Ecoboard Industries reported deeply negative audited results for FY25 at its board meeting on 15 May 2025. Total income collapsed to Rs. 1,373.35 lakh from Rs. 2,992.68 lakh in FY24, a decline of roughly 54%, while revenue from operations fell to Rs. 1,271.78 lakh from Rs. 2,975.59 lakh. The company posted a net loss of around Rs. 1,828 lakh versus a Rs. 726 lakh loss a year earlier, with EPS worsening to Rs. (10.25) from Rs. (4.07). The other equity turned sharply negative at Rs. (2,288.37) lakh, taking total equity into negative territory at Rs. (505.17) lakh, and operating cash flow was negative at Rs. (122.25) lakh. The statutory auditor issued an unmodified opinion but added an Emphasis of Matter on pending excise (Rs. 1,114.64 lakh) and income tax (Rs. 510.44 lakh + Rs. 179.45 lakh) disputes, with no provision made pending appeals. The board also approved exceptional-item losses of Rs. 855.75 lakh tied to the disposal of old particle-board stock and re-appointed the secretarial and internal auditors for FY26.
Shareholders should view this as a significantly negative update — the company has slipped into negative net worth, losses have more than doubled, and large tax disputes remain open, raising concerns about financial sustainability. However, equity infusion via warrants and preferential shares (~Rs. 33 crore) and ICD support from an associate may help fund new production lines expected by June 2025.
