Finolex Cables reported FY25 revenue of ₹5,319 crore, up 6% year-on-year, driven mainly by electrical wires and cables. Profit after tax stood at ₹544.4 crore, with the Chairman noting margin pressure from copper price volatility and fibre price erosion, though margins improved sequentially in the second half as pricing stabilised. EBITDA remained strong at ₹761.8 crore, and the Board recommended a dividend of ₹8 per share (400% of face value). The company invested ₹236 crore in FY25 as part of a larger ₹500 crore capex programme, including commissioning a new E-Beam facility in Urse, doubling auto cable capacity at Roorkee, and expanding optic fibre drawing capacity from 4M to 6M fibre km/year. Management expressed optimism on revival in construction demand and growth from 5G, FTTH, and BharatNet initiatives.
Shareholders get a strong ₹8/share dividend and visibility on margin recovery in H2, while new E-Beam and optic fibre capacity position the company for growth in solar, EV, and 5G-related cables. The capex pipeline and margin improvement narrative are positive signals for future earnings, though copper and fibre price volatility remain near-term watchpoints.
