LMW Limited's Board meeting on May 20, 2026 approved multiple items including a final dividend of Rs. 35 per equity share (350% on face value of Rs. 10) for FY2026, subject to shareholder approval at the AGM on July 24, 2026. The record date for dividend eligibility is July 17, 2026. For FY2026, standalone revenue from operations grew 5.9% to Rs. 3,081.84 crore, though standalone net profit declined 35.4% to Rs. 153.92 crore (previous year included exceptional gain of Rs. 131.61 crore from subsidiary sales). Consolidated net profit was Rs. 130.73 crore. Other key items include change in statutory auditors from S Krishnamoorthy & Co to Brahmayya & Co, re-appointment of Managing Director Sanjay Jayavarthanavelu for 5 years from April 2027, and additional investment in LMW Holding Limited, UAE.
The dividend payout ratio stands at approximately 24% of standalone EPS of Rs. 144.08, indicating a conservative dividend policy with room for future increases. Net profit decline versus previous year is primarily due to exceptional items and not operational weakness. The company maintains strong cash reserves of Rs. 136.74 crore. Dividend recommendation is positive for income-seeking investors.
