Investor Release
Sapphire Foods delivers a reasonable performance in Q2 FY26:
✓KFC revenue grew 7% (at 10% Ex Navratri impact)
✓While Pizza Hut India revenue declined by 6%, PH Tamil Nadu
(SFIL Exclusive territory grew double digit)
✓Sri Lanka grew handsomely by 18% in LKR
➢ Q2 FY26 has been a reasonable quarter for Sapphire Foods. KFC revenue grew by 7% (at 10% excluding Navratri impact) and while Pizza Hut India revenue declined by 6%, PH Tamil Nadu, Sapphire exclusive territory grew double digit revenue proving the Sapphire PH strategy. Sri Lanka grew handsomely by 18% in LKR, owing to the continued investment in brand innovation, marketing and value to retain our No.1 QSR brand status in the country.
➢ Sapphire Foods delivered revenue of ₹ 7,401 Mn with 7% growth YoY. The SSSG trends for both KFC & Pizza Hut this quarter remained similar as previous quarter except for the negative impact on KFC due to the shift of Navratri days from Q3FY25 to Q2FY26.
➢ In Q2FY26 we added 19 KFC restaurants, 2 Pizza Hut in India and 1 Pizza Hut and 1 Taco Bell in Sri Lanka. Sapphire Foods total restaurant count was 997 as on 30th Sep 2025.
➢ With pride we
inaugurated
the 1000th Sapphire restaurant on 16th Oct 25 at
Gummidipoondi, Tamil Nadu. This is a KFC restaurant.
➢ Consol Rest. EBITDA declined by 12% YoY, and margin was at 11.3% ( 240 bps)
➢ Adj. EBITDA was ₹ 450 Mn, declined 24% YoY (this also has Navratri impact) and Adj. EBITDA Margin of 6.1%. Consol EBITDA (₹ 1,062 Mn, 14.3%) declined 8% YoY ( 230 bps)
Note: Adj. EBITDA & Restaurant EBITDA is before Ind-AS 116 adjustments

➢ Consol PAT (₹ -128 Mn, -1.7%) | Consol Adj. PAT (₹ -36 Mn, -0.5%)
➢ Sapphire KFC SSSG for the quarter was flat (with positive SSTG) prior to start of Navratri (till 21st Sep) and came in at -3% for the quarter. Rest. EBITDA margin came at 13.8% ( 270 bps YoY) due to operating deleverage, lower gross margin and higher delivery mix. During the quarter we continued to activate our EPIC Savers value campaign. Building on the transaction gains seen by this campaign, we have extended the EPIC saver to Q3 and additionally included 3 hero innovations of Chizza, Double Down & Gold Burger under the “KFC Feastival” campaign.
➢ Sapphire Pizza Hut SSSG declined by 8%. Rest. EBITDA was negative at 1.8% ( 590 bps YoY). Excluding additional marketing investments Rest. EBITDA is at break even level. In Tamil Nadu Sapphire & Yum continued to invest in mass media advertising and saw a mid-teens delta in performance (both SSSG & SSTG%) compared to the rest of the country. This performance shows even greater uplift than Q1, proving that revival of consumer interest in the brand is possible through sustained investment in innovation, higher advertising to create awareness and a Dine-In forward Omni-Channel restaurant strategy.
➢ Our Sri Lanka business which operates with the above strategy (Dine-In forward omni-channel, product innovation, & sustained advertising) continued to show strong double digit SSSG (14% LKR) & SSTG growth. Rest. EBITDA came at 15.4% ( 10 bps YoY) with healthy growth of 18% YoY LKR terms.
