Management Comment

Commenting on the Company performance , Mr. Ketan Patel, Chairman & Managing Director of Creative Newtech said:

“I am glad to say that we have begun the new fiscal year on a strong note. While markets continue to recover from macro-economic volatility and geo-political tensions, demand for several products has continued to grow. The shift towards digital technologies continues to drive demand. Our agile business model, selective strategies and niche portfolio helped us navigate this period successfully.

In the quarter ended June 2023, our consolidated total income grew 93.15% YoY to Rs. 471.34 cr. EBITDA and PAT increased 29.37% and 45.98% YoY to Rs. 9.91 cr and Rs. 5.88 cr, respectively. This growth was mainly driven by demand for products from brands like Samsung, Honeywell, Cooler Master and View Sonic, among others. A change in the product mix had a bearing on the margins. We are selectively focusing on key niche brands where we see scope for growth while leveraging our widespread network. During this period, our EB segment performed well, with revenue growing substantially. Our recent brand additions, Cricut and Razor, are gaining traction in the market. In line with our strategy, we continuously manage our brand portfolio to keep it relevant to ongoing and anticipated consumer trends. Our focus remains on keeping a lean business model and ensuring long-term, sustainable growth for all stakeholders.

I would like to thank the entire team for their dedication, which drives the Company forward.”
