October 23, 2019 (MLN): Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) ‘s net profits for the Quarter ended September 2019 has increased by 15.7% YoY from Rs 27 million in the same quarter last year to Rs 31.4 million.

The rise in profitability largely came on the back of a 9% increase in income generated from the listing fee and a 49% rise in markup income during the period.

On the other hand, a parallel decline in the company’s rental income by 24.8%, income earned from foreign exchange operations by 14% and profits from associated firms by 17.7%, put a limit to the bottom-line growth.

Moreover, the earning per share of the company locked in at Rs 0.04 per share, exhibiting a growth of 33% YoY.
