Should you buy, sell or hold Nykaa shares after Q4 results?
Nykaa’s Q4 results were once again a clear demonstration of a sustained execution story. Growth momentum was robust across both BPC and Fashion, with their NSV rising 29% and 42% YoY, respectively, and consolidated revenue expanding by 28% YoY, analysts said.
JM Financial raised its EBITDA estimates for Nykaa by 3–4% over FY27–28E, leading to a 30–40 bps increase in EBITDA margin estimates. The improvement is mainly due to lower marketing spends and strong operating leverage.
It expects consolidated EBITDA CAGR of ~50% over FY26–29 on the back of BPC margin expanding to over 13% and fashion margins reaching 7%, which is likely to ensure Nykaa remains a high-earnings-growth compounding story.
The brokerage firm also expects Nykaa to sustain growth momentum with higher BPC profits getting unburdened of the losses in eB2B gradually and Fashion also starting to contribute to profitability in FY27 itself. Due to these changes, PAT estimates have been increased by 2–4% over FY27–28.
JM Financial reiterated its ‘Buy’ call and raised Nykaa share price target to ₹335 for March 2027 from ₹325 earlier, implying ~53x FY28E EBITDA multiple.
Nykaa’s management indicated that growth momentum remains healthy in early FY27, although they remain cautious due to macro concerns such as inflation, currency depreciation and global factors affecting consumption.
Nuvama Institutional Equities tweaked its FY27E and FY28E earnings by -0.3% and -3.8%. The brokerage firm maintained its ‘Buy’ rating on Nykaa shares and raised the target price to ₹321 from ₹310 earlier.
