The full read
NHC Foods closed FY26 with ₹601 crore in revenue, a 73% increase that reflects the consolidation of its new Hong Kong-based acquisition, Conquer Enterprises.
It was a massive quarter.
Fourth-quarter revenue jumped 92% to ₹258 crore, while net profit surged 642% to ₹6.7 crore as the new subsidiary began contributing to the bottom line. While these growth rates are high for a nano-cap firm, they were largely expected by the market following earlier disclosures about the acquisition. The company is now focused on its next phase of expansion, reiterating plans to raise $27 million through equity-linked instruments. What changes from here is the execution of that capital raise and the ability to sustain these margins as the new business unit integrates fully.
