Investor Release
Q4 FY26 is our best quarter in the last 12 quarters in terms of
SSSG and Adj. EBITDA growth on the back of strong new
consumer recruitment by KFC.
Q4 FY26
➢ Q4 FY26 is our best quarter in the last 12 quarters in terms of SSSG and Adj. EBITDA growth on the back of strong new consumer recruitment by KFC. This is despite the LPG related availability & inflationary challenges. This uplift in performance is encouraging as we move into the new fiscal.
➢ Sapphire Foods delivered revenue of ₹ 7898 Mn with 11% growth YoY. Revenue for KFC grew by
15% (highest in the last 8 quarters) and Pizza Hut India revenue declined by 6%. Sri Lanka grew revenue by 15% in LKR.
➢ In Q4FY26 we added 19 KFC restaurants, 2 Pizza Hut in India and 3 Pizza Hut in Sri Lanka. Sapphire
Foods total restaurant count was 1,052 as on 31st Mar 2026.
➢ Consol Rest. EBITDA grew by 21% YoY, and margin was at 13.0% (100 bps)
➢ Consol Adj. EBITDA was ₹ 610 Mn, grew 20% YoY and Consol Adj. EBITDA Margin of 7.7%. Consol
EBITDA (₹ 1,249 Mn, 15.8%) grew 10% YoY ( 20 bps)
➢ Consol Adj. PBT before exception (₹ 83 Mn, 1.1%) | Consol PBT before exceptional (₹ -27 Mn, -0.3%) | Consol PBT ₹ -155 Mn, -2.0%. Exceptional items includes impact of ₹62 Mn on account of labour code changes and ₹66 Mn towards merger related cost (ESOP modification for employee retention).
Note: Adj. EBITDA & Restaurant EBITDA is before Ind-AS 116 adjustments

➢ Sapphire KFC SSSG at 4% (6% Ex Chaitra Navratri) was the highest in last 14 quarters. KFC delivered Rest. EBITDA margin of 16.8% ( 110 bps YoY) due to Gross Margin improvement and operating leverage. We have deployed a 2 pronged consumer recruitment strategy to drive DineIn & Takeaway transactions. In evolving chicken consuming markets (North & West), the marketing mix involves recruitment advertising with a strong value call for action (₹99 Chicken Krisper Burger Meal). In more developed chicken consuming markets (South), we have offered disruptive abundant value on select days. Both these initiatives have been supported by incremental marketing spends & gross margin investment and have contributed to the positive SSSG.
➢ Sapphire Pizza Hut SSSG declined by 7%. Rest. EBITDA was negative at 6.0% ( 140 bps
YoY)
➢ In Q4 FY26 our Sri Lanka business delivered 6th consecutive quarter of double digit SSSG (11% LKR) despite availability and inflationary issues on fuel & LPG. Rest. EBITDA came at 14.6% (20 bps YoY) with growth of 15% YoY LKR terms.
FY26
➢ Sapphire Foods delivered 8% revenue growth. Adj. EBITDA declined by 9% at 7.6% ( 150 bps). KFC grew by 11% (revenue of ₹ 21,136 Mn) with Restaurant EBITDA of 16.3% down (100 bps) and opened 73 restaurants during the year (575 total restaurants). Pizza Hut revenue declined by 7% (revenue of ₹ 5,065) with Restaurant EBITDA of -3.3% 570 bps and opened 7 restaurants during the year (341 total restaurants). Sri Lanka business grew by 16% (revenue of LKR 17,340) with Restaurant EBITDA of 14.9% 50 bps) and opened 9 restaurants during the year (136 total restaurants).
➢ The KFC performance driven by the 2-pronged consumer recruitment strategy and the merger announcement with Devyani International which will enable a unified brand strategy especially on Pizza Hut future-proofs the growth of the business in the coming years.
