CL Educate held its FY2025 earnings call discussing audited results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2025. The company completed the acquisition of DEX (Digital Examination Services) on February 20, 2025, for Rs. 231.80 crore, funded by Rs. 200 crore of debt at 11.9% interest, with a stated plan to become a zero-debt company within 36 months. Total revenue stood at Rs. 332 crore (FY24: Rs. 368 crore), with adjusted EBITDA at Rs. 24.5 crore, down 14% YoY, partly due to discontinued operations (Engineering, Medical, Bank-SSC, CA) and acquisition-related expenses of Rs. 4.2 crore. The MarTech segment grew 22% to Rs. 149.5 crore but margins were under pressure, while EdTech revenue declined 7% to Rs. 189.5 crore with EBITDA falling 30% to Rs. 15.6 crore on weak MBA test prep. Proforma combined revenue with DEX would be Rs. 544 crore.
Shareholders should note that FY25 results are weighed down by one-time acquisition costs and discontinued operations, while the new DEX acquisition (adding Rs. 199 crore revenue and Rs. 39.4 crore operating EBITDA) is expected to be a major growth driver. The Rs. 200 crore debt at 11.9% interest will increase finance costs in the near term, but the 36-month zero-debt target and synergy plans could support future earnings — though near-term margin pressure remains visible.
