Mukta Arts Quarter Results Q2
by Samiksha
November 2019, Mumbai: Mukta Arts Consolidated EBITDA margin improves from
15% to 22% quarter on quarter but PBT is impacted by implementation of IndAS
116.
Mukta Arts Limited Standalone Revenue remains stable
except for the sale of rights recorded in Q1.
The subsidiaries in the cinema space, operating under the Mukta A2 brand in India and Bahrain, posted a consolidated turnover of Rs 2,643 lacs, up 7% from Q1 with total screen count increasing to 58 while another
10 screens are operating under a joint venture in Telengana and Andhra Pradesh. While EBITDA margins of the subsidiaries
improved to 19%, threefold increase in amortisation and finance cost because of
implementation of Ind AS 116 resulted in increase in losses before tax from Rs
152 lacs in Q1 to Rs 208 lacs in Q2.
Whistling Woods International, its subsidiary in the
education business posted a 20% growth in
revenue from Rs 1222 lacs in Q1 to Rs 1470 lacs
in Q2. Performance is not comparable with Q2 Year-on-year because the impact of
IndAS 115 had only been taken at the year end. However, the entity continues to
improve its bottom line with a strong 32% EBITDA margin and 13% PAT margin.
Student count has also grown from 1,043 to 1,249.
