Capex plans

Yes

- Lux Industries currently focuses on minimizing capex for expansion, especially in EBOs (Exclusive Brand Outlets), by adopting a FOFO (Franchise Owned Franchise Operated) model, reducing upfront capital requirement. - The company plans to open more EBO stores (aiming for 50 by next year) but remains cautious on capex allocation, prioritizing operational efficiency and brand building initially. - Lux intends to use available cash conservatively, focusing first on dividends (subject to board approval) and then business growth investments once strategies are finalized. - There is a strategic plan to integrate production and supply chain for better inventory management, indirectly supporting efficient capex usage in operations. - No immediate large-scale capex announced; future capital investments will be aligned with business plans once firmed up and disclosed. Thus, current capex is minimal and strategic, with a prudent approach towards growth capital allocation.
