Yasho Industries, a specialty and performance chemicals maker, shared its Q4 and FY25 results via an investor presentation. Q4FY25 revenue grew ~8% YoY to Rs 185.5 crores with EBITDA up 13% to Rs 35.6 crores and EBITDA margin expanding to 19.2% from 18.3%; gross margin improved sharply to 43.1% from 36.9%. However, Q4 profit after tax collapsed to Rs 5 crores (from Rs 18 crores) and full-year PAT fell to Rs 6.1 crores from Rs 58 crores, dragged by a big jump in depreciation (Rs 50 cr vs Rs 15.6 cr) and finance costs (Rs 59 cr vs Rs 15 cr) linked to the new Pakhajan facility. Management guided that the Pakhajan plant ran at ~50% utilisation in March 2025, expected to scale to ~70% in FY26, supporting a 40-50% revenue growth target. A new US warehouse became operational in March 2025 to boost US market servicing. Key balance sheet concerns include net debt/equity rising to 1.33x, ROCE falling to 1.5%, and operating cash flow turning negative at Rs -41.7 crores.
The sharp improvement in gross and EBITDA margins, along with the 40-50% FY26 revenue growth guidance, is positive for the stock narrative. However, the steep PAT decline, surging debt servicing costs, weak ROCE, and negative operating cash flow signal that the heavy capex phase is still pressuring earnings, so shareholders should weigh the growth story against near-term profitability stress.
