For investors, fintech analysts, and AI-driven insurance innovators — this New to The Street interview features Rohan Malhotra, Founder & CEO of Roadzen (NASDAQ: RDZN), following a quarter where the company beat expectations across every major metric.
Roadzen delivered $13.7M in revenue (vs. $12M expected), representing 26% sequential growth and 15% year-over-year growth. It was the company’s fifth straight quarter of adjusted EBITDA improvement, narrowing its loss to roughly $1M and putting Roadzen on track for breakeven next quarter. Malhotra says Roadzen now operates at a $55M run-rate, targeting $100M as the company scales globally.
A strengthened balance sheet — including $11.5M in new equity capital raised at premiums to market and a senior debt extension with Mizuho through June 2027 — removes major overhangs and brings in long-term institutional investors.
The company’s U.S. expansion is set to accelerate dramatically following a strategic acquisition that:
Adds four state licenses
Onboards a team that has written over $1B in commercial auto premium
Opens the door to the $300B U.S. auto insurance market
Enables Roadzen to target high-value commercial policies (up to $50,000 per policy)
Malhotra says rising U.S. premiums — now averaging $2,400 per passenger vehicle — make Roadzen’s AI-driven underwriting and claims automation more valuable than ever. The company expects meaningful revenue, margin, and bottom-line improvements as U.S. operations start contributing next quarter.
