Quarter read
What the record says.
Brainbees Solutions reported Q3 FY26 consolidated revenue of ₹2,172 crore, up 12% YoY, with India multi-channel growth of 8.9% (impacted by supply chain volatility and diapering competition). International losses reduced 25% YoY as management avoided promotional frenzy. Global Bees delivered 30% core category growth and adjusted EBITDA of ₹69.8 crore (4.9% margin). Management guided for sequential improvement in India growth in FY27, driven by Rocket Bees (own logistics, now in 22 cities, targeting 45-50% of shipments by mid-year) and FirstCry Quick (3-hour delivery pilot in 3 cities). Key risk: sustained irrational competition in diapering could pressure margins and growth.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Management expects structurally superior growth in FY27 driven by Rocket Bees, FirstCry Quick, and depth strategy.
- Own logistics network to cover half of total volumes by middle of calendar year 2026.
- Rationalization of underperforming brands expected to finish in first quarter of next fiscal.
Risks flagged
- Heightened competitive intensity in diapering category pressured growth and margins; management cannot control duration.
- Sourcing supply chain issues trimmed ~2pp from India growth; management noted it as a challenge.
- Elevated promotional activities by horizontal players may continue to suppress topline growth in Middle East.
- Rocket Bees and FirstCry Quick require scaling and operational efficiency; past ExpressBees venture faced challenges.
Key quotes
- We have witnessed 20% improvement in delivery TATs resulting in much superior growth in customer experience.
- We are not going to achieve a certain step function growth in topline while having a steep drop in gross margin or steep drop in EBITDA.
- In the cities that we are already delivering through RB we see a very significantly higher growth than the cities that we do not have RB today.
