Kaynes Technology's June quarter profit fell 24% year-on-year, missing estimates by 7% due to lower other income and higher taxes. Net working capital surged from Rs 2,000 crore to Rs 2,400 crore quarter-on-quarter,or 163 days from 125 days, while net debt jumped from Rs 200 crore to Rs 800 crore. Nuvama cut its FY27 and FY28 earnings estimates, rating the stock 'Reduce' with a fresh target of Rs 3,450. MOFSL retained a 'Buy' rating and the Street-high target of Rs 5,000, citing a robust order book of Rs 8,900 crore and scaling in EMS and new businesses. Global brokerages were split: Jefferies gave 'Buy' at Rs 4,480, Nomura and JPMorgan said 'Neutral' at Rs 4,094 and Rs 3,600, and CLSA said 'Hold' at Rs 3,580.
