The Route to Market (“RTM”) change in AP is completed, and we expect our performance in the state to continue its growth trajectory, in-line with the industry. AP has been well supported by our other Southern states, each of which have seen market share improvements. On the profitability front, we have seen strong growth in subsidy-adjusted EBITDA for Q4FY25 at Rs 65 crore (+35.5% YoY) with 16.6% margins. I am very proud to share that this is our highest-ever quarterly EBITDA. For FY25, the subsidy-adjusted EBITDA stands at Rs 226 crore, with margin at 16.1%. The growth in profitability has been aided by strong volume growth, operating leverage and disciplined cost management. Our focused drive on cash flow management continues, and we now stand at a net cash level of Rs 107 crore, showcasing our Balance Sheet strength. I am also happy to share that the Board of Directors has recommended Dividend of Rs 1/- per equity share for FY 2024-25 to the members at the ensuing Annual General Meeting.” Result PDF
Breweries & Distilleries company Tilaknagar Industries announced Q3FY25 results Net revenue from operations stands at Rs 340 crore v/s Rs 377 crore; due to RTM transition and associated price reduction in Andhra Pradesh. EBITDA improved by 17.4% to Rs 60 crore v/s Rs 51 crore. EBITDA margin improved by 408 basis points, standing at 17.7% as against 13.6%. PAT excl. exceptional items increased by 23.2% to Rs 54 crore from Rs 44 crore. Reported EPS (Diluted) stood at Rs 2.77 per share. Primary volumes grew 2.3% to 30.1 million cases and secondary volumes grew 9.2% over the same period, while NSR stands at Rs 1,161 per case. Amit Dahanukar, Chairman & Managing Director, said: “Q3FY25 has been on expected lines in terms of volume performance. The transition due to change in RTM that the industry went through in Andhra Pradesh not only impacted our volumes but also our revenues, with Mansion House Brandy taking a price reduction in the state. However, despite reduction in NSR, our EBITDA saw significant growth in absolute terms as well as margins on the back of reduced S&D; spends. We also witnessed a slight improvement in EBITDA per case over last quarter. With the transition period more or less behind us, we expect to continue our growth trajectory in Andhra Pradesh. Moreover, while the primary volumes degrew in the state, our secondary volumes grew, with December market share exceeding our best achieved market shares even before the change in RTM. I am also very proud of our performance in the other states. We achieved our highest volumes in Karnataka in Q3, and continue to grow market share in Telangana, Kerala and Puducherry. Q3 also saw us fully repaying our Term Loan with Kotak Bank, and we now have a Gross Debt of Rs 45 crore, while continuing to be net debt free. Our foray into Luxury, Craft and Premium Spirits has truly begun, with Monarch Legacy Edition Brandy getting very positive feedback from trade and consumers. We will now look to further penetrate within these segments, with Samsara Gin being the next play through our royalty arrangement with Spaceman Spirits Lab Pvt Ltd.” Result PDF
Conference Call with Tilaknagar Industries Management and Analysts on Q2FY25 Performance and Outlook. Listen to the full earnings transcript.
Breweries & Distilleries company Tilaknagar Industries announced Q2FY25 results Achieved highest ever quarterly EBITDA in Q2 at Rs 66 crore, YoY growth of 39.1%. EBITDA margin at 17.6%, 422 bps expansion YoY. Profit after tax at Rs 58 crore, YoY growth of 82%; driven by reduction in finance costs. Net debt free as of September 2024, with net cash Rs 25 crore. Amit Dahanukar Chairman & Managing Director, Tilaknagar Industries, said: "I am happy to share that we have turned net debt free as of September 2024. From a peak debt of more than Rs 1,100 crore in March 2019 to achieving net debt-free status, we have come a long way. This transformation was achieved through a combination of financial prudence and achieving industry-beating profitable growth. From a Q2 business perspective, we have delivered our highest-ever EBITDA at Rs 66 crore. Our margins expanded on the back of a superior brand mix as well as cost optimization initiatives. All this despite subdued volume growth on account of the transitioning of RTM in our key state of Andhra Pradesh (“AP”) in Q2. With retail going private in AP from mid-October onwards, we expect to continue with our industry-beating growth trajectory; achieved through a combination of doubling down on our market share gains from our brandy portfolio as well as new product launches across categories. The worst of the inflationary cycle seems behind us, and we expect to grow on our profitability despite increasing investments in A&SP;, providing meaningful ‘Share of Voice’ to brandy as a category".
