April 23, 2025 (MLN): Fauji Foods Limited (PSX: FFL) reported a profit after tax of Rs335 million [EPS: Rs0.13] for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, marking a significant 224.5% increase compared to Rs103m [EPS: Rs0.04] in the same period last year.

This represents the company’s highest-ever quarterly profit from operations.

FFL’s strong financial turnaround was driven by its ongoing strategy to deliver sustained growth, which continues to bear fruit.

The company also achieved its highest-ever quarterly revenue of Rs7.91bn, a 44.94% increase over Rs5.46bn in Q1 2024.

Despite a 48.16% rise in cost of revenue, gross profit surged by 31.71% to Rs1.41bn, showcasing improved operational efficiency and margin management.

Marketing and distribution expenses increased by 31.5%, and administrative expenses rose by 25.27%, reflecting the company’s broader business scale.

A substantial 76.63% decline in other expenses, however, significantly enhanced overall profitability.

Although finance costs rose by 49.88%, strong growth in operating profit up 35.78% to Rs478m alongside a 36.17% boost in other income to Rs133m, bolstered performance.

Profit before income tax climbed by 209.15% to Rs540m, up from Rs175m in the same period last year, despite the increased levy and taxation.

Tax expenses rose to Rs180m, up 184.05% year-on-year.
