Karachi: Arpak International Investments Limited has marked a significant turnaround in its financial performance, as detailed in the company's 49th Annual Report released on October 6, 2026. The company reported a profit before taxation of Rs. 277.82 million for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026, compared to a loss of Rs. 124.90 million in the previous year, indicating a very large or significant move.
The financial uplift is primarily attributed to the reversal of impairment provision on investments in associated companies, which amounted to Rs. 407.81 million, a considerable increase from Rs. 211.77 million reported last year. However, the company faced a share of loss from associated companies totaling Rs. 124.57 million, down from Rs. 333.12 million in 2025.
According to information available from the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), the company's earnings per share rose to Rs. 69.38, a substantial improvement from a loss per share of Rs. 31.31 in the previous year. This reflects the company's robust recovery and strategic financial maneuvers.
Despite the overall positive financial outcome, Arpak International Investments Limited encountered an operational loss of Rs. 5.54 million. This was due to operating and general expenses of Rs. 17.08 million surpassing the income generated, which stood at Rs. 11.78 million. The operational loss was higher compared to Rs. 3.52 million reported in the prior year.
In line with the company's investment strategy, the Board of Directors conducted a thorough evaluation of its stake in Premier Grain Ethanol Limited. The board remains vigilant in monitoring the investment and is assessing the evolving business environment and project developments.
This financial report underscores Arpak International Investments Limited's strategic turnaround and highlights its commitment to optimizing investment outcomes amidst challenging market conditions.
