Financial metrics for AG Ventures reveal challenges in profitability and growth. The company’s average Return on Equity (ROE) stands at 6.93%, indicating modest returns on shareholders’ funds. Over the past five years, net sales have declined at an annual rate of 19.70%, while operating profit has contracted by 37.29% annually. These figures suggest subdued long-term growth trends within the company.
Recent financial results further illustrate the pressures faced by AG Ventures. The operating cash flow for the latest fiscal year was recorded at Rs.8.09 crores, the lowest in recent periods. Profit After Tax (PAT) for the latest six months stood at Rs.3.37 crores, reflecting a contraction of 27.75%. Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR) for the year was at 0.00%, indicating no dividends were distributed to shareholders during this period.
Valuation metrics also highlight the stock’s premium positioning relative to its fundamentals. With a Price to Book Value ratio of 0.5 and a ROE of 2.3 in the latest period, AG Ventures is trading at a valuation considered expensive compared to its peers’ historical averages. This valuation comes despite the company’s profits declining by 53.6% over the past year.
AG Ventures has consistently underperformed against benchmark indices. Over the last three years, the stock has delivered negative returns annually, including a -41.32% return in the most recent year, underperforming the BSE500 index in each of these periods. This trend underscores the stock’s relative weakness within the broader market context.

Despite the challenges, AG Ventures maintains a low average Debt to Equity ratio of 0.03 times, reflecting limited leverage on its balance sheet. The company’s majority shareholding remains with promoters, indicating concentrated ownership.
In summary, AG Ventures’ recent fall to a 52-week low of Rs.134 is the culmination of a sustained period of underperformance, subdued profitability, and valuation pressures. The stock’s trajectory contrasts with broader market indices, which continue to exhibit relative strength. Investors analysing AG Ventures should consider these factual data points within the context of the Commodity Chemicals sector and the company’s financial profile.
