February 8, 2019 (MLN): Engro Foods Limited (EFOODS) has reported a massive decline in annual profits during the year 2018, primarily due to diminished sales this year as the topline fell by over Rs.2 billion.

By the year end, the company’s net income logged in at Rs.63.8 million (EPS: Rs.0.08) while last year’s net earnings was Rs.379.3 million (EPS: Rs.0.49), marking a decline of over 83%, YoY.

Due to a decline in topline, EFOODS’ gross profit (Rs.5.15 billion) toppled by 8.5%. After taking into account the net operational expenses and finance cost (which had both risen), the company found itself face to face with pre-tax losses.

However, with a tax reversal worth Rs.234 million the company redeemed itself enough to report decent bottom-line gains.
