IPO bound MobiKwik made a strong comeback in the fiscal year ending March 2024, with its revenue surging by over 62%. The fintech firm also achieved profitability during FY24, recovering from an Rs 84 crore loss in FY23. That should do no harm at all to its IPO prospects. MobiKwik’s revenue from operations grew to Rs 875 crore in FY24 from Rs 539 crore in FY23, its consolidated annual financial results sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC) shows. Income from the commission on recharge, processing, and interest income on servicing loans, payment gateways, and technologies platforms were the primary sources of revenue for MobiKwik in FY24. In the last fiscal year (FY24), the company expanded its loan offerings through lending partners, resulting in a 3X increase in its lending operational cost to Rs 270 crore as compared to Rs 69 crore in FY23. Its payment gateway also grew 18.4% to Rs 201 crore in FY24. The employee benefits, legal, advertising cum promotional, technology and other overheads pushed the total cost up by 36.4% to Rs 876 crore in FY24 from Rs 642 crore in FY23. See TheKredible for the detailed expense breakup. More than 60% jump in scale and controlled expenditure led MobiKwik to turn black with Rs 14 crore in the last fiscal year as compared to Rs 84 crore loss in FY23. Its ROCE and EBITDA margins improved to 15.21% and 4.16% respectively. On a unit level, it spent Rs 1 to earn a rupee in FY24. In January this year, MobiKwik filed its draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) with the market regulator SEBI to raise Rs 700 crore from its IPO. The firm also reported profitability during the first half of FY24 with Rs 9.5 crore PAT and an operating revenue of Rs 381 crore. This is the second attempt by MobiKwik to go public as the Gurugram-based firm filed its first DRHP in July 2021. However, the firm later abandoned public listing citing weak market conditions. It’s worth highlighting that the firm is looking to raise less than half of what it aimed at from the previous attempt to go public. After filing DRHP, the company also raised Rs 50 crore ($6 million) in debt from BlackSoil Capital. After being overshadowed by Paytm and its storied investors, MobiKwik has done well to achieve profitability well before Paytm is expected to. The firm has often looked to plough a lonely path, sticking to its core offerings even as peers ventured into multiple segments. Now, it has the benefit of legacy as well as a strong balance sheet to build on, something it seems well prepared for, as the founders remain committed to the firm’s future as well. With an IPO finally in sight, the small debt fund raise can also be seen as a sign of confidence and conviction in going through with the IPO process this time.
