Samhi Hotels delivered strong FY26 results despite multiple headwinds including geopolitical conflicts and GST regulatory changes. Total income stood at INR 1,279 crores (12.3% growth), with PBT before exceptional items at INR 165 crores, up 89% YoY. Net debt reduced by INR 516 crores to INR 1,450 crores, translating to a net debt-to-EBITDA of 3x. The company generated approximately INR 300 crores of free cash flow after interest and lease payments. Management outlined a robust growth pipeline including W Hyderabad (FY27), Tribute Bangalore and Westin Bangalore (FY28-30), and a new Marriott hotel in Chennai, all largely funded through internal cash generation and capital recycling. The company also completed the acquisition of a 70% stake in RARE India (73 hotels, 1,000 rooms) for experiential leisure expansion.
The company is well-positioned to compound free cash flow from FY27 onwards, targeting INR 3,000+ crores cumulative FCF over FY27-FY31. With leverage at 3x and a clear path to 2.5x, plus upcoming high-quality upscale hotel openings, Samhi appears to be transitioning from a deleveraging phase to a cash generation and shareholder return phase.
