The maker of brands like The Derma Co, and Aqualogica, witnessed a decline in EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) of 6.6 percent.
"In this quarter, we have taken strategic steps towards transitioning from super-stockists to direct distributors in the top 50 cities. This transition has impacted our revenue and profits, leading to a slowdown for Mamaearth," Honasa Consumer Chairman and CEO Varun Alagh said.
However, Alagh added that the realignment will also strengthen offline go-to-market (GTM) strategy in the quarters ahead, setting the stage for our next phase of growth.
