Ken Financial Services, a small non-banking finance company, reported FY25 total income of ₹59.89 lakh, up modestly from ₹58.01 lakh in FY24 (about 3% growth), driven entirely by interest income. Profit before tax was nearly flat at ₹11.36 lakh versus ₹11.46 lakh, while profit after tax rose about 9% to ₹8.37 lakh from ₹7.68 lakh, translating to EPS of ₹0.28 (₹0.26 earlier). However, Q4 standalone PAT dropped sharply to ₹0.73 lakh from ₹1.22 lakh in Q4 FY24, and total comprehensive income for the quarter was negative at -₹3.41 lakh due to mark-to-market losses on investments. The balance sheet shows total assets of ₹972.56 lakh, with borrowings of ₹232.40 lakh against equity of ₹725.47 lakh (debt-to-equity around 0.32x). Operating cash flow remained negative at -₹16.40 lakh (worsened from -₹6.66 lakh), funded by fresh borrowings of ₹16.20 lakh. The statutory auditor (Satya Prakash Natani & Co.) issued an unmodified/unqualified opinion, and the board also appointed a new Secretarial Auditor for FY25.
For retail investors, the results are a mixed bag: full-year profit and EPS nudged higher, but the core lending book continues to generate negative operating cash flow, requiring fresh borrowings to sustain the business. The weak Q4 numbers and negative comprehensive income suggest little near-term earnings momentum for shareholders.
