Lerthai Finance, an investment company, reported zero revenue from operations for FY25 as it operates only in the investment segment. Other income fell sharply to Rs 46.93 lakhs from Rs 162.29 lakhs in FY24, a drop of about 71%, mainly due to lower fair value gains on its AIF investments. Total expenses remained largely flat at Rs 62.02 lakhs (vs Rs 65.37 lakhs), causing the company to swing from a profit after tax of Rs 75.94 lakhs in FY24 to a loss of Rs 1.88 lakhs in FY25. Basic EPS turned negative at Rs (0.27) compared to Rs 10.85 in the previous year. The balance sheet remains strong with total equity of Rs 1,012.26 lakhs, investments of Rs 317.41 lakhs, and cash plus bank balances of Rs 724.13 lakhs, with virtually no debt. Statutory auditor B.D. Jokhakar & Co. issued an unqualified (unmodified) opinion.
The FY25 results show a clear deterioration driven by lower investment income, turning the company marginally loss-making; however, shareholders need not be alarmed as the company is debt-free, well-capitalized, and received a clean audit opinion, so the long-term financial position remains intact.
