Company performance
In Q3FYF22, Inox Leisure's revenue growth was strong and in line with expectations, while EBITDA beat estimates. Net loss narrowed down to Rs. 0.3 crore and was ahead of Sharekhan's estimate, led by a strong beat in operating profitability. Inox Leisure Limited (Inox) reported strong revenue growth in Q3FY2022, as cinema halls were fully operational across the country since the end of October 2021. ATP and SPH grew 11% and 20% as compared to pre-pandemic levels of Q3FY2020. EBITDA stood at Rs. 131.8 crore, above ours and the street's estimates as well, aided by strong revenue growth and negotiation of common area maintenance (CAM) and rent up to Q3FY2022-end.
Comments by Sharekhan
About the stock's potential, Sharekhan said, "We expect multiplexes to resume full-fledged operations once Wave-3 subsides. Given a successful vaccination drive in India, a strong movie pipeline, pent-up demand, improving occupancy because of a rising fully vaccinated eligible population, and strong screen addition in FY2022, we believe that the revenue recovery of Inox leisure would be strong in FY2023E. The company added 13 screens in Q3FY2022, taking total addition of 41 screens in CY2021. The company has added 24 screens till date in FY2022. The company will add 17 screens in the remaining period of FY2022 as 80% of the work has been completed."
About the company
Incorporated in 1999, Inox Leisure is one of the largest multiplex operators in India. The company currently operates 158 properties (667 screens and over 1.50 lakhs seats) located in 70 cities across India. Inox Leisure is the only multiplex operator having a diverse presence across India. The company accounts for a 20% share of multiplex screens in India and ~11% share of domestic box office collections. The company would continue to add 80-100 screens per year going ahead once the situation normalizes.
