Metro Brands' board on May 22, 2025 approved audited financial results for Q4 and FY25. Standalone revenue from operations grew 6.3% to Rs. 2,449.61 crore (vs Rs. 2,305.00 crore in FY24), while consolidated revenue rose 6.4% to Rs. 2,507.39 crore. Despite revenue growth, standalone profit after tax fell about 16% to Rs. 349.59 crore (vs Rs. 417.81 crore) and consolidated PAT declined to Rs. 354.46 crore (vs Rs. 415.47 crore), largely due to higher depreciation, higher finance costs, and a one-time tax adjustment of about Rs. 25 crore related to reconciliation of FILA business tax balances. The board recommended a final dividend of Rs. 2.50 per share, taking total FY25 dividends (including interim Rs. 3.00 and special Rs. 14.50) to Rs. 20 per share, aggregating Rs. 476.35 crore. Auditors SRBC & Co LLP issued a clean, unqualified opinion with no modifications.
Mixed signals for shareholders — steady revenue growth and a hefty Rs. 476 crore dividend payout are positives, but the notable fall in net profit despite higher sales and the one-time tax hit may temper near-term sentiment. The company remains debt-free with strong operating cash flows (Rs. 687 crore standalone), supporting the generous dividend.
