HP Adhesives' board, at its May 13, 2025 meeting, approved audited standalone and consolidated financial results for Q4 and FY ended March 31, 2025, with auditors issuing an unmodified opinion. Consolidated FY25 revenue from operations rose to ₹25,287 lakhs from ₹23,591 lakhs (~7.2% growth), but profit before tax fell to ₹2,373 lakhs from ₹2,812 lakhs (~16% decline) and PAT dropped to ₹1,824 lakhs from ₹2,057 lakhs (~11% decline), with EPS at ₹1.99 vs ₹2.24. Operating cash flow also halved to ₹994 lakhs from ₹2,164 lakhs, indicating pressure on cash conversion despite revenue growth. The board recommended a dividend of ₹0.40 per share (20% on face value of ₹2), subject to shareholder approval.
Revenue growth is positive, but the noticeable drop in profitability, EPS, and operating cash flow may dampen investor sentiment. The 20% dividend signals reasonable shareholder returns, though the earnings decline could limit near-term upside.
