MG News | September 30, 2025 at 10:02 AM GMT+05:00
September 30, 2025 (MLN): Gul Ahmed Textile Mills Limited (PSX: GATM) reported its financial results for the fiscal year ended 2025, revealing a mixed performance characterized by growth in its top-line but a contraction in its bottom-line profitability.
According to the financial data, GATM’s revenue from
contracts with customers grew by 7.57%, reaching Rs185.54bn in FY25, up from
Rs172.48bn in FY24.
This growth was accompanied by a rise in the cost of
sales, which increased by 6.77% over the same period.
While gross profit grew by a notable 11.60% to Rs32.08bn,
the company's profitability margins experienced a slight dip.
The gross profit margin improved to 17.29% in FY25 from
16.66% in FY24, indicating effective management of production costs. However,
the net profit margin contracted to 2.40% in FY25 from 2.81% in the previous
year.
This contraction contributed to a decline in the
company's final profit. The profit for the year saw a drop of -8.19%, settling
at Rs4.45bn from Rs4.85bn.
The decline was also influenced by factors such as a
significant decrease in other income and an increase in finance costs.
As a result, the earnings per share (EPS) for the company
also saw a decline of -8.23%, falling to Rs6.02 in FY25 from Rs6.56 in FY24.
