NoBroker in FY23: Op revenue grows 87% to Rs 609 Cr; losses up by 64%
Medial

Proptech unicorn NoBroker has finally reported its FY23 financial results, nine months past the due date. The company achieved an 86.8% increase in its operating scale for the fiscal year ending March 2023. However, its losses also surged by 63.8% during the same period. NoBroker’s revenue from operations grew by 86.8% to Rs 609 crore in FY23 from Rs 326 crore in FY22, its annual financial statements sourced from the Registrar of Companies show. NoBroker is a real estate platform that connects property owners directly with tenants, removing the need for brokers or agents. The company’s main source of revenue is subscription plans. NoBroker also provides a slew of additional services such as rental agreements, home insurance, and property management. The company also recorded a non-operating income of Rs 74 crore from the interest of fixed deposit and gain on current investments/mutual funds taking its overall income to Rs 683 crore in FY23. The company did not publish the complete expense break up but disclosed that spending on employee benefits formed 36.55% of the overall expenditure. This cost increased 66% to Rs 435 crore in FY23. Other overheads, likely covering advertising, payment gateways, and more, added another Rs 724 crore to costs. This led to the total expenses rising to Rs 1,190 crore in FY23, up from Rs 679 crore in FY22. Evidently, NoBroker’s growth in scale was dwarfed by the increased costs. Subsequently, losses went up by 63.8% to Rs 506 crore in FY23, up from Rs 309 crore in FY22. Its ROCE and EBITDA margins were recorded at -34% and -69.5%, respectively. On a unit level, it spent Rs 1.95 to earn a unit of operating revenue. Last year, NoBroker said that it aimed to touch Rs 1,000 crore revenue mark in FY24. The company is yet to file its audited annual report for the last fiscal year. FY22-FY23 FY23 FY24 EBITDA Margin -80% -69.5% Expense/₹ of Op Revenue ₹2.08 ₹1.95 ROCE -16% -34% NoBroker has raised over $400 million to date including a $210 million unicorn round in November 2021. The firm also raised $5 million in an extended Series E round from search giant Google for its apartment and society management vertical, NoBrokerHood. The vertical directly competes with another Tiger Global-backed company MyGate. NoBroker has been launching a slew of services to build on its brand’s visibility and perceived strength in the property segment. From paperwork, to maintenance to property management, the firm has spread out, but profitability remains elusive. It says something for the challenges in the segment that even the original premise, of zero brokerage may soon be threatened thanks to a new service it has trialed in Bengaluru and Chennai, offering a postpaid plan to landlords seeking tenants, with the fee payable only on closing a deal. That doesn’t sound too different from your normal real estate broker, does it? The property market in India has evolved in interesting ways, with many traditional real estate brokers going hyper local in the face of competition from funded startups. That is where their deep local knowledge and awareness of market dynamics gives them an edge, ensuring their continued survival. According to the startup intelligence platform TheKredible, General Atlantic is the largest shareholder in NoBroker with a 30% stake. Elevation Capital and Tiger Global follow with each holding over 15% of the company.

Third Wave Coffee’s scale grows 4.5X to Rs 144 Cr in FY23
Medial

Coffee chain firm Third Wave Coffee secured $35 million led by homegrown private equity firm Creaegis in September last year. The funding was followed by its notable growth in scale during FY23. Third Wave’s revenue from operations surged 4.5X to Rs 144 crore in the fiscal year ending March 2023 as compared to Rs 32 crore in FY22, its annual financial statements filed with the Registrar of Companies show. Just like StarBucks, Third Wave Coffee offers curated food menus and handpicked coffee, and has over 90 cafes across Hyderabad, Coonoor, Bengaluru, Delhi (NCR), Mumbai, Chandigarh, and Pune. The firm claims to have about 109 stores, of which 50% are operational in Bengaluru. Income from the sale of coffee and food items were the two revenue sources for TWC. The firm also made Rs 2 crore from the interest on bank deposits which took its total income to Rs 147 crore in FY23. For Third Wave Coffee, its employee benefits emerged as the largest cost center accounting for 28.8% of the firm’s overall expenditure. This cost surged 3.8X to Rs 58 crore in FY23 from Rs 15 crore in FY22. Third Wave Coffee’s costs of procurements (coffee and food materials), rent, legal, freight-logistics, marketing, and other overheads took its total expenditure to Rs 201 crore in FY23 from Rs 47 crore in FY22.

Its ROCE and EBITDA margin improved to -38% and -25.9% respectively. On a unit level, TWC spent Rs 1.40 to earn a rupee in FY23. Third Wave has raised over $66 million to date including its $35 million Series C round in September last year. According to the startup data intelligence platform TheKredible, WestBridge Capital is the largest external stakeholder with 32.62% followed by Creaegis. As per Fintrackr’s estimates, its enterprise value to revenue multiple is 8.86X as of FY23. FY22-FY23 FY22 FY23 EBITDA Margin -38% -25.9% Expense/₹ of Op Revenue ₹1.47 ₹1.40 ROCE -47% -38% Towards the end of current fiscal year (FY24), Third Wave Coffee went through a tough phase as it laid off more than 100 employees soon after the $35 million fundraise. The company’s chief executive Sushant Goel also moved to a board role and Rajat Luthra, former head of KFC India and Nepal, was appointed as the new CEO. Goel had 7.89% stake in Third Wave Coffee. It competes with Blue Tokai, Sabko Coffee, Rage Coffee, Slay Coffee, Sleepy Owl, and Seven Beans Co., among others. Its closest competitor Blue Tokai registered Rs 129 crore in revenue with Rs 42 crore loss in FY23. While the mushrooming of coffee chains is not a surprise considering the rapid urbanization and aspirational whiffs around these, the sector has an unusual amount of volatility for the hospitality segment. Coffee chains by default seek the premium end of the market, leaving an opportunity for smaller setups to grab share in the lower price points, and perhaps even eventually add lower priced coffee to their offerings. Doing it all with an aura of cool can be a deadly combination for the newer coffee chains, and something they should watch out for.
