Marico shares gain 4% as firm expects double-digit revenue growth in Q2; check all business updates

The company said with a strong performance through the first half of the year, Marico is likely to surpass near-term guidance across key financial parameters.

The FMCG firm in a regulatory filing said the India business continued its strong momentum, delivering another robust quarter with underlying volume growth touching double digits.

“Domestic demand remained resilient during the quarter, even as the operating environment stayed volatile through the period. Looking ahead, we remain optimistic on consumption trends, while closely monitoring the evolving inflationary conditions,” Marico said in a statement.

The company’s international business also delivered a robust quarter with constant currency growth in the teens led by strong performance in Vietnam, the Middle East and South Africa. Bangladesh witnessed a marginal sequential improvement, even as it continued to lap a high base amid persistently elevated inflation.

Among key inputs, Marico said the cost of crude-linked derivatives elevated further, while copra prices remained range-bound at ~35% below peak levels.

“We expect strong acceleration in gross margin on a year-on-year basis led by favourable portfolio mix and tailwind from copra prices. ASP investments increased significantly as we continued to invest behind brand building and growth initiatives. Overall, we expect operating profit to grow in the mid-twenties,” Marico said.
