First Cut 1QFY24 results – beat on revenue and margins
Revenue grew by c23% YoY, helped by volume growth of c11% and came ahead of our and Bloomberg consensus estimates (BBGe). EBITDA margins at 13.4% were higher than our (12.7%) and BBGe (13.2%). Gross margin was slightly higher QoQ 30bps, despite higher share from farm division, but largely in line with expectation. Strong control on other operating expenses aided the EBITDA beat. Higher other income (which included dividends from subsidiaries) and lower interest expenses led to the significant PAT beat.
MM has undertaken a restructuring in its reporting and numbers are not comparable with earlier periods.
PL View:
Overall, standalone numbers are beat on our and street estimates and EBIT margins for both Auto and Farm division have expanded, however, due to change in reporting structure numbers are not comparable. We will try to get more clarity on the restructuring at the investor meet today.
