GRM Overseas Reported Consolidated H1FY24 Financial Results

Total Revenue at Rs. 524 Crore in H1FY24 EBITDA Margin at 8.5% in H1FY24, down by 50 bps YoY

Panipat, Haryana, 16 November 2023: GRM Overseas Limited (herein referred to as “GRM”), one of India’s leading basmati rice exporters and a growing consumer staples player, announced the financial results for the Q2 ended 30th September 2023.

Commenting on H1FY24 and recent update: Mr. Atul Garg. Managing Director said:

“In H1FY24, we witnessed a performance drop in revenue of 11% compared to the previous performance, this was due to cyclone led disruptions at Gujarat Port in June, 2023 and also on 25[th] August, 2023 the Government of India imposed restrictions on exports of basmati rice below USD 1,200 per ton to restrict possible “illegal” shipments of white non-basmati rice in the garb of premium Basmati rice, which impacted few shipments. The Government has subsequently relaxed the minimum export price restriction to USD 950 per ton, which will favorably support basmati rice exporters in the coming months. This also led to a cascading effect on EBITDA margin which saw a drop on sequential basis and stood at 8.5% for H1 FY24.

On the positive front, our domestic brand 10X, scaled an impressive milestone and clocked a growth of 19% YoY in H1FY24. Our commitment to innovation, customer satisfaction, and operational efficiency continues to drive our success in the market. We are hopeful of further improving our growth and margin prospects in the upcoming quarters with introduction of new products with better margin profile and improved efficiencies.

During the current quarter, in an endeavour to increase our product basket, five new items namely Besan, Daliya, Maida, Poha, and Sooji have been added under the “10x Shakti Brand”. Furthermore, the company is exploring new food products with volumes and high margins in the forthcoming quarters, to strengthen our position in both General Trade and modern retail outlets.

Simultaneously, the company is strengthening its sales force and opening new geographies to cater to Tier II Tier III cities and towns. These new geographies will allow us to connect with new customers and increasing our top lines well as in developing regional products. As a result, going forward we foresee an increase in our domestic branded business.”
