Ms. Farah Malik Bhanji, Managing Director:

Dear Shareholders, it is with great pleasure that I present to you the 48th Annual Report of Metro Brands Limited for the FY 2024-25. I warmly welcome each and every one of you, and I extend my heartfelt thanks for the trust and belief you continue to place in us.

As we reflect on this year, I want to start by addressing the industry’s broader landscape.

India’s footwear industry is on a resilient growth path, standing out even amid global challenges. Powered by rising incomes, digital adoption, and evolving lifestyles, both metros and smaller towns are driving a shift in consumption that is reshaping the retail landscape and defining future demand. MBL delivered a resilient financial performance in FY 2024-25. The first half was muted by fewer weddings dates and erratic weather, while the second half saw a recovery led by festive demand. Against this mixed backdrop, MBL delivered steady performance. Revenue rose 6.4% year-on-year to ₹ 2,507 Crores, driven by disciplined store expansion with 70 net store additions. Gross margin stood at 57.7%, ahead of guidance, with in-house brands at multi-brand outlets contributing 74% of revenue. EBITDA grew 8.2% to ₹ 760 Crores, with margin improvement to 30.3%. Profit after tax was ₹ 354 Crores, lower than the previous year due to one-time tax adjustments related to historical reconciliations in the FILA business.

Sustainability continues to shape how MBL operates and grows.

Last year, I spoke about MBL’s ambitious goal of recycling one pair of shoes for every pair sold within two years. I am pleased to share that we have successfully achieved this goal ahead of schedule. This is a strong step forward in embedding sustainability more deeply into our business, and we remain focused on building further on this foundation in

Page 5 of 17 the years ahead. Our focus remains on delivering consistent, profitable growth across all banners, while continuing to strengthen our leadership with strong long-term potential.

We have the people, capital, and deep customer knowledge across regions to drive store expansion. Our in-house brands are growing stronger, complemented by partnerships with leading international brands, helping us shape India’s footwear wardrobe with quality, style, and relevance. On a personal note, and on behalf of the Board, I wish to convey my heartfelt gratitude to all our employees and supplier partners whose commitment and dedication form the foundation of Metro Brands Limited’s success. I also extend my sincere appreciation to our loyal customers for their steadfast support, to our shareholders for their continued trust in our vision, and to our Independent Directors for their invaluable guidance and encouragement in all our endeavours. With that, I now invite our CEO, Nissan, to share plans for the future and the trends we expect to shape in the coming year. Thank you.

Mr. Nissan Joseph, Chief Executive Officer:

Thank you, Farah. Dear shareholders, as we bring another successful year for Metro Brands Limited to a close, it is with great pride that I stand before you to reflect on our achievements and outline the promising future that lies ahead. MBL delivered a stable financial performance in FY 2024-25, while advancing on key operational and strategic priorities. Operationally, crossing the 900 store mark was a key milestone for us. As of March 31, 2025, we had a total of 908 stores, with a net addition of 70 during the year.

This growth reflects a disciplined approach while pursuing store expansion, with each location selected based on clear revenue and profitability benchmarks. E-commerce continues to be a growth engine for the Company. In FY 2024–25, online sales grew by approximately 20% and now contribute 10.6% of total revenue. On the strategic front we witnessed a key milestone with the successful launch of India’s first Footlocker store.

The store offers a globally relevant assortment and a differentiated premium retail experience, aligned with our strategy to serve the next generation of sports and athleisure consumers. Another standout development during the year was the signing of a long-term distribution agreement with New Era Cap bringing this globally recognized headwear brand to India. The addition of New Era not only expands our premium portfolio but also strengthens the sports and athleisure offering within our Footlocker stores. At MBL, our vision is to bring the finest global brands to India and offer a complete footwear wardrobe that blends comfort, style and quality. Our strategic partnership with Clarks is a meaningful step in that direction. While this development took place in June 2025, just after the close of the financial year, it is worth highlighting.

Clarks’ heritage and premium positioning in comfort-led footwear especially women’s range will complement and enhance our ability to capitalize on the growing casualization trend. We also made meaningful progress in repositioning FILA during the year.

Page 6 of 17 A major milestone was the successful completion of a multi-year inventory liquidation exercise, which cleared the path for the brand’s next phase of growth. With that groundwork in place, FILA is now better positioned to rebuild salience, expand its store footprint, and reconnect with India’s fast-growing base of sport-inspired consumers. As Farah highlighted, the first half of FY 2024-25 was relatively muted, but we witnessed a rebound in demand in the second half of the year. We are pleased to see this positive momentum continue into the current period as well. In addition, supportive government measures such as the reduction in GST rates, revised income tax slabs for individuals and lower interest rates are expected to further boost demand. With these factors in place, we are confident of projecting a revenue growth of 15-18% over the medium to long term. With every action, we reaffirm our commitment to elevating customer experiences, delivering lasting value for all stakeholders, and moving forward in step with India’s future. In closing, I extend my gratitude to all our stakeholders for being an integral part of our journey. To our shareholders, thank you for your steadfast trust and confidence in our vision. To our valued customers, you remain at the heart of everything we do, your loyalty and support continue to inspire us. And to our dedicated team, the true strength of Metro Brands Limited, your passion and commitment drive our success every day. Together, we will continue to build a stronger, more sustainable, and more impactful future for all. With that, I will turn it back to Deepa.

Page 10 of 17 and 12 lakh is this is the play of the auditor or secretarial auditor how is it. In one year, it jumps and then it dips. Tax expenses have increased but our basic EPS was ₹ 15.37 which we earned but this time our basic EPS is ₹ 12.50, tell us about that. The agreement which we made with the British brand, what is the status of that and what is the plan. Is there any chance of right issues? I want to know from Madam Deepa Sood our Company Secretary, what is the reason for increased investor complaints and was it the staff’s lacking and they are not getting resolved.

Our share is listed in the share market and our BSE code is 543426 and the Metro Brands symbol and keep the corporate governance good and there should not investor complaint. Madam I want to know that your citizenship is from America and the membership which you have taken, is it for America. Your DIN Number 008306760, is this DIN international number.

Our next speaker shareholder is Mr. Ankur Chanda.

Am I Audible?

Yes Mr. Chanda.

Good afternoon to everyone. Sir I just want to ask some questions. That despite the expansion of retail outlets, Metro Brand same store sales growth has been sluggish. Can management explain the disconnect between store expansion and revenue growth? Are we prioritizing quantity or quality in our retail footprint? Second one is gross margin has remained flat or declined marginally despite a premium positioning in the footwear segment. What step is the Company taking to improve margin, especially with rising competition from domestic and global brands? Metro brand stock performance has underperformed compared to peer like Bata and Relaxo in the last insert timeframe.

What tangible steps is management taking to unlock shareholder value? And fourth is, with the retail industry moving rapidly towards omni-channel and online-first strategies, Metro Brand still seems heavily reliant on offline retail. Why has the Company lagged in digital innovation and online sales integration? Please tell us about that and Mr. Manjeet said that your citizenship is not of India, then can you apply as a Director and do all the work, so please tell us briefly about that. Thank you, Madam.

Thank you, Mr. Chanda. Our next speaker shareholder is Ms. Nisha Chanda.

Hello. Am I Audible?

Good afternoon, everyone. Thank you for this opportunity. I have only four questions.

Number one, why is the revenue per square feet on a declining trend since FY 2022-23 from ₹ 19,800 to ₹ 18,200? So my second question would be, our revenue growth in the past two years have been under 10 to 11%. How do you perceive our revenues to grow annually in the next few years? Are you seeing any signs of the economy in general and the retail market in particular, gaining traction from the slowdown experienced in the past two years? So my third question, what was the average price increase in our footwear portfolio in FY 2024-25? And lastly, how many net stores do we propose to open in the current financial year? How many Clark stores have we planned to open in the next two

Page 13 of 17 to three years? And what is the price range for the Clark's range? That’s it from my side. Thank you.

Thank you, Ms. Arora. Our next speaker shareholder is Ms. Prakashini G. Shenoy.

I wholeheartedly support all the resolutions put forth in today's meeting. Thank you, Chairman Sir.

Thank you so much, Ms. Shenoy.

Thank you everyone for your questions. Before your queries are answered, we invite you all to watch a brief audio-visual on our brands, Foot Locker, New Era and Fila.

I now request the management team to answer the questions raised by our speaker shareholders.

Mr. Kaushal Parekh, Chief Financial Officer:

Thank you, Deepa. Good afternoon, everyone. So there was a question on overall market share and what is the market share of Metro Brands. Based on data that is

Page 15 of 17 available with us, overall market size is around of the entire footwear market is around ₹ 1,50,000 Crores. So our overall market share would be somewhere in that range of 2 to 3% as of FY 2024-25. This clearly shows extremely good growth potential that is available to us for future growth. There was a question on how many franchisee stores do we have as of FY 2024-25. Out of 908 stores that we have, we have only 5 stores that are under franchisee model. All of our stores are under co-co model i.e., Company owned-Company operated.

There was a question on variations that we have seen in the overall tax expense. We have very clearly explained the reasons, but the main reasons for variations were seen in FY 2023-24, and this was predominantly on account of consolidation of FILA business and benefits that we got on account of consolidation of carry forward FILA loss over last few years.

There was a question on overall investor complaint. We want to assure everyone that all the complaints are addressed very promptly by our secretary team. And as of today, there are no outstanding complaints that are pending to be addressed. These complaints are predominantly for the non-payment of dividends, which are very promptly addressed by our team.

There was question on international citizenship of Farah. We want to mention that we have, as per the procedure required, we have obtained the DIN numbers, and that is, you know, all the legal process have been thoroughly followed, and that is DIN number has been taken according to that. There was a question on expansion and overall sluggishness in the same store growth and on the revenue per square feet showing a declining trend. I would like to mention, as you all know, we would want to mention that FY 2022-23 economy reopened after post-COVID restrictions of almost two years. This year saw lots of pent up buying and probably a complete wardrobe refresh by customers. Hence, it would not be appropriate to compare with FY 2022-23. The direct way would be to compare revenue per square feet for FY 2018-19, which was around ₹ 17,500, which has increased to around ₹ 18,200 as we speak. This is despite the expansion of stores in a tier 2, 3, 4 cities which have effect of lowering revenue per square feet. Despite that, we have shown very good growth.

Page 16 of 17 There was a question on overall CSR spend. We are, I would want to mention that we are compliant with the requirement of the law of spending 2% profit on the overall CSR spend that is required in the last two years. And Company has been spending that number on a year-on-year basis on a regular basis.

There was a question on overall revenue growth being in the range of 10 to 11% and what our overall goal and target is for the year. Here we would like to mention that after the muted first half of FY 2024-25, demand rebounded in the second-half and we have seen that positive momentum sort of continue. Combined with the supportive government measures that they have taken in terms of reduction of GSC rates, reduction of individual taxation and reduction in the interest rates we expect customer sentiments to be very robust and we feel very confident to achieve 15 to 18% revenue growth over medium to long term.

There was a question on average price that we have seen in FY 2024-25, our ASPs.

Overall, ASP for our Company was around 3%. And if you specifically see for footwear, this was somewhere in the range of around 5%.

There was a question on how many new stores that we propose to open in the current financial year and our plans for Clarks. Here we would want to mention, we have seen very good progress in the overall new store pipeline and rental expectations have also eased as we speak after the recent post-COVID highs in last two years. This gives us confidence that we should be able to continue to grow our store network as we have demonstrated in the past, even going forward. With respect to Clarks, we signed this deal in June 2025. And we are very pleased to inform that we have already launched Clarks merchandise within our Metro Mochi stores. We plan to open first Clark CBO in H1 of next financial year. While we avoid giving any detailed guidance, we feel very confident about the overall opportunity for Clarks in India. In terms of price range, for Clarks, this is somewhere in the range of ₹ 3,000 to ₹ 8,000.

I think with this, we have answered all the questions. If there are any questions that are unanswered, then as Deepa mentioned, you can connect to our investor relationship website. Thank you.

Ms. Farah Malik Bhanji, Managing Director:

Thank you once again. I believe we have addressed the questions raised today, and for any further clarifications, you are most welcome to connect with Ms. Deepa Sood or Mr. Kaushal Parekh after the meeting.
