FabHotels gross revenue crosses Rs 550 Cr in FY24, losses widen 23% Casa2 Stays, the parent firm of FabHotels, reported a 34% increase in gross revenue for the fiscal year ending March 2024. However, its loss rose by 23%, driven by a twofold increase in employee benefit expenses. FabHotels’ gross revenue increased to Rs 552 crore in FY24 from Rs 412 crore in the previous fiscal year (FY23), according to its financial statement sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC). The revenue for FY23 appears different this year as it marks FabHotels’ first set of financial statements prepared in compliance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS). FabHotels, a budget hotel chain with over 600 properties across more than 50 cities in India, generated 99.4% of its gross revenue from accommodation bookings. Gross revenue increased by 33.35% to Rs 549 crore in FY24. Meanwhile, other revenue sources contributed Rs 3.3 crore. The company also recorded an additional income of Rs 11 crore from interest on deposits and liabilities written off, which pushed its overall revenue to Rs 563.6 crore in the last fiscal year. Accommodation expenses remained the largest cost component forming 74% of the overall cost, which grew by 32% to Rs 435 crore. FabHotels’ employee costs shot up 2X to Rs 92 crore in FY24. This includes Rs 15 crore as ESOP cost. Its commission expenses rose by 8% to Rs 27 crore, while other costs added Rs 34 crore. Overall, total expenses grew by 38.5% to Rs 588 crore in FY24 from Rs 424.7 crore in FY23. The two-fold jump in employee benefits led FabHotel to increase its losses by 23% to Rs 114 crore in FY24, compared to Rs 93 crore in FY23. Its ROCE and EBITDA Margin were recorded at -84.09% and -19.52%, respectively. On a unit basis, the company spent Rs 1.06 to earn a rupee of revenue. At the end of FY24, FabHotel’s current assets stood at Rs 172 crore, including cash and bank balances worth Rs 94 crore. FabHotel has raised around $70 million to date. Accel is the largest external stakeholder with 21.39% followed by Goldman Sachs. FabHotels competes directly with Treebo and Bloom Hotels. In FY24, Treebo surpassed Rs 100 crore in revenue, while Bloom Hotels achieved a 73.6% increase in operational revenue to Rs 250 crore and recorded a profit of Rs 14 crore. FabHotels, with its budget offerings and reach, faces a moment of truth to deliver sustainable profitability that can power future growth. The hospitality sector leaves very little margin for major misses now. FabHotels has placed its bets, with little leeway to change much now. Judgement awaits in the next few months and year, perhaps.
