The Board of Lakhotia Polyesters approved the audited financial results for Q4 and full year ended March 31, 2025. Revenue from operations jumped to ₹6,046.62 lakhs in FY25 from ₹2,774.81 lakhs in FY24, more than doubling year-on-year. Profit after tax surged to ₹602.06 lakhs (FY24: ₹6.67 lakhs), with Q4 FY25 alone delivering a PAT of ₹397.33 lakhs compared to a loss of ₹21.74 lakhs in Q4 FY24. Basic EPS rose to ₹6.18 from ₹0.12. Total equity improved to ₹1,530.85 lakhs from ₹883.99 lakhs. Statutory auditors M/s Sharp Aarth & Co LLP issued an unmodified (unqualified) opinion on the results.
Strong top-line and bottom-line growth signals a turnaround story, likely positive for the stock in the short term. However, shareholders should note that operating cash flow turned sharply negative at ₹(826.48) lakhs despite the healthy reported profit, and short-term borrowings surged to ₹1,493.26 lakhs from ₹589.70 lakhs, indicating higher working capital dependence on debt.
