ACPL's net income declines by 37% YoY owing to dip in offtakes

MG News | April 22, 2022 at 10:33 AM GMT+05:00
April 22, 2022 (MLN): Attock Cement Pakistan Limited (ACPL) witnessed a 37% YoY decline in its consolidated net profits to Rs1.25 billion (EPS: Rs7.88) during the nine months ended March 31, 2021, against the net profit of Rs1.99bn (EPS: Rs11.51) earned in the same period last fiscal year.
This drop in profitability was mainly due to the decline in offtake which translated to a revenue dip of 4.3% YoY.
Meanwhile, PKR depreciation, augmented coal prices, and higher electricity tariffs also put pressure on margins which nosedived from 26% to 18% during 9MFY22 despite higher retention prices.
However, a reduction in distribution expenses by 33% YoY due to decline in exports, admin costs by 18% YoY and financial charges by 67.4% YoY, provided some cushion to the net income of the company.
Notably, the other positive highlight is a 5.3x YoY increase in other income to Rs337.4mn during the period under review.
On the taxation front, the effective tax rate of the company for the period stands at 36% compared to 17% in the corresponding period last year.
