Best Eastern Hotels Ltd's board, meeting on May 21, 2025, approved audited standalone financial results for Q4 and FY2024-25, along with a dividend of Rs.1 per share on its 10% Cumulative Non-Convertible Redeemable Preference Shares (face value Rs.10). Statutory auditor GMJ & Co issued an unmodified (clean) opinion on the results. For FY2024-25, revenue from operations rose marginally to Rs.624.55 lakhs (vs Rs.613.90 lakhs prior year), but profit before tax collapsed to just Rs.0.34 lakhs (vs Rs.22.17 lakhs), and the company slipped into a net loss of Rs.0.69 lakhs (vs a profit of Rs.14.05 lakhs). Operating cash flow remained positive at Rs.66.73 lakhs. Q4 revenue stood at Rs.133.25 lakhs, down from Rs.142.84 lakhs in Q4 of the previous year.
Marginal top-line growth was wiped out by a sharp cost surge (employee, finance, and other expenses), driving the company into a small net loss for the year. Shareholders should note weak profitability and EBITDA margin compression despite stable operations, though the clean audit opinion and positive operating cash flow provide some comfort. The declared dividend is only on preference shares, not equity shares.
