Adani Ports & Special Economic Zone (APSEZ) posted a net profit of ₹3,107 crore in the first quarter of financial year 2024-25 (Q1FY25), as per the consolidated results declared by the company on Thursday, August 1.

'Stellar performance'

The 47% YoY surge in net profit marks a "stellar" opening quarter for Adani Ports, the company's whole-time director and CEO Ashwani Gupta said.

“FY25 has begun on a strong note for us with stellar performance on both financial and growth fronts. On the financial front, we posted all-time high earnings. But for the temporary disruption in Gangavaram Port, which is now fully restored, our Q1 cargo volume would have been at 114.7 MMT, a 13% increase," he said.

The company's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) increased 29% YoY to ₹4,848 crore, as compared to ₹3,755 crore in the year-ago period.

Notably, Adani Ports' edged higher during early trade on Thursday, but turned almost flat as the results were about to get released. After the earnings report was out, the shares rose again in the afternoon trading. The scrip was valued ₹1,592.45 apiece on the NSE at 1:39 pm, up 1.44% from the previous day's close.
