Medial

Amazon Transportation Services reported a marginal growth in its revenue during the fiscal year ending March 2024. At the same time, the company reduced its losses by over 6% during the same period. AmazonTransport Services aka ATSโ€™s revenue from operations grew 7.6% to Rs 4,888.9 crore in FY24 from Rs 4,543.3 crore in FY23, its standalone financial statement sourced from Tofler shows. Apart from operational income, ATSโ€™s other income spiked 66% to Rs 57.3 crore in FY24 from Rs 34.5 crore in the previous fiscal year. This brought the total income for FY24 to Rs 4,946.2 crore. Amazon Transportation Services provides logistics and delivery solutions, supporting Amazon's e-commerce operations. Its services include order pickup, sorting, and last-mile delivery across India. It makes money via offering aforementioned services to Amazon India. The companyโ€™s total expenses excluding depreciation stood at Rs 4,690.8 crore in FY24 from Rs 4,310.2 crore in FY23, marking an 8.8% rise. Depreciation expenses, however, decreased by 10.2%, standing at Rs 313.7 crore for FY24, down from Rs 349.4 crore in FY23. Despite the growth in revenue, ATS managed to reduce its losses by 6.3% to Rs 80.3 crore in FY24 from Rs 85.7 crore in FY23. Its outstanding losses reached Rs 469.8 crore as of the end of FY24. Other equity components, including the share-based compensation reserve, increased 26% to Rs Rs 490.4 crore in the last fiscal year.

WheelsEye narrows losses by 71% to Rs 39 Cr in FY24 Logistics SaaS firm WheelsEye experienced slower growth since FY22, with revenue growth flattening in FY24. The company reported a marginal 7% increase in revenue for the fiscal year ending March 2024 but successfully reduced its losses by 71% during the same period. WheelsEyeโ€™s revenue from operations grew to Rs 218.4 crore in the last fiscal year, from Rs 203.8 crore in FY23, according to its standalone financial statement sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC). WheelsEye provides trucking solutions for businesses and software, GPS tracking, and FASTag solutions for truck fleet operators. Revenue from the sale of services (trucking service) increased by 18.9% to Rs 129.6 crore, while revenue from the sale of products (software) grew by 7.85% to Rs 57.7 crore. Income from other sources added another Rs 31 crore. The company made an additional Rs 35 crore from interest income which pushed its total Income to Rs 253 crore in FY24. WheelsEye's largest cost component, employee benefit expenses, dropped by 28.72% to Rs 135 crore. The cost of materials increased slightly by 3.43% to Rs 93.6 crore, while commissions paid decreased by 9.64%, standing at Rs 7.5 crore. Miscellaneous expenses for the last fiscal year amounted to Rs 56.9 crore. In the end, WheelsEye managed to reduce its overall expenses by 17.23%, bringing them down to Rs 293 crore in FY24. This cost optimization contributed to a 71% reduction in net loss, with losses narrowing to Rs 39 crore in FY24. The company also reported improved financial ratios, with its ROCE improving to -44.85% and EBITDA margin rising to -13.76%. Cost efficiency improved as well, with the company spending Rs 1.34 to earn a rupee in FY24. On the asset side, WheelsEye recorded Rs 186 crore in current assets for FY24, which included Rs 142 crore in cash and bank balances. According to the startup data intelligence platform, TheKredible, Wheelseye's parent entity is situated in the USA holding 99.9% of the Indian entity with the name Wheelseye Technology INC. The reduction in losses would be a welcome development at WheelsEye, probably something that has caused the slowdown in growth as well. The effort indicates a push to seek public market access perhaps, even as the firm remains well placed to seek growth again soon. In the past year, seemingly improving efficiency in logistics has led to a slowdown in growth within many firms in the category, something that should correct soon for WheelsEye as well.

FarEye narrows losses by 63% amidst modest growth in FY24

FarEye narrows losses by 63% amidst modest growth in FY24 FarEye recorded only modest double-digit year-on-year growth in operating revenues for the fiscal year ending March 2024. However, it significantly reduced its losses, cutting them by nearly two-thirds during the same period. FarEyeโ€™s revenue from operations rose by 13% to Rs 157 crore in FY24 from Rs 139 crore in FY23, according to its consolidated financial statements recently filed with the Registrar of Companies (RoC). This marks a sharp slowdown from the 40% year-on-year growth the Tiger Global-backed company reported in FY23. FarEye provides software solutions to manage large logistics platformsโ€™ supply chain and delivery across manufacturing, e-commerce et al. The sale of logistics services was the sole source of revenue for the company. The cost structure saw a dramatic reset as employee benefit expenses fell 39% to Rs 153 crore in FY24. Information technology expenses decreased by 6% to Rs 46 crore, while legal charges and advertising expenses shrank by 43% and 60% to Rs 23 crore and Rs 8 crore, respectively. Other overheads also contracted by 22% to Rs 39 crore in FY24. Overall, FarEyeโ€™s total expenses dropped by 34% to Rs 269 crore in FY24, from Rs 410 crore in the previous fiscal year. The stringent cost controls helped the company to bring down its losses by 63% to Rs 89 crore in FY24, a sharp improvement from Rs 243 crore loss in FY23. Its ROCE and EBITDA margin improved to -26.82% and -45.83% respectively. On a unit basis, FarEye spent Rs 1.71 to earn a rupee of revenue in FY24, a huge improvement from Rs 2.95 in FY23. The Noida-based firmโ€™s current assets stood at Rs 372 crore, out of which Rs 305 crore are in cash and bank balance. According to TheKredible, FarEye has raised a total of approx $152 million of funding till date, having TCV, Fundamentum, Eight Roads Ventures and Elevation Capital as its lead investors. The companyโ€™s co-founders Kushal Nahata and Gautam Kumar together own 13% of the company. An underperformer by any stretch, FarEyeโ€™s struggles will worry investors who invested on the promise of opportunities in the booming logistics sector. With its focus on last mile solutions, FarEye has picked a particularly promising niche to target, with over 30% of costs linked to the last mile delivery. However, costs have been consistently high due to a global footprint, and sales have simply not grown as fast as it would have wished. How FY25 goes, considering global disruptions in markets and consequently, with FarEyeโ€™s clients both present and potential, is anyoneโ€™s guess. We wouldnโ€™t be expecting a sharp change in trajectory anytime soon therefore. With adequate cash balances, the firm certainly has no reason to stress, but another ordinary year will mean it has not really made a worthwhile impact even after a dozen years in the market. That will affect the possibility of further backing as well as valuations in no small way. FarEye needs to see the risks getting closer.
