Company surpasses projected profit, eyes expansion with additional outlets.
Fresh Take:
Hey there! Let's chat about Poya International, a retail giant known for beauty, cosmetic, and skincare products, among other merchandise. Recently, they reported an impressive 11.84% year-over-year increase in net profit for Q1, reaching NT$784.59 million. This marks the highest quarterly earnings per share in their history, hitting NT$7.48 per share.
The secret to their success? A better-than-expected gross margin of 44.45% and an operating margin of 15.29%, thanks to a 7.2% year-on-year sales increase to NT$6.3 billion. With over 400 stores under their belt, including flagship stores, standard Poya stores, and "shop-in-shop" concept stores, growth seems to be the name of the game for Poya.
A key part of their strategy is the "shop-in-shop" concept, where specific brand products are showcased within larger store spaces. Poya aims to expand this and increase their store count across Taiwan this year, promising at least a net increase of over 50 stores.
But they're not stopping there. Poya is also investing heavily in digitalization, targeting female consumers, and introducing more own-brand products to boost their brand value and earnings. Own-brand products account for a significant 2.9% of their total sales.
Regrettably, our sources didn't shed much light on Poya's 2021 expansion and digitalization plans.
