Business Overview and Revenue Trends
Forbes & Company Ltd operates within the engineering sector, specifically focusing on general engineering services. As of the latest reporting, the company’s stock price stood at ₹361, with a market capitalization of ₹466 Cr. The company has demonstrated significant fluctuations in sales, with a notable decline in revenue from ₹3,067 Cr in FY 2014 to just ₹47 Cr in FY 2023. However, there has been a recovery trend, with sales reported at ₹125 Cr for FY 2024 and ₹199 Cr for FY 2025. Quarterly sales figures show a mixed performance, with highs of ₹121.85 Cr in June 2022, plunging to as low as ₹11.26 Cr in March 2023, before rebounding to ₹87.08 Cr in March 2025. This volatility reflects the company’s struggle to maintain consistent sales levels, which is further highlighted by the operating profit margin (OPM) fluctuating significantly, with a high of 11.44% in September 2022 and a negative OPM of -32.68% in March 2023.
Profitability and Efficiency Metrics
The profitability landscape for Forbes & Company Ltd has been characterized by substantial variability. The company recorded a net profit of ₹124 Cr, resulting in a remarkable return on equity (ROE) of 62.4%. The return on capital employed (ROCE) stood at 15.8%, indicating efficient use of capital. However, the operating profit has shown inconsistencies, with quarterly figures ranging from a high of ₹7.37 Cr in September 2022 to a loss of ₹3.68 Cr in March 2023. The net profit margin for FY 2025 was an impressive 62.48%, significantly higher than the typical sector range, suggesting strong profitability in the latest period. Furthermore, the interest coverage ratio (ICR) was recorded at a robust 83.50x, indicating that the company comfortably meets its interest obligations. However, the cash conversion cycle was reported at -13 days, reflecting potential inefficiencies in managing working capital.
Balance Sheet Strength and Financial Ratios
Forbes & Company Ltd’s balance sheet reflects a solid financial position with no reported borrowings, contributing to a total debt-to-equity ratio of 0.00. The company has maintained a current ratio of 1.61, indicating sufficient liquidity to cover short-term liabilities. The book value per share has improved to ₹170.16 in FY 2025 from ₹60.88 in FY 2024, showcasing growth in shareholder equity. Key financial ratios reveal a price-to-book value (P/BV) of 1.71x, which is relatively high compared to typical sector benchmarks, indicating that the stock may be valued at a premium. The revenue from operations per share was reported at ₹154.46, while the operating profit margin stood at 22.11%, reflecting operational efficiency. However, the inventory turnover ratio of 0.26x suggests challenges in managing inventory levels, which could impact cash flow and operational efficiency.
Shareholding Pattern and Investor Confidence
The shareholding pattern of Forbes & Company Ltd indicates a stable ownership structure, with promoters holding a significant 73.85% stake. Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) accounted for 8.24%, while domestic institutional investors (DIIs) held a mere 0.19%. The public shareholding stood at 16.87%, demonstrating a modest level of retail investor participation. The number of shareholders has decreased from 14,336 in December 2022 to 12,743 in September 2025, reflecting a potential decline in investor confidence. Despite this, the promoters’ consistent stake suggests a long-term commitment to the company’s growth. The decline in FII participation from 11.52% in December 2022 to 8.24% by March 2025 may raise concerns regarding international investor sentiment towards the company’s future prospects. This pattern indicates varying levels of confidence among different investor segments.
Outlook, Risks, and Final Insight
The outlook for Forbes & Company Ltd hinges on its ability to stabilize revenue and enhance operational efficiency. The recent recovery in sales figures and strong profitability metrics provide a positive backdrop; however, the company’s historical volatility presents inherent risks. Key strengths include a robust ROE, zero debt on the balance sheet, and a high interest coverage ratio, which create a favorable financial environment. Conversely, risks include fluctuating sales, inefficient inventory management, and a declining number of shareholders, which may affect market perception. Should the company effectively leverage its operational strengths and improve its sales consistency, it could enhance investor confidence and drive stock performance. Alternatively, failure to address efficiency issues and stabilize revenue could hinder growth prospects and negatively impact investor sentiment.
