Kuantum Papers Limited announced its audited financial results for FY25, with total revenue from operations declining to Rs. 1,10,703.86 lakhs from Rs. 1,21,129.65 lakhs in FY24, a drop of about 8.6%. Profit before tax fell sharply to Rs. 15,537.79 lakhs from Rs. 24,761.06 lakhs, while net profit (PAT) declined to Rs. 11,518.08 lakhs from Rs. 18,382.58 lakhs, a fall of around 37%. Basic EPS stood at Rs. 13.20 versus Rs. 21.07 in the previous year. The board has proposed a dividend of Rs. 3 per equity share (face value Rs. 1), totaling Rs. 2,617.91 lakhs, subject to AGM approval. Statutory auditors O P Bagla & Co LLP issued an unmodified (clean) opinion on the results.
The sharp drop in revenue and profitability signals pricing or volume pressure in the paper business, which may weigh on investor sentiment despite the declared dividend. Shareholders should note the meaningful earnings contraction even as the company maintains a healthy balance sheet with positive operating cash flow.
