D.P. Abhushan Ltd

- A Qualified Institutional Placement (QIP) process is ongoing, with active efforts being made; an update is expected shortly (Page 14). - Market conditions may be awaited to improve before proceeding with the QIP to minimize shareholder dilution (Page 14). - The QIP is not directly linked to current store opening delays but if successful, it will accelerate store expansion and overall growth (Page 15). - Even without the QIP, the company plans to open stores using internal accruals (Page 15). - No specific mention of new debt fundraising in the transcript.

- The company plans a capex of INR 2.5 to 3 crores for medium-sized stores (3,000 to 5,000 sq ft) and INR 5 to 7 crores for larger stores (8,000 to 10,000 sq ft). - Payback period for capex is generally around nine months based on past experience. - Store expansion plans include opening around 4-5 new stores next year and approximately 20 additional stores over the next 2-3 years, focusing on Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, and Maharashtra. - The company is expanding its lightweight jewellery segment under the brand "Amoura" across existing stores with plans for separate expansion. - QIP (Qualified Institutional Placement) fundraising is ongoing, which if successful, will accelerate store expansion and overall growth. - Internal accruals will also fund at least one store opening this financial year, with plans for multiple store launches before Akshaya Tritiya and Diwali.

- The company expects strong revenue growth of around 25% to 30% for FY ’26 and similar growth rates for FY ’27. - Growth drivers include same-store sales growth (SSSG) of around 10%–15% consistently and new store additions. - Around 20 new stores are planned over the next 2-3 years, focusing on Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities across Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, and Maharashtra. - Q4, driven by the wedding season, is expected to see significantly higher sales, potentially almost doubling compared to earlier quarters. - Despite a recent volume decline (~29% YoY for nine months), growth is anticipated to rebound if gold prices stabilize or decline. - Lightweight and lower-carat jewellery segments (18-carat, 14-carat, and silver) are growing and expected to contribute to sales growth. - Inventory gains from rising gold prices and product mix shifts also support margin and volume expansion prospects.

- The company targets strong revenue growth of around 25% to 30% for FY '26 and expects to sustain a similar growth rate in FY '27. - Growth drivers include same-store sales growth (SSSG) of 10-15% and addition of new stores, with plans to open around 20 new stores by FY '29. - Operating leverage and margin expansion are expected as gross profit grows faster (20%-25%) than employee and other operating expenses (10%-12%). - EBITDA margins have expanded and are expected to continue improving due to favorable product mix shifts toward higher-margin diamond and silver jewellery alongside gold. - Profit after tax (PAT) margins improved to ~6% in Q3 FY '26 and PAT grew 96% YoY for the quarter; this upward profit trajectory is expected to persist. - The company remains focused on disciplined execution and margin sustainability, supported by inventory gains and pricing discipline.
