OYO reports stellar Q1FY26 results with 231% YoY EBITDA growth, strong storefront expansion, and a projected ₹2,492 Cr EBITDA for FY26.

OYO has kicked off FY26 on a high note. The hospitality-tech giant reported an EBITDA of ₹550 Cr in Q1FY26, a 231% surge compared to ₹166 Cr in the same quarter last year. This marks one of OYO’s strongest quarterly performances, driven by aggressive storefront expansion and higher booking values.

Storefronts Surge Across Hotels, Homes & Subscriptions:

• Hotels: 23,300 storefronts (↑19% YoY)
• Homes: 124,000 storefronts (↑44% YoY)
• Subscriptions: 155,000 storefronts (↑108% YoY)

This rapid expansion shows OYO’s strategy of scaling both traditional hotels and new-age subscription models is paying off.

GBV & Revenue Momentum:

• Gross Booking Value (GBV): ₹7,227 Cr (↑144% YoY)
• Hotels GBV: ₹5,929 Cr (↑221% YoY)
• Revenue: ₹2,019 Cr (↑47% YoY)

Notably, Hotels are the clear growth driver, with GBV per hotel storefront soaring 150% YoY. Homes, while expanding in count, saw a dip in per-storefront GBV — a signal that efficiency improvements may be needed.

Profitability on the Rise:

• Adj. Gross Profit: ₹1,254 Cr (↑125% YoY)
• Margins: ~17% of GBV (slightly lower than 19% last year)

Even though margins slipped, the absolute profit jumped sharply — proof of scale-driven profitability.

FY26 Outlook: Stronger Than Ever! Management has guided for a record-breaking year:

• GBV: ₹31,508 Cr (↑94% YoY)
• Revenue: ₹9,212 Cr (↑47% YoY)
• Adj. EBITDA: ₹2,492 Cr (↑127% YoY)
• Operating Profit: ₹1,080 Cr (vs ₹415 Cr last year)

With marketing spends ramping up (+49% YoY), OYO is clearly betting big on customer acquisition — but falling cost ratios (from 12% of GBV to 8%) underline strong operating leverage.

The Big Picture:

OYO is no longer just chasing growth — it’s delivering profits at scale. With a powerful Q1FY26, robust hotel performance, and a guided EBITDA of nearly ₹2,500 Cr for FY26, the company is setting the stage for a sustained profitability journey.

For investors and industry watchers, the message is clear: OYO 2.0 is about profitable growth, not just expansion.
