Wife of Ace Investor Madhusudan Kela-Backed Hotel Stock Rallies Over 8 Per cent in Morning Session – Reports Profit Against Loss, Expands Operating Margins

The company’s shares have delivered an impressive return of over 60 per cent to its shareholders.

This Small-Cap company is India's leading branded hotel ownership and asset management platform, holding long-term management agreements with Marriott, IHG, and Hyatt. Today, the company’s stock showcased a significant rise in the opening session, even as the Nifty slipped and crossed Friday’s low point. Eventually, the Nifty managed to recover and is currently trading in the green.  The reason for this price rally on the shares of Samhi Hotels Ltd is probably due to the stellar Quarterly Results presented by the company.

Financial Performance

As per quarterly results, Samhi Hotels Ltd in Sep 2024 reported a revenue of Rs 266 crore compared to Rs 220 crore representing a growth of around 20.80 per cent YoY. The company posted an operating profit of Rs 92 crore with a margin of around 35 per cent compared to Rs 51 crore with a margin of 23 per cent. In the current quarter, both the operating profit and margins have expanded. The company’s net profit stood at Rs 13 crore for the period compared to a loss of Rs 88 crore same quarter last year. This could be the potential trigger for the price rally.

Looking at the annual performance, the company generated a revenue of Rs 957 crore in FY24 compared to Rs 739 crore in FY23 representing a growth of 29.63 per cent YoY. The operating profit for FY24 was Rs 267 crore compared to Rs 238 crore in FY23. The company reported a net loss of Rs 235 crore compared to Rs 339 crore.
