Latest Quarter Info
For the quarter ending December 2025, the company demonstrated steady revenue momentum with a 13.9% year-over-year increase, signaling sustained top-line growth despite a modest quarter-over-quarter performance. However, the operating margin of 12% faced significant pressure further down the income statement. While operating profit reached 7,991, the final net profit was impacted by substantial non-operating expenses and tax obligations. This resulted in a notable decline in net profit and earnings per share on both a sequential and annual basis. The divergence between stable revenue generation and compressed bottom-line profitability highlights the influence of external financial costs and tax burdens on the overall quarterly outcome.
