We attribute the fall in revenue to 8%/11%/16% YoY lower volumes in yarn, grey fabric and processed fabric, respectively, impacted by weak demand. Gross margin contracted 1,537 bps YoY to 37% due to the high-cost inventory. Ebitda margin contracted 1,626 bps YoY to 7.5%, and was below our estimate of 15.1%, due to lower gross margin and lower operating leverage, as plants operated at lower utilisation. Vardhman Textiles' Ebitda fell 71% YoY to Rs 1.8 billion, lower than our estimate of Rs 4.1 billion. Reported profit after tax slumped by 78% to Rs 951 million, below our estimate of Rs 2.3 billion. We expect demand to recover in the coming quarters, albeit at a slower pace, afflicted by high-channel inventory along with inflationary and recessionary pressures. We have factored in weak nine months-FY23 performance and have cut our FY23/24E earnings by 32%/28%. We introduce FY25E and roll forward our valuation to FY25E..Click on the attachment to read the full report:.DISCLAIMERThis report is authored by an external party.
