According to the research, Page Industries is likely to report Rs 190 crore in earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and ammortisation (EBITDA) ) – a measure of the company's overall financial performance, a fall of 29 per cent on a year-on-year basis.  

Zee Business analysts peg Page Industries’ margin – a key measure of a business's profitability – at 17 per cent as against 24 per cent a year ago. However, the company’s margin is expected to improve on a sequential basis, mainly driven by better distribution and a favourable product mix.  

Investors will look out for the management’s commentary on volume growth, business outlook, store expansion, and momentum in athleisure demand.
