Systems Limited reported a commendable increase of 63% in half yearly profits on year-on-year basis, mainly due to top line increment and additions in non-core income.

During the company’s Board of Directors meeting held on August 27th 2018, the board reviewed its financial earnings for the half year ended on June 30th 2018.

As compared to the half year period ended on June 30th 2017, Systems’ net revenue grew by 38% while gross profits rose by 31%.

Although administrative expenses registered an increase of 44%, other income grew simultaneously, cancelling out the negative effect to some extent.

Overall profits for the period increased from Rs.277.6 million to Rs.453 million, while earnings per share are reported to be at Rs.8.20 per share.
