MUMBAI – Emami Ltd. Tuesday reported a fall in its June quarter consolidated net profit despite a sharp rise in its revenue from operations. The fall in the consolidated net profit was due to the growth in total expenses of the company outpacing the growth in revenue from operations.  

 

The company's consolidated net profit for the June quarter fell 16% on year to INR 1.37 billion, missing analysts' expectation of INR 1.65 billion. Sequentially, the net profit was down 4%. The company's net profit was INR 1.64 billion in the year-ago quarter. The company's revenue from operations for the quarter rose 15% on year to INR 10.39 billion, beating the Street's estimate of INR 10.13 billion. Sequentially, the revenue from operations was up 12%. The other income of the company fell more than 14% on year to INR 185 million.

 

The company's total expenses for the June quarter rose 18% on year to INR 8.13 billion. The cost of material consumed by the company rose 31% on year to INR 2.15 billion and the purchases of stock-in-trade rose nearly 6% on year to INR 1.15 billion. The employee benefit expenses for the June quarter was INR 1.36 billion, up nearly 14% on year. The company spent INR 2.03 billion for advertisement and sales promotion, up 13% on year.

The two companies were acquired by Emami in the starting of the June quarter. The company's international business reported sales of INR 1.22 billion, down 12% on year, affected by the war in West Asia.

 

"We are particularly encouraged by the growing contribution of our Strategic Investments portfolio, which now accounts for nearly 18% of our domestic business, reinforcing our strategy of building multiple growth engines alongside our trusted core brands", Harsha V. Agarwal, managing director, said.

 

The earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation rose 6% on year in the June quarter to INR 2.26 billion from INR 2.14 billion in the year-ago quarter.
