Profit Remains Strong Despite Year-on-Year Decline
The company’s net profit for FY2026 was Rs 627.24 million, compared with approximately Rs 741.69 million in the previous financial year. This represents a decline in annual earnings, while earnings per share decreased from Rs 3.68 to Rs 2.02. 284212
The decline in profitability came despite the company maintaining a sizeable gross profit.

Revenue Generation and Operating Performance
Barkat Frisian Agro generated gross profit of more than Rs 1 billion during the year. Operating profit was reported at approximately Rs 762.4 million, demonstrating that the company’s core operations continued to generate significant earnings before financing and taxation.

Strong Asset Base

Consolidated Financial Statements Prepared for the First Time
An important development highlighted by the company is that it prepared consolidated financial statements for the first time for the year ended June 30, 2026. This follows the establishment of its wholly owned subsidiary, Barkat Frisian Agro Global L.L.C.-FZ, in the United Arab Emirates.
The company stated that the subsidiary had not commenced commercial operations during the year and therefore had no material contribution to the consolidated operating results. 284212
The consolidated accounts reported net profit of approximately Rs 624.4 million, with earnings per share of Rs 2.01. 284212
Outlook
Barkat Frisian Agro’s FY2026 results show a company that remains profitable while operating in an environment of significant costs and financial pressures. Although annual profit and earnings per share declined from the previous year, the company maintained a strong operating profit and a sizeable asset base.
The establishment of a wholly owned subsidiary in the UAE could also provide a platform for future international activities, although the subsidiary had not yet begun commercial operations during the reported financial year.
The company has scheduled its Annual General Meeting for October 28, 2026, in Karachi, where shareholders will have an opportunity to review the company’s annual financial performance and other matters. 284212
Overall, Barkat Frisian Agro enters the new financial year with continued profitability, a stronger asset base and a new international corporate structure, while improving cost efficiency and restoring earnings growth will remain important priorities going forward.
