The stock experienced a three-day decline, falling from Rs.26.40 on 10 February to Rs.25.23 by 12 February, a cumulative drop of 4.38%.

13 February 2026: Remarkable Q4 Turnaround Spurs 7.53% Rally
The stock rebounded sharply on 13 February, surging 7.53% to close at Rs.27.13, its highest level of the week. This rally was triggered by the release of Pritish Nandy Communications Ltd’s Q4 2025 financial results, which revealed a striking turnaround from previous quarters. The company reported net sales of ₹13.98 crores for the six-month period, a 106.8% increase year-on-year, alongside record quarterly earnings with a Profit After Tax of ₹7.33 crores. Operating profit margins expanded to 21.9%, and Profit Before Tax excluding other income reached ₹2.01 crores, signalling improved operational efficiency and market demand.
Despite these positive developments, the Earnings Per Share remained negative at ₹-7.04, reflecting prior losses or accounting adjustments. Additionally, the debtors turnover ratio was reported at 0.00 times, indicating potential challenges in receivables collection. These factors tempered the overall optimism but did not prevent the stock’s strong intraday performance.
Same Day Volatility: Massive Q3 FY26 Loss Dampens Sentiment
Later on 13 February, the company disclosed a massive loss for Q3 FY26, which wiped out some of the gains from the Q4 turnaround announcement. This news introduced volatility into the stock’s trading, reflecting investor concerns about the sustainability of the recent financial improvements. The juxtaposition of a strong Q4 performance with a significant Q3 loss underscores the company’s ongoing operational challenges and the need for consistent profitability.

Key Takeaways
Positive Signals: The company’s Q4 2025 financials demonstrate a significant turnaround with more than doubling of net sales and record profitability metrics. Operating margins expanded to 21.9%, and Profit After Tax reached ₹7.33 crores, the highest quarterly figure to date. The stock’s 7.53% surge on 13 February reflects market recognition of these improvements, especially in a challenging media sector environment.
Cautionary Signals: Despite the strong Q4 results, the negative Earnings Per Share of ₹-7.04 and a debtors turnover ratio of 0.00 times highlight ongoing operational and cash flow concerns. The massive loss reported for Q3 FY26 on the same day as the Q4 announcement introduces uncertainty about the consistency of earnings. Thin trading volumes during the week suggest limited liquidity and investor hesitation.
Conclusion
Pritish Nandy Communications Ltd’s week was characterised by a blend of optimism and caution. The remarkable Q4 turnaround offers a glimpse of potential recovery, supported by robust revenue growth and improved profitability. However, the simultaneous disclosure of a significant Q3 loss and persistent working capital challenges temper enthusiasm. The stock’s 1.61% weekly gain, outperforming the Sensex’s 0.54% decline, indicates selective investor interest amid broader market weakness. Going forward, sustained operational improvements and resolution of receivables issues will be critical for the company to translate its financial progress into consistent shareholder value.
