Aashvi Shah: Good evening, everyone. This is Aashvi Shah from the Investor Relations
team at Adfactors PR. On behalf of TBO Tek Limited, I would like to
welcome you all to the Earnings Conference Call for Q1 FY27.

I will now hand over the call to Mr. Gaurav Bhatnagar for his opening

Gaurav Bhatnagar: Thank you, Aashvi, and good evening, everyone. Welcome to our Q1 FY27
Earnings Call. We uploaded our shareholder letter on our website
yesterday and I hope all of you have had a chance to go through it.
Before we jump into Q&A, we wanted to highlight a few salient features
from this quarter:
The first one, I think this was by far the toughest quarter for the company
in the last two years. The increasing disturbances in the Middle East
caused severe disruption in travel across the globe and the disruption
expanded far beyond Middle East. Markets like India and Europe were also
impacted because travel from East to West and West to East was disrupted
because it is heavily reliant on the Middle East carriers. The airfares are

also very high. In spite of that, the company has delivered growth both on
top line and bottom line and we are very proud of it.
It has started to show the fact that the diversity of source markets that we
operate in is a big factor in building resilience in our business model. Given
that no one country or no one region heavily dominates, our top line helps
us cushion effects like the ones that happened in the last quarter.
A couple of other things that have helped us are that we were, as you all
know, investing heavily into market development in Europe and that
helped tremendously. Even in a very tough quarter, travel in Europe was
generally impacted as well but we still delivered 24% YoY growth in
Europe.
The other thing that is helping the business, especially looking forward,
depending on how long this crisis lasts, is the increasing saliency of North
America. With the acquisition of Classic Vacations, North America is
starting to be almost a quarter of our hotel GTV, which is substantial and
we believe we will be able to create growth plans over there and that
saliency will help us because that corridor, the North America-Europe
corridor, is far more resilient compared to other travel corridors at this
point in time.
The final highlight purely on the numbers was that the Middle East, in spite
of the massive crisis within the region, delivered flat numbers. It delivered
1% growth in constant currency which is very commendable and full
marks to our team for delivering that. So, net-net, our view is that the
expanded investments that we made in retrospect were very timely
because that helped us cushion a potential degrowth that could have
happened in this quarter given our heavy reliance on the Middle East
market, but Europe came through and the acquisition of Classic was also
very timely because it has given us an entry into a much more resilient
corridor.
The second thing to highlight for this quarter is that operating leverage
was quite visible. Our bottom-line EBITDA margins grew significantly

July 30, 2026
faster than our GP or revenue margins. You all know we have been
promising operating leverage, and it started to feel a bit mythical because
Europe, we have been promising for some time.
We were expecting to see it in Q4 but unfortunately the war broke out in
that quarter. But we are happy with the fact that Q1, there is a clear
demonstration of operating leverage and we expect, given that margins
have expanded even on moderate top line growth given the war situation,
our expectation is that as top line growth normalizes when things come
back to normal, the bottom-line growth should accelerate further.
The final point we want to highlight is that you would have observed that
we have shared numbers in constant currency as well. This was feedback
from some of you in the last call as well and secondly, this specific quarter
was very unusual, and you would see numbers both in INR and in constant
currency. There was almost an 11% gap in our hotel GTV when we looked
at in constant currency versus INR and which is leading to significantly
higher growth numbers if you looked at INR standalone. In the interest of
transparency, we have started reporting numbers in constant currency as
well.
We should also highlight this was the first quarter when such a significant
gap happened. For example, even last quarter when the rupee started to
depreciate, there was only a 3% gap in hotel GTV in constant currency
versus INR. So, we did not find it significant enough to report separately
but given the steep depreciation that has happened on a YoY basis, we have
started reporting numbers in constant currency as well.
With that, we will take a pause and open for questions.
Aashvi Shah: Thank you, sir. We will now begin the Q&A session. I would request all
participants to raise their virtual hands and introduce themselves and the
firm they represent. The first question is from Mr. Karan Uppal. Karan,
