Cosmo Ferrites Ltd. reports results for Q3’24

Bengaluru, 8th February 2024: Cosmo Ferrites Limited, a leading manufacturer and exporter of Soft Ferrites and an emerging player in wire wound magnetic components today declared its financial results for the quarter and nine months ended December 2023.

Q3, FY24 witnessed a sharp drop in sales realization compared to the same quarter last year due to dumping of low-priced materials from the neighbouring country.

The company completed the capacity expansion in Q4 FY 22-23. While the benefit of capacity expansion would start accruing in due course, the interest and depreciation costs on such capacity expansion have already come in the P & L impacting ‘Profit before tax’ adversely.

In the previous quarter, the Government, at the company’s representation started anti-dumping investigation in the matter import of soft ferrite cores from China. The investigation is generally progressing as per the notified schedule. Likely favorable outcome will help improve operating margin and capacity utilization.
