April 23, 2020 (MLN): Attock Cement Pakistan Limited has announced the results for nine months period ended March 31, 2020, as per which, the company has earned profits of Rs. 2.03 billion, i.e. 47% higher than the earnings of the same period last year.
According to the research report by Arif Habib, the revenue of the company improved by 18% despite lower dispatches and dumping activity witnessed in the North by other cement players.
Moreover, the cost of sales increased by 15% due to the depreciation of the local currency, which negated the impact of lower coal prices.
However, the gross profits improved by 28% during the period as the company managed to maintain higher retention prices.
Another notable change witnessed during the period was the 61% decline in the income tax charge as compared to the same period of last year.
