Westlife Foodworld, which operates McDonald's restaurants in West and South India, reported Q4 FY25 revenue of Rs. 6.03 billion, up 7.3% year-on-year. Same-store sales growth (SSSG) was modest at 0.7%, though adjusted for the leap-year effect it came in at 1.7%. Operating EBITDA rose 3.2% YoY to Rs. 795 million, with margins slipping to 13.2% from year-ago levels due to operating deleverage. Cash profit after tax stood at Rs. 469 million (7.8% of sales). The company added 18 new restaurants in the quarter, taking the total to 438 across 69 cities. Digital sales contribution climbed to 75% of total sales, with app downloads exceeding 41 million. Management reiterated its goal of reaching 18–20% Operating EBITDA margin by 2027.
Results are broadly steady but show margin pressure — revenue growth is healthy, but SSSG is weak and EBITDA margins contracted ~50 bps, suggesting near-term cost challenges. Continued store expansion and a strong digital push are positives for long-term growth.
