Sahara Maritime Limited reported audited full-year results for FY25 with revenue from operations nearly doubling to ₹2,524.08 lakhs, up from ₹1,342.62 lakhs in FY24 (~88% growth). However, profit after tax fell sharply to ₹23.59 lakhs from ₹77.98 lakhs, a drop of roughly 70%, as total expenses (especially other expenses of ₹2,353.38 lakhs) grew much faster than revenue. Basic EPS declined to ₹0.77 from ₹3.51, and the second-half segment alone posted a loss-equivalent dip with PAT of ₹57.42 lakhs vs ₹70.91 lakhs in H2 FY24. The statutory auditor A Y & Company issued an unmodified (clean) opinion, and the company operates in a single segment — Clearing & Forwarding Services. Notably, cash and equivalents plunged from ₹471.04 lakhs to ₹85.68 lakhs, with operating cash flow turning deeply negative at ₹-300.38 lakhs, signalling cash strain despite strong topline growth.
The sharp revenue growth is undermined by steep PAT erosion and deeply negative operating cash flow, indicating cost pressure or working capital strain. Near-term sentiment may remain weak until margins and cash generation improve.
