This data indicates a modest increase in revenue over the year, with a more pronounced quarter-over-quarter improvement, suggesting growth in sales performance within the short term.
Profitability
The profitability metrics for Spencers Retail Ltd indicate challenges in achieving positive earnings. The profit before tax (PBT) in Q4FY25 was a negative ₹80.78 crores, reflecting an increase in losses from the previous quarter's PBT of negative ₹47.40 crores. This marks a quarter-over-quarter increase in losses by 70.4%. On a year-over-year basis, the losses increased by 31.7% from Q4FY24's negative PBT of ₹61.33 crores. The profit after tax (PAT) for Q4FY25 was also negative, at ₹80.69 crores, with similar trends observed in QoQ and YoY changes, suggesting significant challenges in maintaining profitability. Earnings per share (EPS) decreased to negative ₹9.00 from negative ₹5.30 in the previous quarter and negative ₹6.80 in the same quarter last year, reflecting the increased losses per share.
Operating Metrics
Analyzing the operating metrics, Spencers Retail Ltd reported total expenses of ₹631.92 crores in Q4FY25. This figure represents an 11.4% increase from Q3FY25’s total expenses of ₹567.45 crores and a 3.5% increase from Q4FY24's expenses of ₹610.78 crores. The consistent increase in expenses over both quarters and the year may indicate rising operational costs. The tax expenses remain minimal, with a slight increase from the previous quarter but a decrease from the same quarter last year. The negative financial performance, as reflected in the increased expenses and losses, is a critical area for the company to address.
