Cyient Reports Q4 Profit Decline, Announces Rs 720 Crore Share Buyback

Cyient reported a 67.7% year-on-year decline in Q4 FY26 net profit to Rs 54.8 crore, impacted by a one-time exceptional charge of Rs 71.2 crore related to a failed acquisition. Despite this, revenue rose slightly to around Rs 1,926-1,954 crore, reflecting business resilience. The company approved a Rs 720 crore share buyback at a 20% premium, marking its first since 2019, while skipping dividends and planning potential fund-raising to support growth. Analysts remain cautious on near-term earnings recovery.
