Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) announced its audited financial results for Q4 and full year FY25. Standalone revenue from operations grew 17.3% to Rs 23,65,801 lakhs (vs Rs 20,16,939 lakhs in FY24), while profit after tax jumped 33.5% to Rs 5,28,825 lakhs (vs Rs 3,96,236 lakhs). Standalone EPS rose to Rs 7.23 from Rs 5.50. Consolidated revenue grew to Rs 23,76,875 lakhs and PAT climbed to Rs 5,32,268 lakhs, with consolidated EPS at Rs 7.28. The Board recommended a final dividend of Rs 0.90 per share (90% on face value of Rs 1), taking total FY25 dividend to Rs 2.40 per share including the Rs 1.50 interim paid in March 2025. Operating cash flow remained positive at Rs 48,041 lakhs, though sharply lower than Rs 4,64,801 lakhs in FY24, mainly due to higher working capital outflows. The statutory auditor issued an unmodified (clean) opinion on both standalone and consolidated results.
Strong earnings growth (PAT up ~33%) and a total dividend of Rs 2.40 per share are positive for shareholders. Lower operating cash flow and ongoing vacancies of Independent Directors (9 unfilled positions due to pending Government of India appointments) are minor watchpoints but not material concerns.
