OVERVIEW OF FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND STATE OF COMPANY’S AFFAIRS

Mach Travel Solutions Limited (formerly Mach Conferences and Events Limited) is an integrated travel and
mobility company offering end-to-end solutions across corporate travel, MICE, leisure and holiday travel, B2B
travel services, government and institutional projects, spiritual and inbound tourism, and technology-enabled
travel management solutions. With over two decades of industry experience, the Company has built strong
expertise in managing large-scale travel programmes, conferences, events, and institutional mandates across
domestic and international markets.

During FY26, the Company reported Revenue from Operations of ^230.45 crore, compared to ^235.75 crore
in FY25. Revenue growth was impacted by temporary disruptions in travel activity arising from geopolitical
developments, including the India-Pakistan conflict following Operation Sindoor and the evolving crisis in the
Middle East, which led to the postponement and rescheduling of certain travel programmes and international
movements.

Despite these challenges, the Company maintained strong profitability, with PAT margin improving to 6.5% in
FY26 from 6.0% in FY25. The margin expansion was driven by efficient project execution, disciplined cost
management, and a higher contribution from value-added business segments.

A detailed review of the Company’s performance and financial position is provided in the Management
Discussion & Analysis Report, forming part of the 22nd Annual Report of the company.
