2. Operating & Financial Performance

Despite facing headwinds such as a global recession, the Russia-Ukraine war, volatility in raw material prices, high inflation rates, and increase in Covid-19 cases in many countries, your Company has reported identical numbers this year. The Company''s total revenue for the current Financial Year 2022-23 is C2398 crores, compared to C2313 crores in the previous Financial Year 2021-22. Moreover, the Company''s EBITDA and PAT for the current Financial Year are C233 crores and C137 crores, respectively, whereas they were C490 crores and C338 crores in the previous Financial Year. The Company''s profitability was significantly impacted by the volatility in raw material prices. However, to maintain stability in pricing and diversify the supply chain, the Company has strengthened its relationship with suppliers and negotiated long-term contracts with multiple suppliers for raw materials.

We are grateful that our Company had a satisfactory performance in 2022-23, and we are optimistic that by product differentiation through branding, celebrity endorsements and enhanced quality 2023-24 will be a better year.

Lux, being one of the biggest players in the branded innerwear industry, had been proactive about the changing consumer-preferences and is responding by creating innovative and trendy product lines and maintaining a healthy balance between offline and online channels. Company is expanding its e-commerce presence and has partnered with top e-commerce companies such as Amazon, Flipkart, Myntra and Ajio and is currently shipping more than 4,000 orders daily. Going forward, the Company aims to generate about C100 crores of top line coming in from the online channel.

The innerwear garments industry has few leaders and the Company stands out amongst them with its expansion-distribution network consisting of 19 warehouses in 12 states, 2 lakh multi brand stores and 9 EBOs (Exclusive Brand Outlets), 1170 dealers'' network and 11 Depots driving faster distribution in India. The export network of 46 countries has expanded significantly, with the inclusion of 24 new countries over the past 5 years and the ambitious goal is to target a total of 60 countries by 2025.

As the Company has expanded beyond its origins as an innerwear-only manufacturer and diversified into athleisure and outwear, entered the southern region of India, and broadened its product range to include women''s innerwear and outerwear, as well as children''s clothing, it has become a well-rounded player in the market. The Company has also recognized the potential of the women''s wear market segment and has made a deliberate effort to expand its presence in this space. This has been achieved through a combination of strategies, including leveraging e-commerce platforms and other disruptive channels. The Company actively engages in and makes contributions to various industry-level research and development (R&D) initiatives, including the initiatives taken by Hosiery association. However, there is no specific allocation of funds dedicated to these initiatives. The Company recognizes the importance of investing in automated equipments over standard equipments that improves efficiency of our operations and has invested C17 crores on advanced machinery from Italy, Germany, and Singapore.

The Company is achieving new heights by strengthening its brand with the support of brand ambassadors such as Vijay Deverakonda, Jacqueline Fernandez, Salman Khan, Sourav Ganguly, Virat Kohli, Varun Dhawan, Boman Irani, and Taapsee Pannu. Furthermore, the Company is expanding into the premium market with ONE8, which has independent and dedicated manufacturing facilities and the backing of Virat Kohli. Additionally, it has sponsored the KKR team in the IPL to increase the brand''s global visibility and reputation. The Company allocates an average of 8% of its revenues to branding initiatives, with a return of C12.74 for every rupee spent on advertising and publicity. Also, Company is expanding women''s wear segment into a complete range including inner wear and athleisure through its brand ''Lyra.''

Company has taken a multi-faceted approach to achieve success. By focusing on brand building activities, the Company has been able to strengthen its product portfolio and differentiate itself from competitors. Additionally, by implementing the latest technology in manufacturing processes, the Company is likely able to produce goods more efficiently and effectively than competitors, which can help lower costs and improve product quality. On the supply chain side, the Company''s large distribution network is a

core strength that likely allows it to reach customers quickly and efficiently. This can help the Company respond to changes in demand and minimize inventory costs.

All factories worked efficiently during the year. Safety measures and processes have been installed and improved upon at all factories and work sites.

2. Operating & Financial Performance

The financial year 2020-21 has been the most volatile and challenging year. Covid-19 changed almost all the aspect of human lives in ways never imagined. The economic toll from the pandemic was unprecedented. Operational challenges mounted due to restricted movement and disrupted supply lines. As the Covid-19 cases continued to rise exponentially, the economy declined sharply. The Union Budget 2021 focused on regaining the growth momentum in the economy through several measures including keeping tax rates stable and enhancing investments in infrastructure.

The business performance in the financial year 202122 is expected to be better with continued favorable progress on vaccination rollout. Further the lockdown restrictions are likely to be more targeted and regionally focused compared to the national lockdown implemented last year, and companies are better prepared to follow protocols, respond to restrictions and minimize loss of operations. The Company has delivered a credible performance inspite of COVID-19 lockdown during the financial year. The Company has been growing continuously as targeted and working towards all the financial parameters including working capital requirements which has been substantially reduced and as a result now the company is net debt free. Amidst this challenging time, the Company has displayed resilience and shown strong performance. The Company delivered double-digit growth in bottom line while maintaining steady top line growth.

The company has posted robust performance for the year ended March 31, 2021 despite Covid-19 Pandemic induced challenges. Also, with the completion of merger, we have reported the merged financials for Financial Year 2020-21 as well as Financial Year 2019-20. The revenues grew by 17.36% to H1,964.86 crores. The EBITDA and PAT were at H392.69 crores and H269.38 crores respectively, registering a stellar growth of 42.67% and 51.98% respectively. The EBITDA margins have seen a significant improvement by 355 basis points to 19.99% majorly on account of an increased share of value-added products and overall

cost efficiency measures including reduction in advertisement expenditure. We have also seen a healthy improvement in PAT Margins by 312 basis points to 13.71%.

During the year under review, the plants of the Company were closed in the month of April, 2020 and resumed its operations from May, 2020 and gradually restored to normal level. All the plants are adhering to all requisite norms of social distancing, health and safety measures to control the spread of Covid-19 pandemic.
