September 24, 2020 (MLN): Nishat Chunian Power Limited (NCPL) made profits of Rs. 4.6 billion (EPS: 12.54) during the year ended June 30, 2020, signifying a growth of almost 35% over the last year.

According to Taurus Securities, the company recorded a 13% decline in revenue owing to lower load factor, lower rate payments surcharge as well as impact of lower interest rates in the fourth quarter.

The finance cost showed an increase of 51.6% due to higher interest rates and rise in the company’s borrowings.

Other notable changes include a 98.6% decline in other expenses, whose positive impact was partially negated by the decline in other income by 72%.

The company did not pay any taxes during the year. Moreover, contrary to the predictions made by several brokerage houses, no dividend was announced by the Board of the company.
