Reading snippets on line apparently this is a record quarterly loss in the firms history. The Indian financial press are unconvinced about their management ability to turn things round citing reduced profitability and increasing costs. They highlight the next quarter results as a clear indicator of the firms direction. 

There is definitely trouble at t mill.

Judging by how our club has been run  it would be no surprise to see losses continue.

Largely macro factors but an 8% SP drop after a single quarter is significant. Reading the article looks as though they are (still) trying to diversify into other ventures. Rovers are one of the many that have likely failed to supplement the core business. 

With any business or P&L, when you get a negative top line the first thing that they will do is control the spend. We won't be seeing any investment for a while.....or, ever?

Bleak times over at Venky towers. What a shame for them.

Would they take a significant loss in their books if they sold us (with a loss)? 

Previously they've said categorically that we're not for sale, now it's different tune. I don't expect anything to happen anytime soon, but within the next five years I believe we'll have different owners.

Iv'e thought more than one recently that financial control of Rovers may well have been wrested away from the 4 loons by the VH group finance dept and/or their lenders before it brought the whole lot crashing down.

The cost cutting and cashing in ramped up undeniably since another of their finance men was stuck on the Rovers board.

If i were them i'd be recommending just what a good idea it would be to grab some money back from a sale of the club and write off the debt alongside future losses.

There may be some mileage in this, the narrative around a sale recently has changed substantially from "We will NEVER sell the Club" a few years ago to the 3 stooges hinting that a sale might not be out of the question in the car crash interviews and Pasha saying every Club is for sale at the right price at the Fans Forum.

Edit: We need a lot more pressure on their lackeys Gestede,  Pasha and Ismael from the Coalition and with a bit of luck they might all decide at some point it's just not worth it.

Venkys (India) Stock Plummets to New 52-Week Low at Rs. 1325.2

Venkys (India) has reached a new 52-week low, reflecting a significant decline in stock performance over the past four days. The company is trading below all major moving averages and has reported a substantial drop in profit after tax, highlighting ongoing financial challenges in a competitive market.

In terms of moving averages, Venkys (India) is currently trading below its 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages, indicating a sustained downward trend. Over the past year, the stock has generated a return of -24.31%, contrasting sharply with the Sensex's performance of 7.40% during the same period.

Financial metrics reveal that the company has faced difficulties, with a reported PAT of Rs. -26.53 crore in its latest quarter, a staggering decline of 285.3% compared to the previous four-quarter average. Additionally, the company's return on capital employed (ROCE) stands at a low 3.38%, and its inventory turnover ratio is at 12.78 times, both of which are concerning indicators of operational efficiency.

In business, it’s common to see companies make symbolic moves such as selling off assets to create the impression of meaningful change, even when they know the financial impact will be minimal. Often, these actions are more about optics than substance, aimed at signalling commitment to improvement rather than delivering real results.

I wouldn’t be surprised if selling Blackburn becomes part of this strategy in the future, framed as an effort to avoid sinking another £200m+ over the next decade with little to show for it. The fact they’re currently trying to sell to generate cash suggests this could be a way to offset existing losses. However, once they realise there’s little left to liquidate, the focus will likely shift to selling to the highest bidder. 

Let's hope someone is in the Rao Family's ears suggesting this sooner rather than later!

Absolutely gutted for them… not

Here's hoping that this club keeps costing them a fortune and they're forced into a position whereby selling up is the only viable option.

We surely don't have anyone else bar maybe Cantwell, Toth, Tronstad and Alebiasu who would fetch anything more than a few hundred grand. 

Let the losses continue.

Every penny not spent on the club by fans at this point counts. 

As has been said, this isn't a "drop in the ocean", this is substantial loss for a business with shareholders, they won't look too kindly on a passion project costing the firm in excess of £20m a year.
