The quarter-over-quarter (QoQ) growth in total income was 6.9%, while the year-over-year (YoY) growth was 6.6%. This data suggests a steady upward trend in revenue generation over the periods compared, reflecting the company's ability to maintain and slightly increase its income levels in the face of potential market challenges inherent to the media industry.
Profitability
The profitability of Next Mediaworks Ltd, as indicated by its profit before tax and profit after tax, showed a significant decline. The profit before tax was reported at -₹14.48 crores in Q4FY25, compared to -₹6.32 crores in Q3FY25 and -₹6.00 crores in Q4FY24, representing a 129.1% increase in losses QoQ and a 141.3% increase YoY. Similarly, the profit after tax mirrored this trend with a loss of -₹14.48 crores in Q4FY25 versus -₹6.32 crores in Q3FY25 and -₹6.07 crores in Q4FY24. The earnings per share also reflected these losses, maintaining a negative value of -₹1.20 in Q4FY25, doubled from -₹0.60 in the previous quarter and the same quarter last year, resulting in a 100% change both QoQ and YoY. The absence of tax expenses in Q4FY25 and Q3FY25, compared to a nominal tax of ₹0.07 crores in Q4FY24, also highlights a lack of taxable income due to the reported losses.
Operating Metrics

In Q4FY25, total expenses increased to ₹19.09 crores from ₹17.56 crores in Q3FY25 and ₹17.28 crores in Q4FY24. This corresponds to an 8.7% increase QoQ and a 10.5% increase YoY. Such an increase in expenses, alongside the reported revenue growth, indicates a scenario where the company's operating costs have outpaced its income growth. This situation contributed significantly to the company's increased net losses over the periods compared. The data highlights the relevance of operational efficiency and cost management strategies in the company's financial performance, as these factors have direct implications for profitability and shareholder value in the media industry.
