Kanchi Karpooram Ltd reported FY 2025-26 standalone revenue of Rs 14,779 lakhs, down 2.5% from Rs 15,150 lakhs in FY 2024-25. Profit after tax (PAT) declined sharply to Rs 516 lakhs from Rs 1,425 lakhs in the prior year, a drop of about 64%. Basic EPS fell to Rs 11.88 from Rs 32.80. The company operates in two segments: camphor (main revenue driver) and real estate. Consolidated results include subsidiary Kanchi Agro Product Private Ltd. Operating cash flow turned negative at Rs 620 lakhs, indicating cash burn. Auditors P. Chandrasekar LLP issued an unmodified (clean) opinion with no qualifications. Cash and cash equivalents declined from Rs 180 lakhs to Rs 86 lakhs during the year.
The sharp 64% decline in PAT and negative operating cash flow are concerning for shareholders. Despite stable revenue, profit margins compressed significantly, possibly due to input price fluctuations mentioned in the notes. The clean audit opinion provides some comfort about financial reporting integrity.
