Operational Insights and Management Commentary​

Mr. Ramkumar Senthilvel, Managing Director of Glottis Limited, commented on the performance, noting that the first quarter reflected an improvement in revenue despite a volatile global logistics environment, which was affected by geopolitical developments and changes in freight rates across key trade corridors.

During the quarter, the company handled 21,841 TEUs (Twenty-foot Equivalent Units). Sea Import remained the largest business vertical, contributing 70% of revenue, reflecting a 24.1% YoY growth. Sea Export also saw substantial activity, with its revenue growing by 83.5% YoY and increasing its contribution to 20% from 15% in Q1 FY2026.

Transport revenue for the quarter was Rs. 107 million, and the company began generating revenue from warehousing operations.

The financial performance was impacted by higher operating costs and shifts in the business mix. Profit After Tax (PAT) stood at Rs. 107 million, translating to a PAT Margin of 4.6%. The management stated that the focus remains on improving shipment-level profitability and maintaining cost discipline as the business scales.
