Fiscal 2025 Second Quarter Financial Results

Revenue. We generated revenue of $211.0 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024, an increase of 25.1% (26.5% in constant currency(1)) over revenue of $168.7 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023, primarily as a result of an increase of 25.6% (27.1% in constant currency) in revenue from our air ticketing business, an increase of 15.5% (16.7% in constant currency) in revenue from our hotels and packages business, an increase of 25.4% (26.6% in constant currency) in revenue from our bus ticketing business, and an increase of 100.8% (103.3% in constant currency) in revenue from our others business, each as further described below. The increase in revenue was primarily due to the robust travel demand in India for both domestic and international outbound travel in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

The table below summarizes our segment profitability in terms of revenue and Adjusted Margin in each segment. For more information on non-IFRS measures and segment profitability measures, see “About Key Performance Indicators and Non-IFRS Measures” and “Information About Reportable Segments” in our condensed consolidated interim financial statements included elsewhere in this release.

Air Ticketing.

Adjusted Margin – Air ticketing includes customer inducement costs of $35.0 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 and $31.7 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023, recorded as a reduction of revenue. The increase in revenue from our air ticketing business and Adjusted Margin – Air ticketing was primarily due to an increase in gross bookings of 18.8% (20.4% in constant currency) primarily driven by a 15.9% increase in the number of air ticketing flight segments year over year (excluding flight segments booked as a component of bookings for our Hotels and Packages segment), primarily due to the robust travel demand in India for both domestic and international outbound travel in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Further, our Adjusted Margin % (defined as Adjusted Margin as a percentage of gross bookings) – Air ticketing remained unchanged at 6.8% in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to 6.8% in the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Adjusted Margin – Hotels and packages includes customer inducement costs of $31.4 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 and $26.6 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023, recorded as a reduction of revenue. The increase in revenue from our hotels and packages business and Adjusted Margin – Hotels and packages was primarily due to an increase in gross bookings by 19.6% (21.2% in constant currency) primarily driven by a 17.5% increase in the number of hotel-room nights in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to the robust travel demand in India for both domestic and international outbound travel in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Our Adjusted Margin % – Hotels and packages remained unchanged at 17.5% in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to 17.5% in the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Our Adjusted Margin – Bus ticketing increased by 24.3% (25.6% in constant currency) to $27.1 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 from $21.8 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Adjusted Margin – Bus ticketing includes customer inducement costs of $2.3 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 and $2.0 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023, recorded as a reduction of revenue. The increase in revenue from our bus ticketing business and Adjusted Margin – Bus ticketing was primarily due to an increase in gross bookings by 19.9% (21.5% in constant currency) driven by a 21.4% increase in the number of bus tickets travelled year over year, primarily due to the robust travel demand in India in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Our Adjusted Margin % – Bus ticketing increased marginally to 10.3% in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to 9.9% in the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Others. Revenue from our others business increased by 100.8% (103.3% in constant currency) to $22.0 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024, from $10.9 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

The increase in revenue from our others business and Adjusted Margin – Others was due to an increase in other travel services and marketing alliances primarily due to the robust travel demand in India in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Other Income. Other income was $0.1 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 and $0.2 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Service Cost. Service cost increased by 23.6% to $49.8 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 from $40.3 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to the robust travel demand particularly in our packages business in India and an increase of $5.9 million in service cost related to our car booking business in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Personnel Expenses. Personnel expenses increased by 12.5% to $39.4 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 from $35.0 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to the annual wage increases effected in the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Marketing and Sales Promotion Expenses. Marketing and sales promotion expenses increased by 43.0% to $35.8 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 from $25.0 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to an increase in variable costs and discretionary expenditures such as expenses on events and brand building initiatives in response to the robust travel demand in India in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Additionally, we incurred customer inducement costs recorded as a reduction of revenue of $69.0 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 and $60.3 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023. The details are as follows:

Other Operating Expenses. Other operating expenses decreased by 3.2% to $53.4 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 from $55.1 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023, primarily due a $10.0 million impairment provision towards non-financial assets (being amounts recoverable from Go Airlines (India) Limited) in the quarter ended September 30, 2023, partially offset by an increase in operating expenses, including distribution costs, payment gateway charges and outsourcing expenses linked to an increase in bookings in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Depreciation and Amortization . Our depreciation and amortization expenses were $6.7 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 and $6.7 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Results from Operating Activities. As a result of the foregoing factors, our results from operating activities were a profit of $26.1 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to a profit of $6.7 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Our Adjusted Operating Profit was $37.5 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $28.2 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023. For a description of the components and calculation of “Adjusted Operating Profit (Loss)” and a reconciliation of this non-IFRS measure to the most directly comparable IFRS measure “Results from operating activities”, see “About Key Performance Indicators and Non-IFRS Measures” elsewhere in this release.

Net Finance Costs. Our net finance cost was $0.5 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $4.5 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to an increase of $1.8 million in interest income on term deposits and further due to a decrease in unrealized foreign exchange losses resulting from translations of monetary assets and liabilities from Indian Rupees to U.S. dollars in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Income Tax Expense. Our income tax expense was $7.6 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $0.2 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to a reversal of deferred tax assets recognized in the quarter ended March 31, 2024.

Profit (Loss) for the Period. As a result of the foregoing factors, our profit for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 was $17.9 million as compared to $2.0 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Our Adjusted Net Profit was $40.7 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $27.8 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Our Adjusted Diluted Earnings per share was $0.36 in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $0.25 in the quarter ended September 30, 2023. For a description of the components and calculation of “Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Share” and a reconciliation of this non-IFRS measure to the most directly comparable IFRS measure “Diluted earnings (loss) per share”, see “About Key Performance Indicators and Non-IFRS Measures” elsewhere in this release.

Liquidity. As at September 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents and term deposits (including restricted cash and cash equivalents and term deposits of $8.2 million) on our balance sheet was $717.2 million.

Furthermore, the board of directors has authorized the Company to repurchase its 2028 Notes from time to time through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions with individual holders or otherwise, in accordance with applicable securities laws (including Rule 14e-5 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934).

About Key Performance Indicators and Non-IFRS Measures

We refer to certain non-IFRS measures in various places within this release, including “Adjusted Operating Profit (Loss)”, “Adjusted Net Profit (Loss)”, “Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Share” and constant currency results. Our key performance indicators are “Adjusted Margin” and “Adjusted Margin %” which are also non-IFRS measures referred to in various places within this release.

We evaluate our financial performance in each of our reportable segments based on our key performance indicators, Adjusted Margin and Adjusted Margin %, which are non-IFRS measures and segment profitability measures. Adjusted Margin represents IFRS revenue after adding back customer inducement costs in the nature of customer incentives, customer acquisition costs and loyalty program costs which are reported as a reduction of revenue, and deducting the cost of acquisition of services primarily relating to sales to customers where we act as the principal. Adjusted Margin % represents Adjusted Margin as a percentage of gross bookings.

As certain parts of our revenues are recognized on a “net” basis when we are acting as an agent, and other parts of our revenue are recognized on a “gross” basis when we are acting as the principal, we evaluate our financial performance in each of our reportable segments based on Adjusted Margin, which is a non-IFRS measure and a segment profitability measure, as we believe that Adjusted Margin reflects the value addition of the travel services that we provide to our customers. Income from packages, including income on airline tickets sold to customers as a part of tours and packages is accounted for on a "gross" basis as the Company controls the services before such services are transferred to travelers. Revenue from the packages business which is accounted for on a “gross” basis represents the total amount paid by customers for these travel services and products, while our cost of procuring the relevant services and products for sale to our customers in this business is classified as service cost.

We also refer to Adjusted Operating Profit (Loss), Adjusted Net Profit (Loss) and Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Share which are non-IFRS measures and most directly comparable to results from operating activities, profit (loss) for the period and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the period, respectively, each of which is an IFRS measure. We use financial measures that exclude share-based compensation costs, amortization of acquired intangibles, impairment provision for non-financial assets, net change in financial liability relating to acquisitions, share of loss (profit) of equity-accounted investees, interest expense on financial liabilities measured at amortized cost, and income tax expense (benefit) for our internal management reporting, budgeting and decision making purposes, including comparing our operating results to that of our competitors.

A limitation of using Adjusted Operating Profit (Loss), Adjusted Net Profit (Loss) and Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Share instead of results from operating activities, profit (loss) for the period and diluted earnings (loss) per share calculated in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB is that these non-GAAP financial measures exclude a recurring cost, for example, share-based compensation. Management compensates for this limitation by providing specific information on the IFRS amounts excluded from Adjusted Operating Profit (Loss), Adjusted Net Profit (Loss) and Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Share. Because of varying available valuation methodologies and subjective assumptions that companies can use when adopting IFRS 2 “Share based payment,” management believes that providing non-IFRS measures that exclude such expense allows investors to make additional comparisons between our operating results and those of other companies. In addition, reconciliations of IFRS measures to non-IFRS financial measures and operating results are included at the end of this release.

Constant currency results are financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with IFRS and assume constant currency exchange rates used for translation based on the rates in effect during the comparable period in the prior period. Because the impact of changing foreign currency exchange rates may not provide an accurate baseline for analyzing trends in our business, management believes percentage growth in constant currency is an important metric for evaluating our operations. Constant currency is a non-IFRS measure and it should not be considered as a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with IFRS.

We believe that our current calculations of Adjusted Operating Profit (Loss), Adjusted Net Profit (Loss), Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Share, Adjusted Margin, Adjusted Margin % and change in constant currency represent a balanced approach to adjusting for the impact of certain discrete, unusual or non-cash items and other items such as customer inducement costs in the nature of customer incentives, customer acquisition costs and loyalty program costs, which we believe are representative of our operating results and provide useful information to investors and analysts. We believe that investors and analysts in our industry use these non-IFRS measures and key performance indicators to compare our company and our performance to that of our global peers.

However, the presentation of these non-IFRS measures and key performance indicators are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our consolidated financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. These non-IFRS measures and key performance indicators may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to potential differences in the method of calculation.
