Chairman's Speech

INNOVATE, THRIVE, EXCEL: DOLLAR'S STORY UNFOLDS

Dear shareholders,

We are thrilled to share that Dollar Industries Limited has reached its all-time highest quarterly and annual income! These phenomenal results demonstrate our unyielding dedication to excellence, fostering innovation, and ensuring customer satisfaction in an ever-changing industry environment.

Net profit soars amid increased demand

In FY 2023-24, Dollar experienced a remarkable upsurge driven by burgeoning demand for our products. Our total income for FY 2023-24 soared to INR 1,577 Crore, marking a substantial 12.7% increase compared to the previous year, perfectly aligned with our target revenue growth of 11%-12%. Additionally, our total volume surged by over 21% in FY 2023-24, and our net profit surged by an impressive 71.7% to

INR 90 Crore.

Project Lakshya drives record quarterly income

Dollar has emerged significantly more potent in the face of the challenges encountered in FY 2022-23. Stabilising raw material prices and resolving high-cost inventory concerns have led to a remarkable turnaround. Our gross profit margin has surged by 256 basis points year-on-year, reaching an impressive 32.2% in FY 2023-24. The early onset of Eid and the resounding success of Project Lakshya have been pivotal in driving a robust and promising fourth quarter, resulting in our highest-ever quarterly income.

Stabilising raw material prices and resolving high-cost inventory concerns have led to a remarkable turnaround. Our gross profit margin has surged by 256 basis points year-on-year, reaching an impressive 32.2% in FY 2023-24."

Through our Lakshya project, we aim to expand our market reach and product range, ultimately increasing visibility and shelf space in retail outlets. We're striving to secure more prominent placement in stores and expand the number of outlets carrying our products, encompassing various categories such as men's, women's, innerwear, athleisure, activewear, and our premium product, Force NXT.

One of the key objectives of this project is to reduce the overall working capital cycle, particularly once a significant contribution begins to flow from the project. We achieve this by implementing distributor management and auto-replenishment systems at the distributor level. This move provides valuable insights into sales patterns, customer preferences, and product demand at a granular level, down to specific pin codes.

With this data, we can tailor our approach more effectively, transitioning from a traditional push model to a pull model. Through the auto-replenishment system, we ensure that distributors' stocks are replenished weekly based on their previous week's sales, optimising stock levels and controlling channel stocks.

Cash conversion cycle improves significantly

In the fourth quarter of FY 2023-24, our total income reached INR 502 Crore, marking a substantial 23.2% year-on-year growth. Additionally, the total volume experienced a robust increase of approximately 17.6% year-on-year in Q4 FY 2024, while our net profit for the quarter surged to INR 33

Crore. Moreover, our cash conversion cycle in FY 2023-24 saw a remarkable improvement to 150 days, down from 159 days in FY 2022-23, primarily due to the reduction in inventory days. This outcome was achieved by eliminating high-value inventory, resulting in a more efficient system.

In the Lakshya project, our enrolled distributors typically serve more retailers than industry averages, often reaching 200 to 300 retailers each.

By streamlining operations and offering quick, efficient service, we aim to create a win-win situation for retailers, enabling them to free up working capital and diversify their product offerings.

This project represents a significant shift in our approach. It sets us apart from traditional marketing models, focusing on creating value for distributors and retailers while strengthening our brand presence.
