Highlights
Bangladesh Thai Aluminium Limited, popularly known as BD Thai, witnessed a significant 70% decline in revenue, which resulted in wider losses in the 2024–25 fiscal year.
Due to the losses, the engineering sector firm has decided not to declare any dividend for its shareholders for FY25.
With the announcement of a significant loss for last fiscal year, the company has now been incurring losses for three consecutive fiscal years since FY2022–23.
Its seven-year data from FY20 to FY25 shows that the latest loss is the highest in the period. Last year, despite a Tk10.81 crore loss, the company still paid a 0.25% cash dividend to shareholders.
According to its financial statements for the year ended June 2025, BD Thai's revenue dropped to Tk18 crore — a 70% decline from Tk60.28 crore in the previous fiscal year.
The company's losses widened to Tk25.71 crore, with a loss per share of Tk2.01. In the previous year, its loss per share stood at Tk0.85.
Despite the drop in revenue and wider losses, BD Thai's share price rose by 6.93% to Tk10.80 each on the Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) today.
Its net asset value (NAV) per share fell to Tk28.60 at the end of June 2025, compared to Tk30.56 a year earlier.
Its net operating cash flow per share also remained negative at Tk1.32, against Tk0.96 negative in FY24.
The company's annual general meeting is scheduled for 30 December through a hybrid format — combining physical and online participation.
The record date for determining shareholders has been fixed for 14 December.
BD Thai began operations in 1979 as a pioneer in manufacturing aluminum profiles for doors, windows, and curtain walls in Bangladesh. It was listed on the stock exchanges in 1991.
