Revenue guidance

Category 4
  • The company targets a retail footprint expansion of around 15-16% for FY2025 with strong franchise interest, indicating growth in physical presence.
  • Despite a soft Q3 and some market headwinds like lower wedding days and consumer softness, management expects Q4 to be stronger, especially with better performance anticipated in March.
  • Long-term strategy focuses on apparels with an openness to explore related segments cautiously.
  • Sales growth in Q3 was 7.5% YoY; management looks at YoY growth comparisons, especially for Q4 vs. Q4 last year, rather than just absolute numbers.
  • Footfall and average basket size have shown positive trends despite current softness.
  • Business remains resilient with high gross margins (~67%) and steady EBITDA margins.
  • Continuous churn of smaller stores in favor of bigger, more productive stores supports revenue per square foot growth and volume expansion.
  • Online penetration is low but expected to grow with e-commerce industry growth, potentially aiding future volume growth.

  • Their business model allows launching new brands without requiring significant capital investment.
  • New brands are designed to be profitable from the very first financial year.
