Asset light business model

DreamFolks is an airport service aggregator platform providing services such as Lounge Access, Food & Beverage offerings, Spa Services, Meet & Assist, Airport transfer services, Transit Hotels, Baggage transfer, and much more. “Company follows an asset-light business model that integrates global card networks in India, card issuers and other corporate clients in India, including airline companies with various airport lounge operators and other airport-related service providers on a unified technology platform,” said AngelOne in a note. While DreamFolks is a Dominant player in the airport lounge aggregation industry with strong relationships with clients, and evolving services portfolio, analysts do see some concerns. A slowdown in travel, threat and high client and revenue concentration are some of the risks. 

The company is profitable with a net profit of Rs 16 crore in the previous fiscal year. Revenue of DreamFolks has, however, seen its revenue drop from Rs 367 crore in financial year ending March 2020 to Rs 282 in the last financial year. The positive outlook for air travel, however, bodes well for the company. “The Indian market is expected to grow at almost 6X from around 175 million air travelers in 2019 to around 1 billion travelers in 2040 as compared to the expected global growth of 2X to a total of 10 billion passengers in 2040,” HDFC Securities said.
