Lakshmi Electrical Control Systems reported a sharp decline in FY25 performance. Revenue from operations fell to ₹21,231 lakhs from ₹33,796 lakhs in FY24, a drop of about 37%. Profit after tax dropped to ₹347 lakhs from ₹1,396 lakhs (down ~75%), with EPS falling to ₹14.12 from ₹56.79. The Electricals segment was the worst hit, with revenue falling from ₹29,828 lakhs to ₹18,614 lakhs and segment profit collapsing from ₹1,293 lakhs to ₹397 lakhs. The Plastics segment also slipped into a loss of ₹95 lakhs versus a profit of ₹202 lakhs last year. The company booked an exceptional item of ₹44 lakhs as VRS compensation. Despite weak earnings, operating cash flow stayed positive at ₹541 lakhs, the company has virtually no debt, and the board has recommended a 40% dividend of ₹4 per share. Statutory auditors Subbachar & Srinivasan issued an unmodified opinion.
Sharp revenue and profit decline signals major business stress, especially in the core Electricals segment, and is likely to weigh negatively on the stock in the near term. However, debt-free status, positive operating cash flow, and continued dividend provide some comfort to shareholders.
