Swan Corp Ltd. reported revenue of ₹1,142 cr for April to June 2024, +42.0% on the year and −18.3% on the quarter.
Operating profit (EBITDA) was ₹381 cr, a margin of 33.4%, +388 bps on the year and +2,492 bps on the quarter. Operating costs grew +34.2% against revenue growth of +42.0%, so more of each rupee of sales reached operating profit.
Net profit was ₹268 cr, +84.8% on the year and +378.6% on the quarter, with earnings per share of ₹4.43. Profit before other income, one-offs and tax grew faster, at +96.7%; other income, one-offs or tax held the headline back.
Speciality chemicals are read on volumes and pricing, with Chinese supply a recurring swing factor; inventory destocking can hit a quarter without a change in demand. The quarterly statements do not carry volumes against prices, capacity utilisation and new molecules; those come with the filing read.
On earnings per share of ₹12.84 over the last four quarters, the stock at ₹242.14 trades at 18.9 times trailing earnings.
Written from the quarterly statements. The filing read adds the balance sheet and cash flow, the auditor's review, segment results, one-off items line by line and what management said on the call.
No check fired. That is a statement about the checks below, not a verdict on the company.
Could not run on this quarter: Exceptional items that recur, Cash behind the profit, Receivables against sales, Inventory against sales, Borrowing while holding cash, Auditor's review or audit report, IPO money used as stated, Related-party transactions, Exits, postponements, restatements, Promoter pledges and allotments, Earlier promises against delivery, When the results were filed. Most need the filing read (balance sheet, cash flow, auditor, disclosures).
Net profit a year ago, each driver's change, and net profit now. Blue added profit, red took it away.

Numbers as filed with the exchanges, read by rules. Every flag is a question with its source, not an accusation. FinMinutes is a financial data and analytics platform; nothing here is a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any security. How each check works.
