By MG News | October 28, 2019 at 11:09 AM GMT+05:00
October 28, 2019 (MLN): Ghandhara Industries Limited (GHNI) has posted earnings of Rs. 13.7 million (EPS: Rs. 0.32) for the first quarter of current Fiscal Year, which translates into a decline of 95.5% as compared to the earnings of same period last year.
The company’s topline income fell by 30.92% on account of decline in volumetric sales. Nonetheless, the cost of sales also fell by a similar margin, which resulted in gross profits falling by 34.6%.
The increase in finance costs by 138% had put the company on the verge of incurring losses, but the tax rebate of Rs. 32.9 million during the aforesaid period saved the company from doing so.
