Performance Overview

- Despite the challenging external environment, the India operations demonstrated resilience, with EBIT growing by 16% in Q4 FY26, driven by strong performance in Financial Services, short-haul outbound travel, corporate travel, and MICE segments.
- Sterling Holiday Resorts emerged as a strong contributor, reporting a 19% increase in its top line during the quarter and a 7% growth for the full year, supported by an expanding resort network.
- The company announced a strategic demerger of its resort business into Sterling Holiday Resorts, a move aimed at streamlining the capital structure and allowing Thomas Cook to focus on its core travel and financial services businesses.
- Management noted a softened forward booking pipeline, particularly for long-haul travel, due to ongoing geopolitical tensions and elevated airfares, but expressed cautious optimism for demand to return in the latter half of the year if the situation stabilizes.
