Financial Performance and Profitability Trends
Whirlpool of India Ltd’s financial results have reflected a challenging environment. The company reported a Profit Before Tax (PBT) excluding other income of negative Rs.2.24 crore for the latest quarter, representing a sharp fall of 109.32% compared to the previous period. Similarly, Profit After Tax (PAT) declined by 34.4% to Rs.34.13 crore. Net sales for the quarter stood at Rs.1,647.27 crore, marking the lowest quarterly sales figure recorded recently.
Over the last five years, the company’s operating profit has contracted at an annual rate of -0.49%, indicating subdued growth in core earnings. This sluggish expansion has contributed to the stock’s underperformance relative to broader market indices. Over the past year, Whirlpool’s stock has delivered a negative return of -50.67%, while the Sensex gained 8.72% during the same period. The stock has also lagged behind the BSE500 index over one year, three years, and three months, highlighting persistent underperformance.
Valuation and Financial Ratios
Despite the recent price decline, Whirlpool of India Ltd maintains certain valuation metrics that may be considered attractive. The company’s Return on Equity (ROE) stands at 8.3%, and it trades at a Price to Book Value ratio of 2.8, which is lower than the average historical valuations of its peers in the Electronics & Appliances sector. This discount reflects market caution given the company’s recent financial results and growth outlook.
The company’s debt profile remains conservative, with an average Debt to Equity ratio of zero, indicating minimal leverage. Institutional investors hold a significant stake of 39.61%, which has increased by 0.57% over the previous quarter, suggesting continued confidence from large shareholders despite the stock’s price decline.
However, the Price/Earnings to Growth (PEG) ratio is elevated at 4.5, reflecting a disparity between the company’s profit growth rate of 7.4% over the past year and its current valuation multiples.
