The Board of Directors of Alkali Metals Limited, held on May 19, 2025, approved the audited financial results for Q4 and FY ended March 31, 2025, and recommended a final equity dividend of Rs 0.50 per share (face value Rs 10). For FY25, revenue from operations stood at Rs 8,233 lakhs, slightly lower than Rs 8,285.59 lakhs in FY24, while the company reported a net loss of Rs 579.98 lakhs for the year, compared to a net profit of Rs 112.89 lakhs in the previous year. However, Q4 FY25 saw a turnaround with a net profit of Rs 435.47 lakhs, against a loss in the preceding quarter. Export revenue rose to Rs 5,088.61 lakhs from Rs 4,540.13 lakhs, while domestic revenue declined. The board also appointed CS B. Venkatesh Babu as Secretarial Auditor for 5 years and M/s. Ramakrishna & Associates as Internal Auditor for FY 2025-26. The statutory auditor issued an unmodified opinion on the financial statements.
The dividend of Rs 0.50 per share offers modest returns to shareholders, but the full-year net loss raises concerns about the company's overall profitability. The strong Q4 rebound and growing export business may support sentiment, while the loss for the year could limit upside in the near term.
