Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Hilton Metal Forging reported FY25 audited results with a clean (unmodified) opinion from statutory auditors M/s. Anil Bansal & Associates. Revenue from operations grew about 18% year-on-year to Rs 16,304.73 lacs (from Rs 13,807.11 lacs), while total income rose over 20% to Rs 16,822.35 lacs. However, profit after tax actually fell roughly 7.6% to Rs 617.63 lacs (from Rs 668.58 lacs), and EPS dropped to Rs 2.78 from Rs 3.18. EBITDA margins compressed meaningfully (from around 12% to under 9.5%) as raw material costs and finance charges both rose faster than revenue. Operating cash flow also collapsed to about Rs 273 lacs from Rs 1,011 lacs in the prior year, even as other income jumped to Rs 517.63 lacs largely on a one-time Rs 353 lacs gain from sale of an investment property. The Board also noted a fine and reminder letter from BSE and NSE for a past board-composition issue under SEBI's Listing Regulations, which the company says is now resolved after a director's resignation in October 2024.
Mixed bag for shareholders: top-line growth is healthy, but profitability, margins, and cash generation weakened despite a one-time property-sale boost to other income, suggesting pressure on the core forging business. The clean audit and restored exchange compliance are positives, but the margin compression and sharply lower operating cash flow are points to watch for the stock.
