Sapphire Foods India Limited has released the transcript of its earnings call held on July 24, 2026, pertaining to the financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 (Q1 FY27).
During the call, the company reported a strong performance with 15% revenue growth and 32% adjusted EBITDA growth, marking the best performance in the last eleven and fifteen quarters, respectively. This was driven by positive Same-Store Sales Growth (SSSG) across all three brand verticals: KFC India, Pizza Hut India, and its Sri Lanka business.
Q1 FY27 revenue stood at ₹888 crore, a 15% increase. The company added sixteen new KFC restaurants and five Pizza Hut outlets in India, along with one Pizza Hut in Sri Lanka, bringing the total restaurant count to 1,074 as of June 30, 2026. Consolidated restaurant EBITDA grew by 23% year-on-year to 13% margin, while consolidated adjusted EBITDA was ₹75 crore, up 37% year-on-year, with a margin of 8.4%.
KFC India reported 5% SSSG and 17% system growth, driven by strong dine-in and takeaway contributions. Innovations like the KFC Shawarma and Double Chicken Dynamite were highlighted. Pizza Hut India achieved 1% SSSG after five quarters, with new product launches including the Crafted Flatzz and masala beverages. The Sri Lanka business showed strong SSSG of 9% but faced profitability challenges due to inflationary pressures and currency depreciation.
Management discussed strategies for demand stimulation, including value offerings and omnichannel execution. They also addressed concerns regarding the impact of price hikes and the path to improving profitability, particularly in Sri Lanka. The company reiterated its guidance for KFC network expansion of 60 to 80 stores annually, while maintaining a cautious approach for Pizza Hut expansion.
