RaaS has published an update on and interview with FMCG agri-group Ricegrowers which trades as SunRice (ASX:SGLLV) following the release of its interim report last week in which it delivered RaaS-adjusted EBITDA of $67.9m (+10%) in line with our forecasts and NPAT of $31.2m (+4%), below our forecasts due to a higher than expected tax rate (28% vs our 22%).Branded sales represent ~70% of total SGLLV sales, with the benefits of new brands, brand extensions and increased ranging evident in the H1 FY25 result.
Across Rice Food, Riviana and CopRice EBITDA growth far outpaced revenue growth, with EBITDA margins for Rice Food +400bps, +330bps for CopRice and +140bps for Riviana.
SGLLV added SavourLife and Simply Delish to the portfolio over the half and can be expected to add and extend further brands in pursuit of its 2030 revenue target of $3.0b.
