Lucky Cement Limited has reported a strong financial performance for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, driven by higher revenues, improved profitability, and solid operational execution across its domestic and international businesses. The company’s latest financial results highlight resilience amid a challenging economic environment, supported by stronger cement demand and contributions from its diversified portfolio.
During the first nine months of FY2026, Lucky Cement’s consolidated gross revenue increased by 14.5% year-on-year to PKR 473.7 billion, compared to PKR 413.9 billion in the corresponding period last year. Net revenue also grew by 13.4% to PKR 377.3 billion, reflecting higher sales volumes and improved business performance across multiple segments.
The company reported a consolidated net profit of PKR 68.5 billion, marking an 8.4% increase from PKR 63.1 billion recorded in the same period last year. Profit attributable to shareholders rose by 11.1% to PKR 63.7 billion, while earnings per share (EPS) improved to PKR 43.47, up from PKR 39.12 a year earlier.
Lucky Cement’s domestic cement operations continued to benefit from improving construction activity and easing inflationary pressures. Local cement sales volumes increased by 8.9%, outperforming the industry’s local sales growth of 10.6%, while total cement and clinker sales rose by 2.2% during the review period. The company also achieved growth in clinker production and cement production, reflecting improved operational efficiency.
On an unconsolidated basis, the company delivered even stronger profitability. Gross revenue increased by 8.2% to PKR 143.1 billion, while net profit surged 34.3% to PKR 36.7 billion. Earnings per share rose significantly to PKR 25.07, compared with PKR 18.67 in the corresponding period of FY2025, supported by stronger margins, higher dividend income, and improved operational performance.
The company’s international operations also contributed positively. Cement businesses in Iraq and the Democratic Republic of Congo continued to support profitability through improved margins and steady demand. Additionally, Lucky Cement advanced several strategic initiatives, including expanding cement production capacity in Congo, increasing solar power generation at its Karachi plant, and deploying UTIS technology to improve energy efficiency and reduce production costs.
Looking ahead, Lucky Cement remains optimistic about Pakistan’s economic recovery despite ongoing geopolitical and global economic uncertainties. Management expects continued support from infrastructure development, improving macroeconomic conditions, and strategic investments across its diversified businesses to sustain long-term growth and shareholder value.
