September 25, 2020 (MLN): Sapphire Textile Mills Limited (SAPT) witnessed 56% YoY increase in net profits for FY20 to Rs 7.86 billion compared to the profits of Rs 5 billion reported in FY19.

 The earnings per share of the company also exhibited an increase of 38% YoY to Rs 245.36 as apposed to Rs 178.24 last year.

During the year, Company’s net turnover increased from Rs.49.6 billion to Rs.52.96 billion, depicting a growth of 7% YoY, while its cost of goods sold exhibited a marginal growth, accordingly, the gross profit margin of the company surged to 32% from 28% last year.

The increased profitability can be attributed to rationalization of energy prices for the export-oriented industry, currency adjustment, and Company’s continued emphasis on vertical integration and growth in sale of value-added products.

The increase in interest rates during FY20 remained a challenge for SAPT due to high cost of borrowing for working capital. The finance of the company increased to Rs.6 billion representing 11% of sales from Rs.4.97 billion representing 10% of sales in FY19.
