Hi, i think during covid, inventory days shot-up as radhika being a local player. But it looks like inventory days has been improving since then. Company also opened a new store which is 4 time larger then their previous store. The new store will take time to reach normal operation, till then inventory days will remain high.

The management has not done any Concalls since Apr-22. Can anybody explain that?

I have no update on that. I think they have never done concalls.

Hi all,
One thing very interesting with Radhika Jewel is they have opened a new larger store in Surat (Fixed Assets have risen from 1 to 13/14). Which is bigger and should bump up the sales in the coming quaters. The December Quarter was obviously aided with Diwali and Festival Season bumping up the Gold sales but the new store which had opened last year must have aided in the same. The next 3 quarters I expect the company to show the similar acceleration in Sales as in the December Quarter.

Disc: Invested and Biased

The results were good, but market seems to have discounted them as well. Is weakness in the counter reflective of gold weakening (post trump win), as they hold a large inventory on their books.

The company’s future plans are good. Need to wait for execution. My knowledge of the technicals of the gold price is quite limited.

I have started tracking this company. What do you think about inventory days now? They are certainly going down but quite high at the moment. What are other risks to look out for?

Hi gaurav, If you compare with the peers then you will find,
Titan Inventory day - 176 days
Kalyan inventory day - 191 days
Senco - 201 days
P N Gadgil 62 days.
Radhika - 245 days.
(except PN gadgil there is no much difference in the Inventory days of the bigger players.)
We can give some head room to Radhika, (management in its interview in Zee business said that they want to grow their business with the internal funds.

Saw this zee business interview

Promoter claimed to have 45 crore profit but fell short at 27. He was also discussing the valuation of his own firm and told its undervalued with that figure (Anil mentioned this first). This is a red flag. Though he did say revenue would be 245 crores and it quite close at 233 crores.

Regarding inventory, being a small player, shouldn’t they be churning out inventory at much faster rate. They said their focus is on bridal jwellery which was impacted this year with too few auspicious dates for marriage.

Disc: recently started tracking this company

hey can you explain the payment to the manufacturers point?
‘As the selling price is calculated on the basis of the prevailing
market price, the immediate replenishment mitigates the
risk of cost of inventory going up due to rising gold prices.
Further, the company settles the bill with manufacturers in
physical gold terms as opposed to cash payments.’
