We expect the company to report earnings decline of 40% QoQ to stand at PKR 617mn (EPS: PKR 4.32) in 3QMY19. Despite price hike, margins are likely to contract to 4.7% in 3QMY19 as compared to 6.4% in 2QMY19. The decline is mainly attributed to currency devaluation amid decrease in volumetric sales during the period under review.
