- By segment, sales revenue of spirits rose slightly by 0.8% y-o-y to THB120.7b, thanks to higher consumption of white spirits in Thailand, and continuous growth in the Myanmar market. PATMI fell 5.8% y-o-y to THB22.0b in FY24, weighed down by higher brand investment and marketing activities, raw material costs, finance cost and income tax expense.
- For beer, its revenue grew 2.4% y-o-y to THB126.3b, due to the rebound in tourism and increased consumption from warmer weather in Thailand. PATMI increased 10.1% y-o-y to THB2.7b in FY24, thanks to lower raw material prices and improved operational efficiency.
- For NAB, its revenue was up 4.2% y-o-y to THB65.8b due to higher sales volume across all categories. Despite higher investment in brand and marketing activities, NAB’s PATMI increased 21.7% y-o-y to THB1.5b, driven by lower packaging costs, favourable commodity price and enhanced production efficiency.
- Separately, the sales revenue of the food business increased 5.5% y-o-y to THB22.3b, driven by the opening of new stores. Despite higher sales revenue, PATMI declined 72.5% to THB64m, dragged by higher raw material cost, an increase in operating expenses to support sales growth and a decrease in one-off fair value gain on remeasurement of investment in Cocoaland in FY23.
Hopefully of a better FY25
