May 28, 2020 (MLN): Avanceon Limited has reported net earnings of Rs. 384.9 million (EPS: 2) for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020, i.e. approximately 1.6x higher than the income of the same quarter in the previous year.

The commendable growth in net profits came about as a result of an increase in the top-line income by 39%, as well as an 8.4x surge in non-core income.

While there was a 36% increase in the administrative and selling expenses, the impact of it got somewhat negated by the decline in the non-core expenses by an equal margin.

The company also saw a 3% decline in its finance cost, which further gave respite to its financial standing. However, one of the major setbacks during the period was the increase of 71% in income tax expense.
