Thank you, Nitin. Good evening everyone, especially to our esteemed investors, board members, and friends of Ecoline Exim Limited. Thank you for joining us today. It's both a privilege and a responsibility to stand before you and present the story of our financial year 2025-26.
The last financial year was not a straightforward year, not for us and not for any exporter operating in the global markets. We have navigated three significant headwinds simultaneously: the imposition of fresh tariff barriers by US administration, the continued disruption caused by Russia and Ukraine war, and the escalating conflict in Middle East that has severely impacted Red Sea and Suez Canal shipping routes.
Yet, I stand before you proud to say that we have achieved our production targets for the last financial year. Our factories ran, our team delivered, and our order pipeline held strong. The revenue was reported at INR286.88 crores, does not fully reflect the ground reality of what we produced and what we were ready to ship.
Ecoline Exim Limited
We closed the year with a finished goods inventory of INR15.74 crores, goods produced, packed, and ready, but unable to be dispatched due to shipping constraints. Had the shipping constraint been normal, we were confident that we would have comfortably met our internal target of around INR300 to INR320 crores.
This is not an excuse, it is a context. Our PAT stands at INR20.18 crores at a margin of 7.25% and our order book as of 30th April 2026 stands to a healthy number INR95 crores in export orders plus confirmed domestic orders for around 60,000 polyester backpacks from a reputed Indian brand. The business is strong, the demand is real, and the growth trajectory is intact.
This year, we expanded our business to around 35 countries in total and took a significant geographic leap entering five new Latin American markets in countries like Peru, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Uruguay. And we are very proud to inform that we are serving around 35+ countries, up from 27 countries in the last to last financial year. The diversification is deliberate.
It reduces the concentration risk and opens up new revenue pools and positions Ecoline as a truly global sustainable packaging partner.
To summarize, last year where we produced more than what we could ship and entered more markets than ever before and laid the foundation for our most ambitious growth phase yet. We are grateful for your continued trust in Ecoline Exim Limited. The company you have invested in is stronger, larger, and more capable than it was 12 months ago. We fully intended to demonstrate that the numbers we deliver in the year ahead. So, I would like to thank everybody and hand over again to Nitin.
Thank you very much. We will now begin the question-and-answer session. As there are no questions in the queue, I now hand over the conference to Mr. Nitin Jain from Hem Securities for closing comments. Over to you.
Thank you, Yashashri. On behalf of Hem Securities Limited, I would like to sincerely thank the Ecoline Exim management team for taking the time to join us today and for responding to all the queries in such a detailed and insightful manner. I would also like to thank all the participants for joining this call for their active participation. With this, I would now like to hand it over to Yashashri for closing remarks.
Thank you. On behalf of Ecoline Exim Limited, that concludes this conference. Thank you for joining us and you may now disconnect your lines.
