Performance Discussion

Key Discussion Themes: Q1 FY23

Volume and Sales

• Highest ever quarterly Beer Volumes; around 70% of 12M FY22 and ~60% of 12M FY2020 (pre-

pandemic year)

• Beer Revenue of Rs. 2,395 million; over 75% of 12M FY22 and over 60% of 12M FY2020 • Our mainline brands; Hunter, Black Fort and Power Cool, accounted for 56%, 50% and 62%,

respectively as compared to 12M FY2022

Realization

• Beer Realization for the quarter was Rs. 506 compared to Rs. 444 in Q1 FY22 and Rs. 462 in FY22;

primarily driven by higher mix of Hunter brand in total volumes

IMFL Realization for the quarter was Rs. 791 compared to Rs. 775 in FY22

Cost

• Cost efficiencies driven by better utilization resulted in improvement in margins • Anticipate some normalization on full year basis due to lower utilization in non-peak season • Lower expenses due to season led demand also supported the margin enhancements

Management Commentary

Since completion of our capex plan, Q1 FY23 was first ever season that we were able to fully capitalize, which is reflected in our stellar performance across all financial and operational metrics. This performance is also a testament to the quality of our product and aligned customer preferences as well as execution capabilities of our team.

During the quarter, despite the prevailing geo-political situation, we were able to report strong margin enhancement driven by various initiatives undertaken by the Company coupled with price hikes taken across our key markets. However, on full year basis, we expect some moderation due to lower utilization of our plants during lean months. On an annualized basis our Karnataka plant operated at peak levels during the quarter. Bhopal and Odisha plants operated at around 70% utilization levels.

We believe the long-term equity story of SOM remains intact. We also remain committed towards enhancing our utilization level across our plants to support robust cash generation and enhancing shareholders wealth.

Mr. JK Arora, Chairman (SOM Group of Companies)
