MG News | September 28, 2026 at 11:56 AM GMT+05:00
September 28, 2026 (MLN): Ghani Chemical Industries Limited (PSX: GCIL)
reported a 44% surge in its consolidated net profit for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026,
reaching Rs2.87bn compared to Rs1.99bn (restated) in the preceding year.
Reflecting this solid bottom-line growth, basic and
diluted earnings per share (EPS) for the year improved to Rs5.03, up from
Rs3.87 in FY25.
Profit after taxation from continuing operations stood
at Rs2.87bn (continuing EPS of Rs5.03), while loss from discontinued operations
accounted for a negligible Rs329 thousand.
The primary catalysts behind the strong financial
performance were net revenue expansion, effective cost of sales management, and
a 30% expansion in gross profit.
Gross sales grew by 11% to Rs9.74bn. After deducting
sales tax of Rs1.46bn, net sales rose 11% year-on-year to Rs8.28bn, up from
Rs7.44bn in FY25.
Coupled with a 4% decline in cost of sales (Rs3.86bn),
gross profit expanded significantly to Rs4.42bn compared to Rs3.41bn in the
prior year.
On the operational front, overheads increased to support
commercial scale and distribution reach.
Distribution costs surged 192% to Rs600.82m,
administrative expenses rose 25% to Rs359.20m, and other expenses dropped 12%
to Rs199.03m.
Operational expenses were partially cushioned by a 27%
boost in "other income" (Rs501.05m), driving profit from operations
up 22% to Rs3.76bn.
Below the operating line, GCIL absorbed higher debt
servicing outlays.
Finance costs expanded by 25% to Rs566.72m (up from
Rs453.02m in FY25). However, strong gross margin momentum pushed profit before
taxation up 21% to Rs3.18bn (after deducting statutory minimum and final tax
levies of Rs17.47m).
The company benefited from a 51% reduction in corporate
taxation charges, which fell to Rs312.69m for the year (down from Rs642.47m in
FY25).
Supported by 11% top-line revenue growth, 30% gross
margin expansion, and reduced tax outlays, Ghani Chemical Industries Limited
securely closed the fiscal year with its net profit reaching Rs2.87bn.
