During the period under review, the topline earnings of the company are expected to increase owing to a recovery in local dispatches while the gross profits of the company are predicted to fall in 1HFY20 due to higher cost pressures.

Moreover, the company’s other income is forecasted to fall due to fewer dividends from associated entities.

The distribution expenses are anticipated to increase on an account of higher export sales from south plants with further damages expected from huge finance cost, pertaining to excessive borrowing with a high cost of debt.
