Toothsi-parent MakeO’s revenue spikes 2X in FY23, posts Rs 220 Cr loss
Medial

Toothsi and skincare brand Skinnsi-parent MakeO has managed over two-fold growth in its operating scale in FY23. Significantly, the company also controlled its losses which grew around 20% in the last fiscal. Though the operating income is yet to come close to its losses. MakeO’s revenue from operations surged 2.15X to Rs 168 crore in the fiscal year ending March 2023 from Rs 78 crore in FY22, its consolidated financial statements filed with the Registrar of Companies show. Toothsi Founded in 2018 by Arpi Mehta Shah, Pravin Shetty, Manjul Jain and Anirudh Kal, MakeO started as an aligner brand Toothsi. Later, it merged its flagship brands, including Skinnsi. Under the two brands, the firm provides dental, skin, and hair treatment solutions. The sale of tooth aligners formed 69% of the total operating revenue which spiked 75.8% to Rs 116 crore in FY23. The rest of the revenue came from the sale of Skinsi services which include facial, anti-aging, acne reduction, and other skin treatments. See TheKredible for the detailed revenue breakup. Employee benefits emerged as the largest cost center for MakeO, accounting for 32.1% of the overall expenditure. This cost grew 76.4% to Rs 127 crore in FY23. This includes Rs 21 crore as ESOP costs. MakeO’s consultant fees which include scanning and therapist charges grew 15.4% to Rs 60 crore in FY23. The firm’s procurement, payment gateway, marketing, rent, legal /professional, and other overheads took its overall expenditure up by 50.2% to Rs 395 crore in FY23.

FY22-FY23 FY22 FY23 EBITDA Margin -218% -115.4% Expense/₹ of Op Revenue ₹3.37 ₹2.35 ROCE -276% -135% MakeO has raised over $90 million across rounds including its latest fundraising of $16 million led by 360 One Asset. According to the data intelligence platform TheKredible, Eight Road Ventures is the largest stakeholder in the company followed by Think Investments. While controlling its losses might seem like a positive here, in its business , it might also point to the high fixed costs that are truly sticky. That would imply a need for a massive improvement in topline for MakeO, something that doesn’t look easy by any stretch in a fiercely competitive market. Especially for Skinnsi. We believe this is a firm that is definitely not out of the woods yet despite improving financials.

Co-working space solutions provider Table Space has demonstrated solid financial performance in the last fiscal year as the company’s operating scale grew over 97% and neared the Rs 680 crore revenue mark. At the same time, the Bengaluru-based firm remained profitable during FY23. Table Space’s revenue from operations jumped to Rs 678.5 crore in the fiscal year ending March 2023 from Rs 344 crore in FY22, its consolidated financial statements filed with the RoC show. Founded by Amit Banerji in 2017, Table Space provides customized coworking spaces and claims to have a capacity of more than 10 million square feet with 75 plus centers in over 7 cities including Bengaluru. Rental and lease income formed 75% of the total operating revenue which saw a growth of 69% to Rs 512 crore in FY23 from Rs 303 crore in FY22. Facility management, common area maintenance, and sale of food and beverages were some other revenue drivers for the company. Table Space also earned Rs 90 crore from non-operating activities which tallied its total income to Rs 768.5 crore during the last fiscal year (FY23). See TheKredible for the detailed revenue breakup. Its finance and depreciation costs, concerning the lease accounted for 59% of the overall expenditure which surged 2X to Rs 414 crore in FY23. Table Space’s employee benefits, repair cum maintenance, advertising, legal professional, rent and other overheads catalyzed its overall expense up by 118% to Rs 703.8 crore in FY23 from Rs 321.6 crore in FY22. Head to TheKredible for the complete expense breakdown. The decent scale and two-fold growth in other income helped Table Space to increase its profits marginally to Rs 45.9 crore in FY23 from Rs 44.5 crore in FY22. Its ROCE and EBITDA margin stood at 9% and 62.3%. The company spent Rs 1.04 to earn a rupee in FY23. Table Space has raised around $330 million across several rounds including a $300 million round from Hillhouse. According to the startup data intelligence platform TheKredible, Hillhouse is the largest stakeholder with 31.49%. Its core team including Amit Banerji, Karan Chopra, Srinivas Prasad, and Narendra Kumar Kamaraju commands 56.48% of the company. The company competes with the likes of Smartworks, Awfis, IndiQube, WeWork and others. Table Space continues the trend of co-working platforms delivering strong growth, even as it has seen margins shrink at the same time. But being profitable matters, and the firm is poised to benefit all the more from the growth momentum thanks to that. However, the high income from non operating activities might also not be sustainable, which will put further pressure on the bottomline. All out growth versus well considered growth is still a much better problem to have than growth versus survival, however.

B2B consumer goods startup ApnaKlub raised $16 million led by TrueScale Capital and ICMG partners in January this year. And, it looks like the company’s growth numbers attracted the two backers: Its gross scale spiked nearly six-fold in the fiscal year ending March 2023. ApnaKlub’s gross revenue grew to Rs 278 crore in FY23 from Rs 47 crore in FY22, its financial statements sourced from RoC show. Founded in 2020, Apnaklub connects retailers, kirana stores, and fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) brands via its wholesale partners. The sale of products was the primary source of revenue for ApnaKlub. Its personal care products top the collection charts followed by beverages, home care, processed foods, and others. The company also has an income of Rs 3 crore from the interest on long-term investments (non-operating) in FY23. See TheKredible for the detailed revenue breakup. In line with fellow B2B wholesale startups, the cost of procurement of goods turned out to be the largest cost center forming 82% of the overall expenditure. In sync with scale, this cost surged 5.8X to Rs 275 crore in FY23 from Rs 47 crore in FY22. ApnaKlub’s employee benefits, rent, advertising cum promotional, freight, contract, legal, and other overheads pushed its total expenditure to Rs 332 crore in FY23 from Rs 63 crore in FY22. Head to TheKredible for the detailed expense breakup. ApnaKlub bled heavily in pursuit of growth, leading to a 4.6X increase in losses to Rs 56 crore in FY23 as compared to Rs 12 crore in FY22. Its ROCE and EBITDA margins were recorded at -50% and -17.4% respectively. On a unit level, it spent Rs 1.19 to earn a rupee in FY23. FY22-FY23 FY22 FY23 EBITDA Margin -32% -17.4% Expense/₹ of Op Revenue ₹1.34 ₹1.19 ROCE -52% -50% While ApnaKlub might be on a path to breakeven only at a Rs 1000 crore plus turnover, the higher share of personal care products might allow a faster path to profitability, considering the better margins in that segment. Having said that, it is no secret that the actual marketplace for this segment is a battlefield that has left most players bloodied, if not fatally wounded. ApnaKlub must be doing something different to convince investors to bet on it in the current funding environment, and just for that, the firm needs to be tracked carefully for the next steps on its journey.

For the six-year-old firm, employee benefits accounted for 54% of total expenses, decreasing by 12% to Rs 201.7 crore in FY24. This includes Rs 38.5 crore as ESOP cost which is non-cash in nature.

With enough dry powder to last at least another two years or more, especially if its cost controls continue to succeed at reducing losses, Classplus could be in a very good space by FY25. The offering is not as sensitive to the vagaries of the economy and as the universe of beneficiaries grows, even marketing expenses or acquisition costs will drop, if service is good. The company is also going to be building a deeper moat with higher numbers, securing its position better. At Rs 12,000 per annum or thereabouts on average for a ‘teacherpreneur’, disruptors will not find it easy to offer more for less.
