Pee Cee Cosma Sope, a maker of laundry soaps and detergents, reported FY25 standalone revenue from operations of Rs. 14,059.23 lacs vs Rs. 13,364.31 lacs in FY24, a modest growth of about 5%. Consolidated revenue rose to Rs. 14,433.99 lacs from Rs. 13,364.31 lacs, helped by the acquisition of Suraj Bhan Agencies Limited (consolidated from 28 Feb 2025). Standalone profit after tax stood at Rs. 960.98 lacs (FY24: Rs. 1,044.37 lacs), while consolidated PAT was Rs. 963.77 lacs (FY24: Rs. 1,044.37 lacs), marking a slight year-on-year decline. Basic EPS for the year was Rs. 36.30 (standalone) vs Rs. 39.50 last year. Operating cash flow remained healthy at Rs. 731.22 lacs (standalone) and Rs. 755.37 lacs (consolidated). The Board has recommended a 30% final dividend (Rs. 3 per share of Rs. 10 face value). Auditor Doogar & Associates issued an unmodified opinion on both standalone and consolidated results.
Revenue inched up and the company remains profitable with a healthy balance sheet and dividend payout, but a dip in profit compared to last year and softer operating margins may weigh on the stock. Shareholders should note that the new subsidiary is included only from late February, so consolidated numbers are not fully comparable with the prior year.
