BUA Foods Q1:2025 Earnings Note | Sustained Growth Momentum

In Q1:2025, BUA Foods delivered another strong performance, with profit after tax more than doubling year-on-year. This impressive bottom-line growth was supported by modest revenue growth of 23.85% YoY, improved cost efficiency, and a strategic focus on expanding production and market reach.

Beyond the numbers, BUA Foods is clearly positioning itself for long-term dominance. With ongoing investments in production capacity, new product introductions such as the 25kg Midi-Bulk Macaroni Pack, and a deliberate price reduction strategy, the company is building momentum in key consumer segments.

Currently trading at NGN418.00 (as of May 13, 2025), BUA Foods is below our 12-month target price of NGN500.74, implying an upside potential of 19.79%. While the stock's P/E ratio of 60.06x may seem steep compared to peers like DANGSUGAR and NNFM, it still sits below the industry average of 70.72x, suggesting room for rerating as earnings continue to outperform.
