What the Numbers Show
The disproportionate rise in net profit (64.6%) compared to revenue growth (18.4%) indicates improved operational leverage and margin expansion. The EBITDA margin expansion to 6.22% from 4.72% further underscores this improvement in operating efficiency. While material costs increased, the ability to grow top-line revenue faster than input costs suggests effective pricing power or a mix shift towards higher-margin products. The significant turnaround in the home appliances segment's profitability, coupled with steady performance in engineering, drove the overall positive outcome despite losses in smaller segments like motor and steel.
