November 25, 2018 (MLN): BYCO’s profits for the first quarter of current fiscal year, suffered a mighty blow of over Rs.777 million, YoY, (i.e. 76%), as the company recorded gains at Rs.241 million, (EPS: Rs.0.05 per share, -73.7%). Last year during the same timeframe, BYCO’s profits stood at over Rs.1 billion.

This discernible decline came about as a consequence of cost of sales (Rs.52 billion) overrun, which accounted for an escalation of Rs.22.8 billion (i.e. 77%) over last year, causing the gross profits (Rs.1.5 billion) to tumble by nearly Rs.571 million(i.e. approximately 28%).

On top of this, finance costs increased by Rs.326 million (i.e. 66%, YoY), causing further financial damage to BYCO.
