• Management said a one-time loss flowed through EBITDA and PAT due to 2% of inventory being destroyed/impacted, pulling EBITDA down by about Rs 11 crore; normalized EBITDA and PAT grew healthily.
• Quarterly revenue was about Rs 126 crore, described as a subscription business with revenue adding every month; management flagged seasonality with H1 (Feb-Sep) being stronger on revenue due to job switches, summer appliance demand and college joiners.
• Occupancy maintained at 83-85%, with core categories being refrigerator, washing machine and mattress, plus fast-growing water purifier category (India penetration only ~7% vs ~70% in South Korea).
• Last year the platform saw about 9.5-10 lakh items ordered, displacing an estimated Rs 1,100 crore of market revenue; in Q1 alone 3.2-3.3 lakh items were ordered (~Rs 400 crore displaced value), with items per user rising from 2.6 to 2.8.
• Analyst Mayur Joshi of Mark Smith India noted the business model is interesting but flagged that large cash flows are deployed into inventory, creating a risk to absolute free cash flow growth; stock was trading around Rs 510-512, about Rs 100 above its IPO price.
