Multibase India Faces Profit Decline Amidst Modest Growth and High Dividend Yield

Multibase India, a microcap player in the petrochemicals industry, has recently undergone an evaluation adjustment reflecting its current market dynamics. The company reported flat financial performance for the quarter ending December 2024, with net sales showing a modest annual growth rate of 0.48% over the past five years. Operating profit has seen a more favorable annual growth rate of 6.40% during the same period.
In the latest quarter, Multibase India reported a profit after tax of Rs 2.38 crore, which represents a decline of 36.2% compared to the previous four-quarter average. Additionally, non-operating income constituted a significant portion of profit before tax, accounting for 35.20%. The earnings per share reached a low of Rs 1.89.

Despite these challenges, the company maintains a return on equity of 10.8 and is currently valued at a price-to-book ratio of 2.7, indicating a relatively expensive valuation. However, it is trading at a discount compared to the average historical valuations of its peers. The stock has generated a return of 6.56% over the past year, with profits increasing by 19.5%. Notably, the company offers a high dividend yield of 19.5%, which may attract attention in the current market landscape.
