Commenting on the performance of Q2 and H1FY23, the management team stated: “We are happy to share that, we have reported a strong performance for the quarter & half year ended 30th September, 2022. On the Revenue front we have grown by 66.02% from Rs. 1,369.19 million in Q2FY22 to Rs. 2,273.20 million in Q2FY23. EBITDA has grown by 131.99% and EBITDA margins have also improved remarkably from 7.69% in Q2FY22 to 10.75% in Q2FY23, thus reporting an improvement of 306bps on a YoY basis, mainly driven by an increased volume of business, cost controls and scale led benefits due to addition of TEUs.
We continue to witness robust demand for our services buoyed by increasing economic activity and high consumption led demand in the geographies we operate. Despite the overall level of port congestion lowering and freight rates stabilizing we remain confident of our capabilities to provide distinguished client satisfying services and the overall prospectus of the industry we operate in.
In order to rightfully capture the market opportunity that lie ahead of us, we at LCL have been consistently increasing the fleet of containers. Accordingly, we had issued FCCBs worth USD 30 Million which received a great response. The funds have been invested in our wholly owned subsidiary Lancia Shipping LLC for procurement of containers, expanding into newer geographies and also developing new representative offices. All of these initiatives endeavor to establish LCL as one of the pioneering and most reputable global logistics company.
In line with the above mission, we inducted 2,423 TEU’s during the H1FY23 and expect to further add more TEU’s by the end of FY23
To conclude, I would like to say that we at Lancer remain committed in achieving our goals and are taking the appropriate steps in the direction of being one of the market leaders in supply chain logistics in the country.”
