1. Financial Highlights:
Brand Concepts reported Q4 revenue of Rs 659.1 mn, up 13.4% YoY, with FY25 revenue at Rs 2,726.9 mn, growing 8.8% YoY. EBITDA rose 28.3% YoY to Rs 76.4 mn, with adjusted EBITDA margin improving to 11.6% from 10.2%. Adjusted PAT margin was 2.7%, slightly down due to higher interest (up 75.8%) and depreciation (up 39.7%) reflecting ongoing capex. Q4 net profit increased 22.5% to Rs 13.1 mn. Borrowings stood at Rs 689.46 mn, and fixed assets rose due to new manufacturing and warehouse investments.
