September 30, 2025 (MLN): Dewan Cement Limited (PSX: DCL) shared its financial results for the year ended June 30, 2025, posting a loss after tax of Rs967.8million, compared to a loss of Rs509.7m in FY24 which reflects an 89.9% increase in losses.

The company’s turnover fell slightly by 4.1% YoY to Rs21.4 billion in FY25, down from Rs22.32bn last year.

Cost of sales declined 9.4% YoY to Rs19.87bn, resulting in a significant rise in gross profit to Rs1.55bn, up 4 times YoY from Rs393.9m in FY24.

Operating profit stood at Rs338m versus a loss of Rs637m in the previous year, supported by lower finance cost (Rs12.1m, down 43% YoY) and higher other operating expenses.

However, the company booked total taxation of Rs1.05bn, which dragged the bottom line into the red.

Consequently, loss per share (LPS) came in at Rs2, compared to Rs1.05 last year.
