Akola Group's Q1 FY 2024/2025: A Slower Start Compared to Last Year Revenues dipped by 9% YoY, mainly due to a sharp downturn in the partners with farmers segment 🚜. Declines in grain and oilseed sales, coupled with lower wheat prices, significantly impacted this division 🌻. On the brighter side, the food production segment was a standout performer, achieving a historic operating profitability of 10% in this quarter - outperforming even the core segment (partners with farmers) in operating profit ☀️. Despite these positive developments, the overall financial picture remains challenging. Net profit saw a 16% YoY decline, with adjustments from last year bringing this to a sharper 27% drop 📉. As is typical for Q1, free cash flow turned negative due to seasonal inventory buildup. The trailing 12-month free cash flow remains negative (due to increased CapEx) 🚫, raising some concerns about dividend sustainability, especially in the context of increasing debt level. Valuation multiples seems not very appealing: EV/EBITDA ~8.1 and P/E ~8.8 – particularly in the context of still struggling core business segment. 🤔 Unlock deeper insights – review the company’s financials and explore Lithuania’s agricultural trends on PLY platform! 🔍 #AkolaGroup #Agriculture #FinancialReports #MarketAnalysis #NasdaqBaltic #PLYPlatform #InvestmentInsights
