margin

Future growth expectations in earnings/operating earnings/profits/EPS?

- The company maintains a conservative full-year revenue growth guidance of 10% to 12% despite strong Q1 growth of 21%, attributing the high Q1 growth to a low base. - EBITDA and PAT margins are expected to improve over the year, with efforts ongoing to improve operational efficiency in both traditional and new retail businesses. - New retail ventures (ZECODE and DEVO) are in early stages; profitability at store level is expected to improve as stores mature (estimated EBITDA breakeven in 15-18 months). - The apparel segment, currently about 3% of revenue, is anticipated to grow in volume and value, increasing its share in total revenue as the brands expand. - Long-term outlook remains positive driven by festive season demand, rising disposable incomes, and expanding retail infrastructure. - No specific EPS guidance given, but management is focused on achieving and potentially exceeding current guidance as opportunities arise.
