Poonawalla Fincorp's Q1 FY25 Results Show Strong Growth, But Concerns Linger

Poonawalla Fincorp, a leading non-banking financial company (NBFC) in the finance industry, has recently announced its financial results for the quarter ending June 2024. The company’s stock has been given a ‘Sell’ call by MarketsMOJO.

Despite the overall positive performance of the quarter, Poonawalla Fin’s score has fallen from 25 to 15 in the last three months. However, there are several factors that are working in the company’s favor. The Profit After Tax (PAT) for the half-yearly period has shown a significant growth of 59.61% year on year, indicating a strong financial performance. The net sales for the quarter have also been the highest in the last five quarters, with a positive trend in the near term. Additionally, the operating profit has also shown a consistent growth in the last five quarters.

However, there are some areas of concern for Poonawalla Fin based on the June 2024 financials. The company’s operating cash flow has been consistently falling over the last three years, with the lowest being recorded at Rs -7,556.49 Cr. This indicates a decline in cash revenues from business operations. Furthermore, the non-operating income has shown a significant increase in the last five quarters, which may not be sustainable in the long run.

Overall, Poonawalla Fincorp’s financial performance for the quarter ending June 2024 has been positive, with some areas of improvement and concern. Investors should carefully analyze the company’s financials before making any investment decisions.
