ACE reported strong FY25 results with standalone revenue from operations rising about 14% to Rs. 332,032 lakhs (from Rs. 291,154 lakhs in FY24), and consolidated revenue at Rs. 332,705 lakhs. Standalone profit after tax grew roughly 23% to Rs. 40,364 lakhs, while consolidated PAT rose about 25% to Rs. 40,924 lakhs. Q4 FY25 was also healthy with standalone revenue of Rs. 95,925 lakhs (up ~14.8% YoY) and PAT of Rs. 11,841 lakhs (up ~20.6% YoY). Basic EPS for FY25 stood at Rs. 33.92 (standalone) versus Rs. 27.52 in FY24. The Board has recommended a dividend of Rs. 2.00 per share (100%) for FY25, same as the prior year. The statutory auditors issued an unmodified opinion on the results.
Shareholders stand to benefit from another year of solid double-digit revenue growth, mid-twenties profit growth, and a consistent dividend, supported by a strong, near-debt-free balance sheet with Rs. 92,739 lakhs in investments. The results are likely to be viewed positively by the market given the clean audit opinion and steady expansion in earnings.
