The board of Money Masters Leasing & Finance Ltd approved its audited financial results for the full year ended 31 March 2025. Statutory auditor PSV Jain & Associates issued an unmodified (clean) opinion on the results. Total revenue for FY25 stood at Rs 214.21 lakhs, up modestly from Rs 207.50 lakhs in FY24 (about 3% growth). However, profit before tax fell to Rs 55.19 lakhs from Rs 68.71 lakhs, and profit after tax dropped sharply to Rs 21.19 lakhs from Rs 50.85 lakhs, translating to a steep decline in earnings per share to Rs 0.05 from Rs 0.50. The company mainly lends via asset financing (long-term loans and advances of Rs 2,983 lakhs) funded largely by long-term borrowings of Rs 1,281 lakhs. Operating cash flow remained positive at Rs 56.86 lakhs, though cash balance dipped to Rs 7.78 lakhs from Rs 19.99 lakhs.
Despite a clean audit opinion, the sharp drop in net profit (over 58% lower than last year) on barely growing revenue signals significant margin compression and is a negative signal for shareholders. The stock may react unfavourably given the steep earnings decline, even though the business continues to generate positive operating cash flow.
