The company's Profit After Taxation rose by 5.73% to reach Rs. 751.45 million for the year ended June 30, 2025, up from Rs710.70m in the previous fiscal year.

Despite a slight dip in Revenue by 3.98% to Rs85.51bn, the company's focus on managing costs helped bolster its bottom line.

This reduction in financial expenses played a key role in improving the company's overall profitability.

In a move to reward its investors, the Board of Directors has approved a Final Cash Dividend of Rs. 1/- per share (10%) for the fiscal year.

This is in addition to the Interim Cash Dividend of Rs. 1/- per share (10%) that was already paid.
