- The sales of the company clocked in at PkR38.45bn, swelling by 127%QoQ/53%YoY on account of higher expected offtake in i) DAP (+145%YoY) and ii) Urea (+17/+35%YoY%QoQ) whereas gross margin has clocked in at 22.2% compared to 15.7% in same period last year owing to higher DAP margins, in line with our expectations.
- The company registered other income of PkR4.1bn as it successfully completed the sale transaction of Fauji Wind Energy Limited I & II (FWEL I & II).
- The company has recorded unusual expense of PkR4.2bn under the head of other expenses, which completely nullified the gain from the sale of FWEL I & II. We are in process to get clarity from the management regarding the unusual expense.
