Styrenix Performance Materials Falls to 52-Week Low of Rs. 2062.45

On 19 Nov 2025, Styrenix Performance Materials touched an intraday low of Rs. 2062.45, representing a 2.87% drop during the trading session. The stock has been on a downward trajectory for five consecutive days, resulting in a cumulative return decline of 12.62% over this period. This recent slump contrasts with the broader market, where the Sensex opened flat at 84,643.78 and was trading near its 52-week high of 85,290.06, just 0.73% away from that peak.

Styrenix’s performance today lagged behind its sector by 2.79%, and it is currently trading below all key moving averages, including the 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages. This technical positioning indicates a sustained weakness in the stock’s price momentum relative to its historical trading levels.

Over the past year, Styrenix Performance Materials has generated a negative return of 15.32%, a stark contrast to the Sensex’s positive return of 9.24% and the BSE500’s 7.83% gain over the same period. The stock’s 52-week high was Rs. 3523.95, highlighting the extent of the decline from its peak to the current low.

Financial results for the quarter ending September 2025 reveal a subdued performance. The company reported a Profit After Tax (PAT) of Rs. 44.72 crores, which is 20.8% lower compared to the average of the previous four quarters. Additionally, Profit Before Tax excluding other income (PBT less OI) stood at Rs. 53.91 crores, marking the lowest level in recent quarters. Cash and cash equivalents for the half-year period were recorded at Rs. 19.94 crores, the lowest in the recent half-yearly data.

Despite these figures, Styrenix Performance Materials demonstrates strong management efficiency, reflected in a Return on Equity (ROE) of 21.45%. The company’s ability to service debt remains robust, with a Debt to EBITDA ratio of 0.43 times, indicating a conservative leverage position relative to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation.

Operating profit has shown a healthy long-term growth trend, with an annual growth rate of 52.12%. The Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) stands at 16.8%, suggesting effective utilisation of capital resources. The enterprise value to capital employed ratio is 2.6, which positions the stock at a discount relative to its peers’ average historical valuations.

While the stock price has declined by 15.32% over the past year, the company’s profits have also fallen by 4.2% during the same period. This combination of price and profit movement underscores the challenges faced by Styrenix Performance Materials in aligning market valuation with financial performance.

Styrenix Performance Materials is majority-owned by promoters, which continues to provide a stable ownership structure. The stock’s market capitalisation grade is rated at 3, reflecting its mid-tier market capitalisation within the Specialty Chemicals sector.

In comparison, the Sensex is trading above its 50-day moving average, with the 50 DMA positioned above the 200 DMA, indicating a bullish trend in the broader market. Mid-cap stocks are leading gains today, with the BSE Mid Cap index rising by 0.05%, further highlighting the relative underperformance of Styrenix Performance Materials within its sector and market segment.

Overall, the stock’s recent fall to its 52-week low of Rs. 2062.45 is a culmination of subdued quarterly financial results, a decline in profitability, and technical weakness relative to moving averages. While the company maintains strong management efficiency and a healthy debt servicing capacity, the market has reflected these factors in the current valuation and price performance.
