As per results, the company has posted a net loss of  Rs 22.11 million (LPS: Rs.0.004), which declined by 90% YoY against the net losses of Rs 216 million of the same period last year.

During the period, the company’s net revenues were down by 5.46% YoY, but more than a proportionate decrease in the cost of sales led to a massive increase in its gross profit by 97.66% YoY.

However, the company’s other expenses continued to be a burden on the results as it surged massively by around 70%YoY, from Rs 355 million to Rs. 604 million.

On the other hand, the other income rose by 14% YoY to Rs 694 million which kept the losses in check. The finance cost increased by 11.19% YoY, from Rs 1.52 billion to Rs 1.68 billion due to a substantial increase in interest rate.
