The Board of Cochin Malabar Estates & Industries approved its audited standalone financial results for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2025. Revenue from operations rose to ₹137.44 lakhs in FY25 from ₹114.01 lakhs in FY24, a growth of about 20.5%. Profit before tax improved to ₹71.84 lakhs (vs ₹49.92 lakhs), but the company booked a deferred tax charge of ₹56.26 lakhs, bringing net profit down to ₹13.86 lakhs (vs ₹49.92 lakhs). The auditor, Singhi & Co., issued an unmodified (clean) opinion but flagged in 'Other Matters' that the company's net worth is fully eroded and current liabilities exceed current assets, raising going-concern uncertainty. Management maintained the going-concern basis citing development of its land assets in Goa and expected future income.
For shareholders, the headline numbers look mixed – revenue grew but profits shrank sharply due to a one-time deferred tax recognition on previously unrecognised losses. The bigger concern is the fully eroded net worth (negative equity of ₹164.47 lakhs) and a sharp jump in short-term borrowings to ₹354 lakhs, which could weigh on the stock despite the clean audit opinion.
