KARACHI: Image Pakistan Limited has reported a steady improvement in its financial performance for the nine months ended March 31, 2026, posting higher profitability despite a slight decline in revenue. The company’s Board of Directors approved the financial results in its meeting held on April 29, 2026, and did not recommend any cash dividend, bonus shares, or rights issue.
According to the consolidated financial statements, the company recorded profit after tax of Rs811.5 million during the nine-month period, compared with Rs766.3 million in the corresponding period last year, reflecting a year-on-year increase of nearly 6%. Earnings per share (EPS) also improved to Rs3.52, up from Rs3.33 a year earlier.
Despite the improvement in earnings, net revenue declined slightly to Rs3.23 billion from Rs3.33 billion in the same period last year. However, the company managed to enhance profitability through improved cost management and higher operating income, with operating profit increasing to Rs1.05 billion from Rs1.04 billion.
For the third quarter ended March 31, 2026, Image Pakistan posted a profit after tax of Rs202.5 million, compared with Rs209.5 million in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. Quarterly earnings per share stood at Rs0.88, marginally lower than Rs0.91 recorded in the same quarter last year.
The company’s consolidated balance sheet showed total assets of Rs7.36 billion as of March 31, 2026, while shareholders’ equity strengthened to approximately Rs4.85 billion, reflecting continued growth in retained earnings and a solid financial position.
In its notification to the Pakistan Stock Exchange, the board announced that no cash dividend, bonus shares, or right shares would be distributed for the period under review.
The latest financial results indicate that Image Pakistan has maintained resilient profitability despite softer sales, supported by disciplined cost controls and stable operating performance. Investors will likely monitor the company’s ability to sustain earnings growth and strengthen revenue momentum in the coming quarters.
