July 30, 2019 (MLN): Attock Petroleum Limited (APL) has incurred a 30% decline in its annual net profit for FY19 which stood at Rs.3.96 billion (EPS: RS.39.79 per share) against prior year’s profit of Rs.5.66 billion (EPS: Rs.56.83 per share).

The company’s profits came down on account of cost overrun which pulled gross profit (Rs.8.2 billion) by 16%, YoY. Therefore, the gross margin shrunk by 129 basis points.

Moreover, the operating expenses (Rs.3.6 billion) expanded by 41% over the year, thus bringing down the operating profit (Rs.5.7 billion) by 29%, YoY.

In addition to this, a final cash dividend at Rs.10 per share, i.e. 100%, in addition to an interim dividend already paid at Rs.10 per share, was recommended.
