October 22, 2026 (MLN): Kohinoor Energy Limited (PSX: KOHE) reported a 2.95x surge in its net profit for the first quarter ended September 30, 2026 (1QFY27 / 3MFY27), reaching Rs411.78m compared to Rs139.52m in the corresponding period last year.

Reflecting this significant bottom-line growth, basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter expanded to Rs2.43, up from Rs0.82 in 1QFY26.

The primary catalyst driving the quarter's strong performance was an expansion in sales revenue alongside a 2.47x growth in gross profit, powered by higher dispatch off-take.

Gross sales for the quarter rose to Rs4.47bn, up from Rs798.47m in 1QFY26. Although cost of sales increased to Rs3.92bn (up from Rs575.70m), gross profit expanded to Rs549.38m compared to Rs222.77m in the prior-year period.

On the operational front, administrative expenses were well-managed, edging up 10% to Rs77.70m (compared to Rs70.50m in 1QFY26). This allowed operating profit to jump to Rs471.68m.

Below the operating line, KOHE absorbed elevated borrowing costs as finance costs expanded to Rs61.71m (up from Rs15.19m in 1QFY26). Coupled with "other income" of Rs1.86m and no final tax levy charge for the period, profit before taxation rose to Rs411.83m.

The company recorded a minimal taxation charge of Rs52 thousand for the quarter (down from Rs141 thousand in 1QFY26). Backed by a substantial surge in top-line generation sales and expanded operating margins, Kohinoor Energy Limited securely closed the three-month period with its net profit reaching Rs411.78m.
