Themis Medicare Faces Significant Challenges Amidst Declining Profits and Market Volatility

Themis Medicare, a small-cap player in the Pharmaceuticals & Drugs industry, has experienced significant volatility today, hitting a new 52-week low of Rs. 117.9. This marks a notable decline of 7.85% from its previous close, contributing to an underperformance of 6.05% against its sector peers. The stock's performance over the past year has been challenging, with a staggering decline of 48.86%, contrasting sharply with the Sensex's modest drop of 1.13% during the same period. The company's recent financial results have raised concerns, with a sharp decline in profit after tax (PAT) of 96.1% and a 10.7% decrease in net sales compared to previous quarters. Additionally, Themis Medicare's cash and cash equivalents have reached a low of Rs. 17.60 crore, indicating potential liquidity issues. Despite these challenges, the company maintains a low debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 1.01, suggesting a strong ability to service its debt. The operating profit has shown healthy growth at an annual rate of 47.04%. However, the stock's technical indicators remain bearish, reflecting ongoing market pressures and a lack of confidence from domestic mutual funds, which hold no stake in the company.
