Route Mobile's board approved audited consolidated financial results for Q4 and FY25, with revenue from operations rising ~13.7% year-on-year to ₹4,575.62 crores against ₹4,023.29 crores last year. Profit after tax fell ~14.1% to ₹333.93 crores, weighed down by higher finance costs (₹40.91 cr vs ₹27.25 cr) and a jump in tax expense, partly offset by a net exceptional gain of ₹18.45 crores. Operating cash flow swung sharply positive to ₹602.48 crores from a negative ₹97.59 crores in FY24. The board recommended a final dividend of ₹2 per share, taking the total FY25 dividend to ₹11 per share. Statutory auditor Walker Chandiok & Co LLP issued an unmodified opinion, but included an Emphasis of Matter on a subsidiary's vendor dispute involving an unrecovered advance of ~₹113 crores and ongoing arbitration where the vendor has filed a counter claim.
Revenue growth and a strong turnaround in operating cash flow are positives, but the ~14% drop in annual profit and the auditor's emphasis on the vendor arbitration risk may weigh on near-term sentiment. The ₹11 total dividend signals healthy shareholder returns, while the Promoter (Proximus Opal) shareholding reduction to 74.90% addresses minimum public shareholding norms.
