Spencer's Retail delivered Q4FY26 sales of INR436 crores, up 6% YoY, with margins maintained at 18.8%. The Spencer's format grew 8% YoY to INR380 crores, marking the first growth after several quarters of decline. The rewards membership program has 100,000 members contributing 20-22% of monthly sales, with members shopping 4.5x monthly vs 2.5x for non-members. Online business grew 37% to INR200 crores and is now unit-level breakeven. Store EBITDA doubled from FY25 but hasn't reached the 8% target yet. Nature's Basket underperformed due to inventory and leadership issues, with a new CEO appointed. Management guided for EBITDA breakeven in FY27, with no major other income expected. INR108 crores of debt matures in H1 FY27 at interest rates of 9.5-10.5%.
The company showed turnaround progress with Spencer's returning to growth through membership programs and online expansion, though Nature's Basket needs fixing. Management's FY27 breakeven target gives shareholders a clear timeline, but equity infusion remains on hold until that milestone is achieved.
