Engro Fertilizers Limited has reported a profit of Rs 7.12 billion for the half-year ended June 30, 2026, marking a decline from Rs 8.46 billion earned in the same period last year, according to the company’s unaudited consolidated interim statement of profit or loss.

Despite the dip in profitability, the company maintained resilience amid challenging market conditions. Net sales fell to Rs 70.85 billion from Rs 80.69 billion a year earlier, reflecting reduced demand and pricing pressures in the fertilizer sector. The cost of sales also decreased to Rs 47.29 billion, resulting in a gross profit of Rs 23.56 billion, down from Rs 26.53 billion in 2025.

Operating expenses rose slightly, with selling and distribution costs at Rs 7.17 billion and administrative expenses at Rs 2.53 billion. Other income stood at Rs 13.86 billion, while finance costs were trimmed to Rs 1.07 billion, compared to Rs 1.70 billion last year.

The company recorded profit before taxation of Rs 12.11 billion, followed by taxation of Rs 4.99 billion, leading to the final net profit figure of Rs 7.12 billion.
