Notably, trading volumes surged to 3,007 shares on 11 February, suggesting increased activity possibly linked to repositioning ahead of the company’s quarterly results.
Q3 FY26 Results on 12 February: Flat Revenue and Mounting Losses
Sainik Finance released its Q3 FY26 results on 12 February, reporting flat net sales and operating profit, continuing a trend of financial underperformance.

| Date | Stock Price | Day Change | Sensex | Day Change |

Key Takeaways
Positive Signals: The stock’s 8.01% weekly gain significantly outperformed the Sensex’s 0.54% decline, driven largely by technical improvements and a rating upgrade. The Mojo Score improvement to 31.0 and the shift from Strong Sell to Sell reflect a less severe downtrend and some short-term momentum gains. Valuation metrics remain attractive, with a Price to Book ratio of 0.9 and a strong Return on Equity of 12.5%, suggesting potential value for investors despite weak fundamentals.
Cautionary Notes: The company’s financial performance remains subdued, with flat Q3 FY26 results and ongoing declines in net sales and operating profit. The long-term trend shows structural challenges, and the stock has underperformed broader indices over one- and three-year periods. The technical upgrade does not yet signal a full recovery, and the Mojo Grade of Sell indicates continued caution.

Conclusion
The week for Sainik Finance & Industries Ltd was characterised by a notable technical rebound and a positive market response despite persistent fundamental headwinds. The upgrade from Strong Sell to Sell by MarketsMOJO reflects a cautious shift in sentiment, driven by improved technical indicators and attractive valuation ratios. However, the company’s flat quarterly results and long-term negative sales and profit trends underscore ongoing challenges. Investors should remain vigilant, balancing the recent technical optimism against the company’s structural issues and subdued growth prospects. The stock’s performance this week highlights the complex interplay between technical momentum and fundamental realities in shaping market behaviour.
