LT Foods reported mixed performance in the fourth quarter, with strong revenue growth but pressure on profitability and operating margins on a year-on-year basis.
The company posted a consolidated net profit of ₹135.7 crore in Q4, down 15.5% compared to ₹160.5 crore in the corresponding quarter last year. Despite the decline in profit, revenue from operations rose sharply by 30.4% to ₹2,906.7 crore against ₹2,228.4 crore reported in the year-ago period.
LT Foods’ EBITDA for the quarter increased 4.3% year-on-year to ₹269.5 crore, compared to ₹258.3 crore in the same quarter last year. However, EBITDA margin contracted significantly to 9.3% from 11.6% a year ago, indicating pressure on operating efficiency amid rising costs.
