Elecon Engineering Company Ltd. reported a sharp year-on-year decline in its consolidated net profit for the first quarter, even as revenue grew modestly. The company's consolidated net profit fell 60% to Rs 70.4 crore in Q1, compared with Rs 175 crore in the corresponding quarter last year.
The revenue from operations rose 6% year-on-year to Rs 521 crore, against Rs 491 crore in the year-ago period. At the operating level, Ebitda declined 16.3% to Rs 109 crore, compared with Rs 130 crore last year. The company's Ebitda margin contracted to 21%, from 26.6% in the same quarter a year earlier.
The margin contraction came as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation declined at a faster pace than revenue growth.
Separately, Elecon Engineering said its Board of Directors had recommended a final dividend of Rs 1.50 per equity share, or 150%, on shares with a face value of Re 1 each.
