fundraise

Any current/future new fundraising through debt or equity?

- Dollar Industries has deferred its Qualified Institutional Placement (QIP) fundraising plan due to prevailing market conditions. - If any QIP is raised in the near future, it will be used exclusively to fuel growth (new product launches, market expansion) and not for debt repayment. - The company plans to reduce debt primarily through internal accruals over the next two years, aiming to become debt-free by FY 2027. - No current plans to raise funds through debt; the focus is on operational cash flow for debt reduction. - The management is assessing future fundraising needs carefully to ensure actions are in the best interest of shareholders.

capex

Any current/future capex/capital investment/strategic investment?
