Prataap Snacks Limited (brands Yellow Diamond and Avadh) reported FY25 income from operations of Rs. 17,077 million, up 6% year-on-year, and Q4 FY25 revenue of Rs. 4,006 million, up 3% YoY. However, the company posted a loss after tax of Rs. 140 million for FY25 and Rs. 119 million for Q4 FY25, with the FY25 loss including a post-tax exceptional loss of Rs. 202 million. Operating EBITDA stood at Rs. 487 million for FY25 and just Rs. 49 million for Q4, reflecting sharp margin compression from inflationary input costs (palm oil, potatoes) and weak consumption demand in the value segment. The Board has recommended a dividend of 10% (Rs. 0.50 per share on Rs. 5 face value). Management highlighted lost sales from a fire at the Jammu facility, but noted positive cash profit, improved working capital, and a robust balance sheet.
Despite modest revenue growth, shareholders face a second consecutive year of losses with significant margin pressure, though the 10% dividend signals cash-flow confidence. Near-term stock sentiment may remain weak given profitability concerns, but the company's strong cash position and strategic focus on cost optimization could support a gradual recovery.
