The company currently commands a market capitalisation of over Rs 1.2 lakh crore.Last month, Nomura initiated coverage on the eyewear retailer with a Buy call and a target price of Rs 888 per share, noting that Lenskart has transformed from a challenger into a market leader. The international brokerage highlighted that Lenskart has a long runway of over 10,000 planned stores, with only 27% of that potential tapped so far. It noted that the company holds a 5% market share, double that of the second-largest player, in India's highly fragmented and unorganised prescription eyewear segment.It has created a strong moat alongside a scalable and profitable business model with end-to-end vertical integration from centralised manufacturing to retailing and AI-enabled operations, resulting in a cost structure that is 35-40% lower than the industry average, Nomura said.
