March 2022 has been a soft quarter for Titan Company, amid headwinds such as Omicron virus, weak consumer sentiment in the jewellery business and emergence of macro pressures amid geo-political tensions.
The company’s jewellery business reported 4% decline in sales, despite ~6% gold inflation over the year-ago quarter. This was due to a sharp rise in gold prices and weak consumer sentiment. Customer conversions and ticket sizes grew marginally but were offset by the slight decline in walk-ins. Overall number of jewellery stores (Tanishq, Mia and Zoya) increased by 16 sequentially to total stores of 444.
Watches & wearables clocked sales growth of 12% over the year-ago quarter, amid strong traction in the Titan brand across all offline channels. Growth of this section was aided by new launches.
Eyewear clocked sales growth of 5%, led by sunglasses and frames.
CaratLane clocked a sales growth of 51%. Nine more stores were added in this format, taking the total to 138.
Company’s EBITDA growth is pegged at 9.6% on a year-on-year basis.
Profit After Tax (PAT) could grow 8.2% over the year-ago quarter.
