revenue

Future growth expectations in sales/revenue/volumes?

- Titan expects a 15%-20% CAGR growth in revenue over the next 3 to 5 years, reflecting a medium-term outlook rather than annual guidance. - Growth is driven by formalization of the jewelry industry, strong brand trust, and India's underlying economic growth. - Despite volatility in gold prices, the company maintains this growth target, managing buyer growth to keep jewelry accessible. - Quarter 1 and 2 may benefit from recent gold price inflation, potentially boosting near-term growth, while Quarter 3 and 4 are expected to normalize. - Expansion plans include scaling up beYon LGD stores from current 2 to around 10-12 stores to tap into low penetration diamond markets. - Buyer growth returned to 8% in Q4 helped by exchange campaigns, new diamond collections, and wedding purchase advancements, indicating sustainable demand drivers. - The company aims at improving same-store growth, inventory turns, and buyer growth especially in sub-₹10,000 price bands in segments like Taneira.

margin

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

- Titan targets a revenue growth of 15%-20% CAGR over the next 3-5 years, driven by industry formalization, strong brand presence, and India's growth story. - EBIT is expected to grow healthily but at a slightly lower rate than revenue, influenced by structural gold price impacts and product mix. - Margins appear sustainable if gold prices stabilize, with potential for improvement from a favorable product mix and customer activations. - The company anticipates sustained buyer growth supported by exchange programs and fresh campaigns, aiding profitability. - Q1 and Q2 FY27 may see growth tailwinds due to gold price inflation, though later quarters will depend on gold price trajectory. - Management remains confident in achieving around 15%-20% growth annually, asserting this is a medium-term target rather than short-term guidance. - Platinum, Damas integration, and beYon LGD store expansion offer additional growth avenues, with gradual scaling up planned.
