FACT's Board approved audited standalone and consolidated financial results for Q4 and FY ended March 31, 2025, and recommended a final dividend of Rs. 0.20 per equity share (face value Rs. 10) for FY25. Full-year revenue from operations fell to Rs. 4,05,091 lakhs from Rs. 5,05,121 lakhs in FY24, a decline of about 20%. Full-year profit stood at Rs. 4,123 lakhs (EPS Rs. 0.64) versus Rs. 12,827 lakhs (EPS Rs. 1.98) last year, though Q4 FY25 swung to a profit of Rs. 7,072 lakhs from a loss of Rs. 7,910 lakhs in Q4 FY24. The company booked Rs. 2,461 lakhs as exceptional income from a refund of excess RLNG regasification charges. Auditors issued an unmodified opinion, but the joint venture FACT-RCF Building Products Ltd (FRBL) is under CIRP.
The small dividend and a sharp fall in both revenue and full-year profit suggest weak operational performance, which may weigh on sentiment. However, the Q4 turnaround to profit and positive operating cash flow of Rs. 14,000 lakhs provide some comfort, though the FRBL insolvency remains a concern.
