Financial Performance for Q3 FY26
Cyient DLM Limited announced the financial results for the third quarter of FY26 on Tuesday after market hours, as per the latest regulatory filings with the stock exchanges.
For the quarter, the company posted a consolidated revenue from operations of Rs. 303.34 crores, reflecting a sequential decline of over 2 percent QoQ compared to Rs. 310.6 crores in Q2 FY26. Likewise, on a year-on-year basis, revenue fell nearly 32 percent from Rs. 444.23 crores recorded in Q3 FY25.
Net profit for Q3 FY26 stood at Rs. 11.2 crore, indicating a significant decrease of around 65 percent QoQ from Rs. 32 crores in Q2 FY26, but a marginal growth on a year-on-year basis by nearly 2 percent from Rs. 11 crores reported in Q3 FY25.
The quarter captured the impact of temporary customer-side slowdowns and certain one-off factors. The company also highlighted its continued operational resilience, driven by a stronger focus on proactive risk identification and mitigation, which is critical given its exposure to mission-critical sectors. The year-on-year moderation in revenue and margins was largely attributable to the completion of a large order in FY25.
Order Book
On the order book front, momentum remained strong. Year-to-date order intake crossed Rs. 1,400 crore, marking an 87 percent YoY growth. During the quarter alone, fresh orders of around Rs. 387 crore were secured, supporting an expansion in the overall order book.
In Q3 FY26, the company’s consolidated revenue mix was well diversified across industries and product categories. By industry, aerospace emerged as the largest contributor with a 37 percent share, followed by industrial at 30 percent and med-tech at 16 percent, while defence contributed 8 percent and other segments accounted for 9 percent.
On a YoY basis, defence revenue declined sharply by 88 percent due to the completion of a large order, whereas aerospace recorded a healthy 12 percent growth. Focused efforts in the industrial and med-tech segments translated into strong YoY growth in these areas.
From a product perspective, PCBA continued to dominate the revenue mix with a 51 percent share. Box build accounted for 25 percent, cables contributed 2 percent, and mechanical and other products made up the remaining 22 percent. Notably, the box build segment’s share increased to 31 percent compared with 21 percent in Q3 FY25, while the mechanical and others category delivered a robust 50 percent YoY growth.
