Q1FY22 Result Update - Symphony Ltd - ICICI Direct

Higher spends on advertisement and other expenditure in April 2021 impacted EBITDA margin.

- Revenue grew ~49% YoY to Rs. 230 crore (down ~32% QoQ)

- Better gross margins (up 452 bps YoY) helped turned EBITDA positive at 4.3% vs. -3.2% in Q1FY21. However, lower-than-expected EBITDA margin is mainly due to higher advertisement expense (3x jump YoY)

- PAT increased to Rs. 6 crore (3x jump YoY) supported by a favourable base

Key triggers for future price performance

- The air cooler industry is dominated by unorganised players (~70% of total industry). We believe organised players would gain market share due to their strong balance sheet and robust supply chain network

- Increased rural electrification and urbanisation will augment growth in the Indian air cooler market. Residential air cooler industry will get a boost from ~1.7 crore new houses under PMAY

- Industrial air-cooling market is worth ~Rs. 10,000 crore and Symphony being the only branded player in this segment stands to take advantage of it
