Peer’s Q1 Earnings
Out of the three shipbuilding companies, Mazagon Dock will be the last to release its June quarter financial results. Garden Reach’s numbers were mixed, but earlier Cochin Shipyard numbers had left an impression on the street.
In the June quarter, Cochin Shipyard recorded a 62 per cent year-over-year increase in revenue to Rs 771 crore. Additionally, the company’s earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) more than doubled compared to the same period last year.
In comparison to the same quarter previous fiscal year, Garden Reach also recorded a 22 per cent increase in EBITDA and a 34 per cent increase in revenue. However, because material costs were higher than they were in the same quarter last year, margins decreased.
