Restaurants company Sapphire Foods India announced Q2FY25 results

  • Our Q2 FY25 Consolidatedidated Restaurant Sales (Rs 6,940 million) grew by 8% with EBITDA (Rs1,152 million) at 16.6%. Demand conditions continued to be muted.

  • Consolidated PBT before exceptional items (Rs53 million, 0.8%) | Consolidated Adj. PBT before exceptional items (Rs 143 million, 2.1%).
  • Sapphire KFC grew restaurant sales by 9% YoY (SSSG -8%). Q2 is generally a soft quarter for Sapphire KFC owing to the number of vegetarian-only festival days and this year we have seen a greater impact in sales during such days. Owing to deleverage, Restaurant EBITDA came at 16.5% (down by 270 bps YoY). Our recipe for SSSG revival revolves around increasing occasions of consumption through value & product innovations (Chicken Rolls variants, Zinger Burger variants, Snackers), focus on day parts (lunch, late night, Wednesdays) and driving value across individual and group meal occasions.
  • After seeing a 17% sequential QoQ upliftment in Average Daily Sales (ADS) in Q1, Pizza Hut ADS has remained stable in Q2. Restaurant Sales increased by 3% YoY (SSSG - 3%). Our Rest. EBITDA is at 4.1% post additional marketing investments. In line with brand revival strategy, we increased marketing investments behind Melts from Apr-Sep and have now launched in October the exciting Momo Mia range of pizzas and appetizers.
  • Recovery of Sri Lanka business continues with both sales & profit improvement. Restaurant Sales grew by 10% in LKR (19% in Rs terms) while SSSG was 9% and Restaurant EBITDA margins were at 15.5% (up by 20 bps YoY).
  • Maldives business (2 KFC & Pizza Hut each, ~ 0.4% of overall revenue) has struggled for the past 1 year and sales is down by 57% YoY due to continuing geopolitical situation. This has resulted in the business incurring losses and hence as a prudent approach, we have taken an impairment (non-cash) of Rs 114 million in Q2FY25 as an exceptional item in Consolidatedidated Financials.

  • Q1FY24 consolidated restaurant sales (Rs 6,526 million) grew by 20% despite the consumer demand headwinds. Raw Material inflation has cooled off thereby improving gross margins. In these conditions, both KFC and Pizza Hut focussed on winning consumer trust by delivering value and product innovation (e.g., KFC Snackers Rs 99/- range, Pizza Hut 10 new core pizzas) with strong advertising programs.
  • Added 35 restaurants in Q1FY24 (17 KFC, 16 Pizza Hut, 1 KFC and Pizza Hut each in Maldives) taking the total restaurant count to 778.

  • Despite flat SSSG (ADS improved over the sequential quarter), KFC delivered strong financial performance. Overall restaurant sales grew YoY by 21%. Gross margin recovery (up 130 bps over the sequential quarter) and cost controls enabled KFC to deliver one of the highest-ever Restaurant EBITDA at 20.8% (up 50 bps YoY). To bolster our menu options across day parts we launched KFC Snackers, a range of 7 products at Rs 99/- which includes Chicken Rolls, Longer Chicken Burger, Popcorn, Fries, and Beverage options.
  • Pizza Hut's overall restaurant sales grew by 12%, however, SSSG declined by 9% (SSTG was flat & ADS improved over the sequential quarter). While there was gross margin recovery (up 50 bps over sequential quarter) restaurant EBITDA dropped to 9.0% (down 580 bps YoY) because of operating deleverage. We continue to invest in the brand through higher advertising spending along with product and value innovations. Our focus on execution to deliver superior customer experience has resulted in us being recognised by YUM! as the No. 1 Franchisee globally for Guest Experience Scores.
  • Sri Lanka's overall restaurant sales grew by 9% in LKR (up 27% in Rs terms) while SSSG was flat. Consumer demand continues to be challenged due to the cumulative impact of inflation and higher direct taxes. Raw Material prices have remained largely stable over the last quarter. Restaurant EBITDA margins were at 13.0% (down 250 bps YoY) due to operating deleverage.
