Heritage Foods reported strong net sales of Rs 1,136.76 crore, a 10.08% year-on-year increase, but faced significant declines in profitability, with Profit Before Tax down 31.21% and Profit After Tax down 30.6%, indicating a concerning trend despite the sales growth.
Heritage Foods has reported its financial results for the quarter ending June 2025, highlighting a complex operational landscape. The company achieved net sales of Rs 1,136.76 crore, marking a notable high for the last five quarters, with a year-on-year growth of 10.08%. However, this sales performance is contrasted by significant declines in profitability metrics.

Profit Before Tax (PBT) fell to Rs 49.68 crore, reflecting a year-on-year decrease of 31.21%, while Profit After Tax (PAT) dropped to Rs 40.55 crore, down 30.6% year-on-year. Both PBT and PAT figures are the lowest recorded in the past five quarters, indicating a concerning trend in profitability.

Operating profit (PBDIT) stood at Rs 73.89 crore, also the lowest in five quarters, resulting in an operating profit margin of 6.50%, which suggests a decline in operational efficiency. Additionally, the dividend payout ratio has reached a five-year low of 12.32%, indicating that Heritage Foods is distributing a smaller proportion of its profits as dividends.

Overall, the company saw an adjustment in its evaluation, reflecting the challenges faced in profitability despite the positive sales growth.
