HUL profit holds firm, but margins contract
Financial Express Kochi
|April 25, 2025
Volume growth at 2%; revenue up 2.4%
HINDUSTAN UNILEVER (HUL), the country's largest consumer goods maker, on Thursday reported a rise in fourth-quarter profit (Q4FY25), meeting analysts' estimates. However, margins contracted due to inflation in key commodities such as palm oil, tea, and coffee. HUL's standalone net profit increased by 3.6% year-on-year to ₹2,493 crore in Q4, aligning with Bloomberg's consensus estimate of ₹2,482 crore.
Urban demand remained muted in Q4, while rural demand showed resilience, consistent with market research insights from Nielsen and Kantar for the quarter. HUL derives 60% of its revenue from urban areas and 40% from rural markets.
