The Board of Craftsman Automation, at its May 7, 2025 meeting, approved audited standalone and consolidated financial results for Q4 and FY ended March 31, 2025. Consolidated FY25 revenue grew about 28% year-on-year to Rs. 5,69,048 lakhs, but profit attributable to owners fell sharply to Rs. 19,457 lakhs from Rs. 30,447 lakhs in FY24, dragging EPS down to Rs. 83.68 from Rs. 144.11. The Board recommended a final dividend of Rs. 5 per share (100% on face value of Rs. 5), subject to shareholder approval at the AGM. The company also approved setting up a CSR Trust. During the year, the firm raised Rs. 1,20,000 lakhs via a QIP at Rs. 4,400 per share, and acquired DR Axion's remaining 24%, Sunbeam Lightweighting Solutions, and two German entities, expanding its footprint.
The Rs. 5 dividend offers a modest payout, but with the stock trading near the Rs. 4,400 QIP price, the yield is negligible. The sharp drop in profits despite strong revenue growth — likely due to acquisition-related costs and exceptional items — is a concern for shareholders and may weigh on the stock near term.
