Three changes stood out: foreign funds (FIIs) cut their stake for 7 quarters in a row, profit fell in the September 2026 quarter and revenue fell in the September 2026 quarter. 1. Foreign funds (FIIs) cut their stake for 7 quarters in a row From 14.1% to 11.8% of the company by the September 2026 quarter. 2. Profit fell in the September 2026 quarter Profit was ₹69 crore, -25.8% on a year earlier (₹93 crore), after 2 quarters of growth. Why: Profit fell because newsprint costs rose sharply, with average cost up from Rs 47,000 to nearly Rs 57,000 a ton. Next results: check whether newsprint prices ease 2%-3% versus Q2, as management expects. From the earnings call on 16 Oct 2026. 3. Revenue fell in the September 2026 quarter Revenue was ₹581 crore, -5.4% on a year earlier (₹614 crore), after 2 quarters of growth. Why: Revenue fell because advertising money moved out of the quarter, with a Navratri timing shift pushing nearly Rs 40 crore of activity into Q3. Next results: check whether that shifted ad money comes back in Q3 and whether festive advertising meets the full-year ambition. From the earnings call on 16 Oct 2026. ## What dividend does D B Corp pay?

## What to watch in D B Corp's next results? When D B Corp reports October to December 2026, these are the 4 checks that show whether the story is still on course. First: Check Q3 festive advertising recapture and delivery against the full-year advertising ambition. - What to check (from the call)

## Is D B Corp profitable? D B Corp Ltd earned ₹69.0 Cr of net profit in the Sep 2026 quarter, −25.8% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹332 Cr. Over 10 years profit has grown 1.3% a year on average. That is 11.9% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹93.0 Cr. For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹332 Cr (−10.5% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed −5.4% on a year earlier and the margin moved −6.0 percentage points. Sales did the work while the margin got thinner. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −0.1% and revenue +0.5%. Profit and revenue are moving at about the same pace. ## How much revenue does D B Corp make, and is it growing? D B Corp Ltd reported ₹581 Cr of revenue in the Sep 2026 quarter, −5.4% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 10 years it has grown 1.4% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹2,356 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹2,366 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹2,356 Cr, +0.7% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +0.5% on average, against 1.4% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing at about the same pace as its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +0.1%, against −0.9% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew −4.7%, against −14.4% a year (accelerating). ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does D B Corp keep? D B Corp Ltd's operating margin was 16.0% in the Sep 2026 quarter, 6.0 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 years it has been between 15.0% and 29.0%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −6.8 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −5.4 points. So the drop came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is D B Corp's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 120% of D B Corp Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ₹365 Cr of operating cash against ₹332 Cr of profit. After ₹200 Cr of spending on assets, ₹165 Cr was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why 120% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle got 74 days shorter between FY21 and FY26, so cash that used to wait in the business now arrives sooner. What to look at next: no single use of cash stands out. The next section checks both the cash tied up in daily operations and the spending on assets. ## Where does D B Corp's cash go? D B Corp Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 90 days in FY26, down from 164 days in FY21. It spent ₹351 Cr on assets over the last 3 years. Customers take 72 days to pay, and stock sits for 121 days on average. At FY26 sales of ₹2,356 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹6.5 Cr, so roughly ₹581 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. FY26: customers took 72 days to pay and stock sat for 121 days, about 4.0 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 90 days, shorter than FY21's 164. The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 121 days. Customers pay about 72 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 103 days. Together that makes the 90-day cycle. Spending on assets: ₹351 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹318 Cr of depreciation (the yearly wear and tear on existing assets). So it is building a little beyond replacing what wears out. Work still in progress is ₹10.0 Cr (FY26): assets paid for that are not earning yet. In short: neither the daily cycle nor new spending is soaking up the cash, so the picture is fairly clean. ## What is D B Corp's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? D B Corp Ltd's P/E is 8.1×, near the low end of its own history: it has been lower only 6% of the time. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 12.7×, over 11 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved −10.5% while the price moved −44.7%. Earnings did better than the price, which pulled the multiple down within its own range. Where the price move came from: over 5 years the price moved +8.0% a year; about +11.9% a year came from earnings growth and about −3.9 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying less); over 10 years the price moved −9.0% a year; about −0.7% a year came from earnings growth and about −8.3 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying less). The split is approximate (price return minus earnings growth). It shows how much of the move came from the market paying a different multiple. In short: the multiple is low against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the D B Corp business getting better or worse? D B Corp Ltd's business is turning around. Profit growth has swung from −27.1% at its low to −4.7%, rising from a low 4 quarters ago, with ROCE steady at 17.1%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: a turn in growth is often where a bigger change starts. The lines say a turn is forming, so the question is whether the next quarters confirm it. ## How much does D B Corp earn on its capital? D B Corp Ltd earned a ROCE of 18% in FY26. That is up from a low of 10% in FY21. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 4.9 percentage points above its cost of capital, so growth here adds value, not just size. It comes from a 14.1% net margin and 0.74× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 14.1% net margin × 0.74× asset turnover × 1.32× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 13.8% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 16.9% − 12.0% = +4.9 percentage points. The 12.0% is a standard assumption for the cost of capital in India, not an estimate for this company. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Positive but thin: it creates value with little room for error. The 16.9% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY26 at 18.8%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does D B Corp have too much debt? D B Corp Ltd has total debt of ₹225 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹2,508 Cr as of Sep 2026, so its debt is 0.09× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.11 in FY22 to 0.11 in FY26. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the D B Corp shareholding pattern? Promoters raised their stake in D B Corp Ltd by 2.1 percentage points over 8 quarters, the biggest change among its owners. Promoters now own 74.5% of the company. Foreign institutions moved −2.1 points over the same period, to 11.8%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings. Over the last two years: Promoters: +2.1 points over 8 quarters, to 74.5%; Foreign institutions: −2.1 points over 8 quarters, to 11.8%; Domestic institutions: −0.8 points over 8 quarters, to 4.0%. Why the owners changed: promoters drove it (+2.1 points), with the other side taken by foreign institutions (−2.1 points). They raised their stake step by step. ## How far is D B Corp from balance-sheet trouble? For D B Corp Ltd, the Z-score is not available, so we say so rather than guess one. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections show the balance-sheet figures we do have, each with its own date. ## How does D B Corp rank in its industry? 41.8 out of 100, rank 3 of 3 in Newspaper, with 82% of the evidence available. D B Corp Ltd scores 41.8 out of 100 against the 3 companies it is compared with in Newspaper, ranking 3. The valuation scores well, but earnings are not improving yet, so the business does not back up the low multiple so far. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 3.5 + 17.8 + 13 + 7.5 = 41.8. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is D B Corp compared with? D B Corp ranks 3 of 3 Newspaper companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 41.8 out of 100. 1.

Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led NIFTY 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led NIFTY 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.
