However, when comparing year-over-year performance, there was a 12.6% increase from Q4FY24, during which the total income was ₹571.80 crores. The quarterly decrease could reflect seasonal variations or specific strategic decisions, whereas the annual increase may suggest growth in revenue streams or expanded operations over the year.
Profitability
The company's profitability metrics indicate significant changes over the periods in question. The Profit Before Tax (PBT) for Q4FY25 was ₹0.84 crores, marking a notable decrease of 95.0% from ₹16.82 crores in Q3FY25. Year-over-year, PBT dropped by 93.2% from ₹12.28 crores in Q4FY24. Despite these declines, the Profit After Tax (PAT) for Q4FY25 was ₹2.04 crores, which is an 84.0% decrease from Q3FY25, where it stood at ₹12.73 crores. Compared to Q4FY24, where PAT was notably higher at ₹135.48 crores, there was a 98.5% decrease. The tax credit recorded for Q4FY25, contributing to a PAT, contrasts with the usual tax expense observed in the previous quarter and the same period last year.
Operating Metrics
Sapphire Foods India Ltd maintained its Earnings Per Share (EPS) at ₹0.40 in Q4FY25, consistent with the previous quarter, Q3FY25. However, this figure represents a significant year-over-year decrease of 98.1% from the EPS of ₹21.10 recorded in Q4FY24. The stability in EPS on a quarterly basis suggests consistent share performance in recent months, despite the substantial drop compared to the previous year. Operating metrics such as total expenses showed a reduction of 14.3% from Q3FY25 to Q4FY25, moving from ₹750.23 crores to ₹643.28 crores, while there was a year-over-year increase of 15.0% from Q4FY24. This reduction in expenses on a quarterly basis did not proportionately offset the decline in income, impacting profitability metrics significantly.
