Zenith Fibres' board approved its audited financial results for Q4 and FY25 (ended March 31, 2025). Revenue from operations jumped to Rs. 5,219.70 lakh from Rs. 3,428.11 lakh in FY24, while net profit for the year rose to Rs. 131.75 lakh versus Rs. 16.94 lakh in the prior comparable period; EPS stood at Rs. 4.57 (FY24: Rs. 3.34). The core Manmade Fibre segment, however, reported a pre-tax loss of Rs. 198.48 lakh (vs. loss of Rs. 106.63 lakh), partly offset by the Wind Mill segment's profit of Rs. 91.85 lakh, which was impacted by a turbine breakdown since September 13, 2024. The board recommended a final dividend of Rs. 1 per share (10%) on 39,44,136 equity shares, subject to shareholder approval at the AGM. Additionally, the board approved a 315 KW rooftop solar project at its Vadodara plant costing up to Rs. 1.25 crore (funded internally) and appointed M/s. Yagnesh Desai & Co. as the new internal auditor for FY26.
Strong top-line growth and higher profits are positives, but continued losses in the core Manmade Fibre segment remain a concern for investors. The 10% dividend is modest and unlikely to be a major price catalyst, while the small solar capex signals incremental cost-saving efforts rather than aggressive expansion.
