October 29, 2026 (MLN): Consolidated profit for the period of D.G. Khan Cement Company Limited (PSX: DGKC) rose 24.14% year-on-year to Rs2.73bn for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared with Rs2.20bn in the same period last year.

Basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) increased 21.13% to Rs6.02 from Rs4.97 in the corresponding quarter last year.

The growth came from a 16.90% rise in revenue, higher other income and a new share of profit from an associate. Higher selling and distribution expenses, increased finance cost and a heavier levy partly offset the gains.

Revenue grew 16.90% to Rs25.05bn from Rs21.42bn. Cost of sales rose slightly faster, by 17.44%, to Rs19.84bn from Rs16.89bn, which limited gross profit growth to 14.91% at Rs5.21bn, compared with Rs4.53bn.

Administrative expenses increased 16.25% to Rs529.04m from Rs455.09m, while selling and distribution expenses rose 64.49% to Rs1.44bn from Rs873.11m. Other expenses fell 8.51% to Rs208.16m from Rs227.52m.

Changes in fair value of biological assets added a gain of Rs158.80m, up 13.44% from Rs139.98m, and other income rose 41.72% to Rs1.52bn from Rs1.08bn.

Finance cost climbed 49.40% to Rs921.82m from Rs617.01m. The company also booked a share of profit from an associate of Rs442.03m, with no such item last year.

Profit before levy and income tax grew 18.55% to Rs4.24bn from Rs3.58bn. Levy rose 29.51% to Rs198.62m from Rs153.36m, taking profit before income tax up 18.05% to Rs4.04bn from Rs3.42bn.

Taxation increased 7.10% to Rs1.31bn from Rs1.22bn, which absorbed part of the gains and left profit for the period at Rs2.73bn.
