I would now hand over the call to Sujit. Thank you, and over to you, Sujit.
Sujit Mahato: Thank you, Srinivas, and good evening, everyone, on this call. An update on our store network,
openings and closures. We have opened 222 stores at a gross level, and there were 52 store
closures, including 9 relocation cases and 27 franchisee outlet closures.
Additionally, 24 stores are in the process of conversion from company-owned company-
operated stores to the franchise model. We achieved a net addition of 146 stores during the
current quarter compared to the 218 stores added during the last quarter. We continue with the
outlook for adding 800 net new stores, including the franchisee stores in FY27.
In terms of our network age around 27% of our stores have been operational for less than 2 years
and the remaining 73% of our stores have been operational for 2 years or more. In terms of our
network and the store size, at the end of the quarter, our network grew to 5,476 stores with 2.9
million plus square feet compared to 4,813 stores and 2.5 million plus square feet at the end of

performance, stores older than 12 months. Revenue from these stores in quarter 1 was
INR16,436 million, representing 94% of pharmacy revenue.
These stores had a store level EBITDA margin of 10.4% A word here on the store level EBITDA
margin by age, while stores greater than 12 months had a margin of 10.4%. This was 10.6% for
stores greater than 24% and 6.9% for stores in the 13 to 24 months age bracket.
On allocating all non-store-related costs, the operating EBITDA of stores greater than 12 months
would be INR707 million, which translates to a margin of 4.3%. An update on the working
capital. Our net working capital for Q1 was 54 days. Inventory in our warehouse represented 33
days. In quarter 1, the inventory level of our first-year stores was 100 days. In comparison for

FY26.
In April, we sold 552 plans per day. In May and June, this was 557 and 644 plants respectively.
As at end of June, we had around 2 lakh active clients. Additionally, we would like to inform
that the capex proposals as approved by the Board has been put on hold by the company. We
would evaluate and later inform, update the market on the utilization of the fund on the balance
sheet.
That concludes our update for the quarter. I request the host to open the line for questions.
Moderator: We have our first question from line of Sudarshan Agarwal from Axis Capital.
Sudarshan Agarwal: I think you will have a lot of questions on this. But as you said, you have put the capex plans on
hold. But just want to understand the rationale behind kind of putting that strategy forth and
getting it approved. So you have INR40 crores of capex for a food park and oil extraction unit
and another one for the wellness services facility.
So just want to understand what are we thinking in terms of strategically going ahead with these
plans that we have approved? Yes, we have put it on hold, but we have more insights into how
the company is thinking on investing in these aspects going ahead? That would be my first
question.
Madhukar Gangadi: Sudarshan, I'm happy to take you through the whole strategy if Sujit has already not announced
that we are now putting it on hold. I don't think there's any point in discussing it, honestly. There
was a thought and I thought that backward integration would really help, especially in areas
where the products are new, supplies are not easy to find. And sometimes it is just easier to own
the supply chain and all.
So but we have on further deliberation, decided that we'll probably put it on hold definitely put
it on hold for now and come out with a plan on how we'll actually utilize the funds. So...

Sudarshan Agarwal: This would be related to the food park. I guess you will be putting on hold the other one as well?
Or is that investment continue?
