Jefferies: Buy- Target Price: Rs 200
“2Q EBITDA missed our forecasts due to lower GM. Management attributed this to higher discounting in the BPC portfolio led by increased competition, lower ad income and product mix change. Revenue growth was strong, however, led mainly by strong user growth in both the key segments. Going forward, there may be limited scope on BPC CM expansion, at least in the medium term, operating leverage should help drive up EBITDA margins. We cut our FY25-26 EBITDA estimates by 6-11% as we lower our contribution margin estimates for BPC. Retain ‘Buy’. Fashion. We value Nykaa’s BPC at 7.5x Sep’25E sales and Fashion at 2x Sep’25E sales to arrive at a Target Price of Rs 200.”

However, EBITDA Margin expanded by 38bps YoY as employee expenses remained stable while declining ~90bps YoY as % of revenue. The company has delivered growth on transacting customers as well as AOVs and we find operating metrics again turning healthy. We reiterate ‘Buy’ rating with Target Price of Rs 210 (~42% upside) as we find strong conviction on earlier than expected profitability in Fashion.”
