Highlights for the quarter ended June 2022
During the quarter ended June 2022, the company saw recovery in the business led
by continued traction in corporate and leisure travel. The total revenue increased
4.6x YoY and 60.6% QoQ to Rs. 192 crores. The occupancy for the quarter was 65.1%
vs. 46.1% in Q4FY22 (29.6% in Q1FY22). ARR was higher by 18% QoQ to Rs. 4,822 vs.
Rs. 4,093 (Rs. 2,362 in Q1FY22). RevPAR also witnessed a growth of 66% QoQ to Rs.
3,138 vs. Rs. 1,888 in Q4FY22 (Rs. 700 in Q1FY22).
Operating revenue for the company was Rs. 87.6 crores vs. Rs. 21.6 crores in Q4FY22, up ~4x QoQ. Operating margin was 45.6% vs. ~18% in Q4FY22, supported by permanent cost rationalisation, lower stamp duty expenses related to amalgamation of Meringue Hotels, Begonia Hotels, and Nightingale Hotels with Fleur Hotels and lower other expenses. Further, despite lower other income and higher taxes, the company’s PAT stood at Rs. 13.6 crores vs. ~Rs. 39 crores losses in Q4FY22.
Key Conference Call Highlights
The strong Q1FY23 performance was in-line with our expectations. We believe, growth in corporate and leisure travel would further support the growth of the company in medium-to-long term. The growth would be further supported by higher ARRs and higher occupancy rate. Further, the cost rationalisation would aid the operating margins along with higher operating leverage. Further, the management believes the good demand visibility for the industry in next 3-5 years. The favourable demand-supply scenario would aid the higher ARRs and would help the overall industry and the LTH business.
At the CMP of 68, the stock trades at 15.4x of FY24E EV/EBITDA.
