September 28, 2020 (MLN): Gul Ahmed Textile Mills has reported losses of Rs. 625.7 million (LPS: 1.46) for the Financial Year 2020, as opposed to the earnings of Rs. 3.6 billion recorded last year.

The decline in profitability was a clear outcome of lower sales, which fell by 5.5% during the year. This led to gross profits decreasing by 24%.

Where no substantial changes were observed in the major expense heads, the other operating expense showed a decline of 15.3%. On the other hand, the non-core income plummeted by 68.5%, further straining the financial position of the company.

There was also a 36.7% increase in the finance cost owing to higher interest rates and short-term borrowings by the company.
