Forbes Precision Tools has reported its first full-year audited results as a listed entity. For FY25, total income stood at Rs. 23,704 lakhs versus Rs. 22,956 lakhs in FY24, a modest growth of about 3.3%. Profit after tax for the year was Rs. 2,875 lakhs compared to Rs. 2,971 lakhs in FY24, a slight decline of around 3%. In Q4 FY25 alone, total income was Rs. 6,758 lakhs with PAT of Rs. 912 lakhs, down from Rs. 1,080 lakhs in Q4 FY24. The Board has declared an interim dividend of Rs. 5 per share (50% on face value of Rs. 10) for FY26, with May 2, 2025 set as the record date. Statutory auditors Sharp & Tannan Associates issued an unmodified (clean) opinion on the results, and no audit qualifications or emphasis matters were flagged.
Modest revenue growth coupled with a slight dip in annual profitability may not generate a strong positive reaction, but the clean audit opinion and a 50% interim dividend should reassure investors. Comparatives for FY24 were restated to reflect the demerger of the Precision Tools business from Forbes & Company, so year-on-year EPS comparisons are not strictly meaningful.
