Syngene Q1 PAT up 59% to ₹87 crore, operational revenue rises 11%

Biocon arm Syngene International's consolidated net profit rose to Rs 87 crore, up 59 per cent year-on-year (Y-o-Y) in the first quarter of the financial year 2026 (Q1 FY26) ended June 30, according to a company statement. Revenue from operations grew 11 per cent Y-o-Y to Rs 875 crore. The performance was driven by continued conversion of pilot programmes into long-term contracts within the Research Services business. The Q1 FY25 profit after tax (PAT) excludes an exceptional item of Rs 21 crore (net of tax) relating to a final settlement from an insurance claim. The reported revenue stood at Rs 892 crore in Q1 FY26, up 10 per cent. The company's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation) stood at Rs 224 crore—a 19 per cent increase—driven by revenue growth and cost optimisation. The EBITDA margin stood at 25 per cent. Bains added that Syngene continues to strengthen and expand its scientific platform capabilities, including the launch of a state-of-the-art, dedicated peptide laboratory, while remaining mindful of ongoing macroeconomic factors. Syngene has appointed Chethan Yogesh as the secretary and compliance officer of the company with effect from July 23. Yogesh was previously associated with technology firms including Wipro and IBM. The company also completed a USFDA GCP inspection of its Human Pharmacology Unit with no observations and received a favourable Voluntary Action Indicated (VAI) outcome for its Biologics facility. Syngene noted that over 20 client and regulatory audits in Q1 FY26 reinforced its global quality standards. Deepak Jain, chief financial officer, Syngene International Limited, said: 'The current quarter's PAT includes a tax benefit arising from transfer of gratuity funds to the Employee Gratuity Trust. We continue to maintain a robust balance sheet enabling us to invest in technology and capabilities to strengthen our customer offerings. While keeping a close watch on market trends, we remain on course to deliver in line with our stated guidance for the year.' Syngene announced its results after market close on Wednesday. During the session, the company's shares were up 0.50 per cent at Rs 679.65 apiece on the BSE.
