Ghandhara Industries Limited (PSX: GHNI) has announced a stellar financial performance for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, with its profit after tax surging to Rs. 1.58 billion. This marks a massive 147% increase compared to the Rs. 638.60 million reported in the same period last year.
Earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter jumped to Rs. 36.98, up significantly from Rs. 14.99 in the corresponding quarter last year.
The company’s explosive growth was driven by exceptional top-line performance. Net sales nearly doubled, increasing by 97% Year-on-Year to Rs. 11.92 billion, up from Rs. 6.05 billion, reflecting exceptionally strong market demand.
This sales surge translated into even faster profit growth at the operational level. Gross profit more than doubled, increasing 107% to Rs. 2.85 billion, with the gross margin improving to 23.9% from 22.7%, indicating significant operating leverage from higher volumes.
A key contributor to the bottom-line boom was a dramatic 70.7% reduction in finance costs, which fell to Rs. 10 million from Rs. 34 million last year, underscoring a stronger financial position.
The powerful combination of record sales, expanding margins, and lower borrowing costs resulted in a profit before tax of Rs. 2.51 billion, a more than two-and-a-half-fold increase from the previous year.
