on margins during the quarter. However, we continue to focus on operational efficiency,
cost optimization and disciplined execution of -- execution to mitigate these challenges.
Encouragingly, we believe that many of these external headwinds are gradually easing as supply
chain stabilize and execution improves, we expect a stronger operational performance and better

revenue conversion in the coming quarters. Most importantly, our business fundamentals remain
strong.
As of today, our order book stands at INR1,393 crores with approximately 94% of the order
book coming from Defense segment. The healthy order backlog provides strong revenue
visibility and reinforces our confidence in the company's growth trajectory. Also regarding the
recent acquisition by Apollo Micro Systems.
We believe this marks a significant milestone in Premier Explosive's growth journey and opens
up exciting opportunities for the company. The partnership brings together Apollo's strengths in
defense electronics and mission-critical systems with Premier's capability in energetic materials,
rocket motors, ammunition and propulsion systems, creating a broader and more integrated
defense platform.
For Premier, the strategic benefits are clear, enhanced access to larger and more complex defense
programs, stronger technology and R&D capabilities, a wider customer reach and improved
operational efficiencies through scale and collaboration. The combined strengths will also
strengthen our position in India's growth defense -- growing defense indigenization and export
opportunities.
We believe this partnership will accelerate Premier's next phase of growth, strengthen our
competitive positioning and create long-term value for all stakeholders. We remain excited about
the opportunities ahead and look forward to unlocking the full potential of this partnership.
Now I request Mr. Vijay Kumar, our CFO, to share the financial performance.
Vijay Kumar: Thank you, sir. Good afternoon, everyone. The result presentation for the quarter ended June 30,
2026, has been uploaded on the stock exchanges and on the company's website. I believe you
may have gone through the same. The revenue from operations for Q1 FY '27 de-grew by 28%
year-on-year to INR102.6 crores.
Our EBIT for Q1 FY '27 de-grew by 80% year-on-year to INR4.8 crores. The EBIT margin for
the quarter stands at 4.7%. Our net profit decreased by 80% year-on-year to INR3 crores. The
PAT margin for the quarter stands at 3%. Now coming to the order book. The company's current
order book stands at INR1,393 crores, out of which Defense segment order is majority of
INR1,309 crores, which is equal to 94% of the total order book.
Explosives segment stands at INR42 crores, which is equal to 3% of the total order book and
Service segment, which is Operational and Maintenance Services segment stands at INR42
crores, which is equal to 3% of the total order book. This order book reflects the strong growth
