UBL Leak: Financial Results Accidentally Disclosed

New Delhi, May 7 (PTI) United Breweries Ltd (UBL) on Thursday said it suspects one of its employees has accidentally leaked the company's draft annual results to an outsider.

The draft annual financial results were shared with one individual, a few hours ahead of its scheduled release, according to a voluntary disclosure by the company, controlled by Dutch multinational brewing company Heineken NV.


"On May 5, 2026, an employee of the company appears to have inadvertently disclosed, for legitimate reasons, unpublished price-sensitive information of the company, without the necessary safeguards, to one outside individual," it said.

The annual financial results of the company, as approved by its board, were duly disclosed to the stock exchanges on the same day within a few hours of such inadvertent disclosure, and therefore, no further action is required in accordance with the SEBI (Prohibition of Insider Trading) Regulations, 2015.

On May 5, UBL had reported a 4.2 per cent increase in its consolidated net profit to Rs 101.87 crore in the March quarter of FY26. Its revenue from operations was marginally down to Rs 4,408.41 crore.
