Cil Securities Reports Mixed Performance in Q3, Positive Trends in Operating Profit and EPS

Cil Securities, a microcap finance company, has recently announced its financial results for the quarter ended December 2023. The company's stock has been given a 'Sell' call by MarketsMOJO.

According to the financials, Cil Securities has shown a flat performance in the quarter, with a score of 3, which is an improvement from the previous quarter's score of -1. The company's operating profit (PBDIT) for the quarter was the highest in the last five quarters, at Rs 1.28 crore. The near-term trend for operating profit is positive. Similarly, the profit before tax (PBT) and profit after tax (PAT) for the quarter were also the highest in the last five quarters, at Rs 1.17 crore and Rs 0.87 crore respectively. The near-term trend for both PBT and PAT is positive. The earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter were also the highest in the last five quarters, at Rs 1.74. This indicates that the company has been able to generate higher earnings for its shareholders.

However, the company's cash and cash equivalents for the half-yearly period were the lowest in the last six periods, at Rs 8.64 crore. This shows a deteriorating short-term liquidity for the company.

Overall, Cil Securities has shown a mixed performance in the quarter, with positive trends in operating profit, PBT, PAT, and EPS, but a negative trend in cash and cash equivalents. Investors should carefully consider these factors before making any investment decisions.
