📊 Operational Insights and Margin Indicators

The company's cost of raw materials increased in line with revenues, but a drop in interest expenses and a significant jump in profit before tax suggest improved margin management. Additionally, the depreciation expense rose due to potential capital investments or asset additions, while employee costs remained stable.


💬 Expert View & Outlook

Apex Frozen’s strong YoY growth in sales and profit margins reflects robust demand and operational improvements. While quarterly revenue dropped compared to Dec’24, the bottom-line growth and positive EPS reversal are promising signs.

With stable global seafood demand and a focus on value-added products, Apex Frozen Foods could be an interesting pick for long-term investors eyeing the Indian seafood export sector.
