The score is held down primarily by weakening financial performance (margin collapse, negative EBIT, and persistently negative operating/free cash flow) and a bearish technical setup (below major DMAs with negative MACD). A moderate P/E provides some offset, but not enough to overcome operating and cash-generation concerns.

How the Company Makes Money

Prudential Sugar Corp. Ltd. Financial Statement Overview

Summary

Financials are pressured: FY2025 revenue fell ~12% YoY, gross margin compressed sharply (~8.3% to ~1.0%), and EBIT swung from positive to negative. Balance sheet is only moderately supportive (debt-to-equity ~0.43, ROE ~5–6%), but consistently negative operating and free cash flow in FY2024–FY2025 raises earnings-quality and funding-risk concerns.

Income Statement

Revenue declined in FY2025 (down ~12% year over year), reversing the strong growth seen in FY2024. Profitability is mixed: net margin stayed around ~6%, but gross margin compressed sharply (from ~8.3% to ~1.0%), signaling significant input-cost pressure and/or weaker pricing. Operating performance also deteriorated with EBIT moving from positive in FY2024 to negative in FY2025, despite EBITDA remaining positive—suggesting profits are vulnerable and supported by items outside core operating strength.

Balance Sheet

Leverage looks moderate with debt-to-equity rising to ~0.43 in FY2025 (from ~0.29 in FY2024), but still not extreme. Equity increased, and return on equity remained positive (~5–6%), indicating the business is still profitable on an accounting basis. The main weakness is the upward drift in leverage alongside weakening operating results, which reduces balance-sheet flexibility if margins remain under pressure.

Cash Flow

Cash generation is a key concern: operating cash flow and free cash flow were negative in both FY2024 and FY2025, although the cash burn improved in FY2025 (less negative than FY2024). With negative operating cash flow despite positive net income, earnings quality appears weak and the company may be relying on working-capital movements or external funding to support operations and investment needs.
