Solitaire Machine Tools Ltd reported standalone audited results for FY25 with revenue from operations rising to Rs. 2,250.17 lakhs from Rs. 2,086.80 lakhs in FY24, a growth of about 7.8%. Total income grew to Rs. 2,315.77 lakhs. Profit before tax jumped to Rs. 314.22 lakhs (FY24: Rs. 245.85 lakhs), an increase of nearly 28%, while profit after tax rose to roughly Rs. 251.75 lakhs from Rs. 180.43 lakhs, a jump of about 40%, helped by contained finance costs and higher other income. Basic EPS improved to Rs. 5.16 from Rs. 3.97. The Board has recommended a 20% dividend (Rs. 2 per share on Rs. 10 face value). Operating cash flow remained positive at Rs. 222.52 lakhs, though the company stepped up capex (Rs. 501.82 lakhs) and took on additional borrowings.
Strong profit growth, higher dividend, and margin expansion are positive for shareholders, though the sharp rise in borrowings (non-current borrowings roughly 2.5x year-on-year) to fund capex is worth watching for leverage.
