Audited Results for the quarter and year ended 31st March 2025 of Sun TV Network Limited
Awaiting price reaction for this filing.
Sun TV Network reported a decline in both revenue and profit for FY25. Standalone revenue from operations fell to Rs 3,878.86 crore from Rs 4,148.36 crore in FY24, a drop of about 6.5%. Standalone Profit After Tax declined to Rs 1,654.46 crore from Rs 1,875.15 crore, down roughly 11.8%, with EPS at Rs 41.98 vs Rs 47.58. On a consolidated basis, revenue fell to Rs 4,015.09 crore and PAT to Rs 1,703.64 crore. The company booked an exceptional loss of Rs 73.52 crore (standalone) on impairment of its investment in the South Asia FM joint venture. Operating cash flow remained healthy at Rs 1,624.77 crore (standalone), though lower than the previous year. Total dividends of Rs 15 per share were paid during the year.
Shareholders see a modest decline in top line and a double-digit fall in earnings, partly weighed down by a one-time impairment. However, the company remains debt-free with strong cash generation and continued dividend payouts, which should support the stock despite weaker headline numbers.
