During the period, the sales revenue were up by 5.8% YoY, but more than a proportionate increase in the cost of sales made the gross profits decline by 8.2% YoY. Therefore, the gross margin shrunk from 8.5% to 7.16%.

The share of profit of associated companies plunged by 70.7% YoY to clock at Rs 3.8 million. However, other income increased by 34.5% YoY owing to an increase in income from financial assets.

Further, the finance cost surged by 59.2% YoY to Rs 22 million when compared to the prior year owing to the higher interest rate during the period under review.
