February 27, 2024 (MLN): Pakistan International Bulk Terminal Limited (PSX: PIBTL) achieved a significant turnaround in the first half of fiscal year 2024, with its profits surging to Rs1.06 billion [EPS: Rs0.59] compared to a loss of Rs232.33m [LPS: Rs0.13] in the same period last year (SPLY).

The company reported a net revenue of Rs8.07bn, compared with Rs5.86bn a year earlier, according to the financial statement made available by the company on the local bourse on Tuesday.

The cost of services rose at a slower pace of 11.8%, boosting the gross profit margin to 38.5% from 24.2%.

Other income grew 24% YoY to Rs108.63m. Finance costs, however, climbed 28.6% YoY to Rs1.07bn, mainly due to higher interest rates.

On the taxation front, the company paid Rs883.8m, as against a tax credit of Rs78.16m received in SPLY.
