In India alone, over one million businesses rely on Pine Labs and its BNPL, loyalty, prepaid & gifting, rewards & cashback, and many other products and services. So far, Pine Labs has sold over 850,000 POS machines in India in recent years and is expanding to many countries. In recent years, Pine Labs has been investing huge amounts in expanding its business to many countries like Singapore, Malaysia, and other Southeast Asia countries, UAE, and others.
The revenue saw a record crossing of Rs. 1,000 crores for the first time to reach 1,280.5 crores in FY 23, a 37% rise compared to FY 22. The main contributor to the revenue increase is that apart from selling the POS machines, it is selling its services, which increased to Rs. 1 013.8 from 733.8 crores from FY 22 to FY 23. However, because of the vast difference in the deferral interests, spending on overseas expansion plans, and acquiring many companies, the net loss increased from 22.6 to 56.2 crores from FY 22 to FY 23.
The significant increase in revenue is not only due to selling POS machines and providing various services but also from interest income, government grants, subsidies income, written-back excess provisions, etc. Another vital fact in the results is that if revenue from India rose from 91405 to 1253.7 crores from FY 22 services to FY 23, its global income grew 51% to reach Rs. 268.7 crores in FY 23.
In 13 rounds, Pine Labs raised over 1.2 billion dollars to fund rapid expansion plans in Southeast Asia and Middle Eastern countries. Pine Labs’ valuation was set at five billion dollars in the last round, led by Vitruvian Partners in 2024. Throughout the fundraising rounds, the unicorn FinTech company Pine Labs had the backing of SBI, Paypal Ventures, Mastercard, Alpha Wave Global, and others. It will help to negate the withdrawal of the IPO attempt by Pine Labs to list in the US Nasdaq in 2022, stating unfavourable market conditions. However, with rapid expansion into many countries, increasing revenue, raising funds, and other things, Pine Lab’s share price will increase now and in the future.
All the above facts will convince anyone to invest in the Pine Lab unlisted shares easily, quickly, and safely from the top broker, earning the trust of thousands of investors for many years to yield high returns because of the growing digital payments not only in India but also in other countries it is expanding rapidly.
