Imagicaa coasts to profit ride despite dip in visitor-driven revenue

MUMBAI: It’s been a rollercoaster quarter for Imagicaaworld Entertainment and not just in the parks. The theme park and hospitality operator posted a net profit of Rs 4,431.21 lakh for the quarter ended 30 June 2025, more than doubling sequentially from Rs 1,572.83 lakh in Q4 FY25, even as revenues dipped year-on-year.

Revenue from operations stood at Rs 14,809.80 lakh, down 19.6 per cent from Rs 18,398.37 lakh in the same quarter last year, but up sharply from Rs 9,440.41 lakh in the preceding quarter. The Parks Division remained the star attraction, contributing Rs 13,104.08 lakh in revenue and Rs 4,250.13 lakh in segment profit. The Hotel Division added Rs 1,705.72 lakh in revenue and Rs 443.88 lakh in profit.

Finance costs jumped to Rs 426.49 lakh from just Rs 39.30 lakh a year ago, while depreciation and amortisation expense rose to Rs 2,566.38 lakh. Advertisement, sales and marketing spend more than doubled quarter-on-quarter to Rs 1,492.96 lakh, signalling a push to draw in visitors.

Total expenses came in at Rs 10,542.38 lakh, leaving a profit before tax of Rs 4,497.54 lakh, a drop from Rs 8,808.22 lakh in Q1 FY25, but a hefty rebound from Rs 1,624.76 lakh in Q4 FY25.

On the balance sheet, total assets stood at Rs 1,85,260.83 lakh, with the Parks Division accounting for the lion’s share. Capital employed reached Rs 1,29,805.42 lakh, up from Rs 1,08,271.28 lakh a year earlier.

While visitor-driven revenues took a dip compared to last year, Imagicaa’s ability to bounce back quarter-on-quarter suggests it’s strapping in for a steady ride through FY26 with the Parks Division firmly in the front seat.
