Fauji Cement Posts PKR 13.3bn Profit, Announces Rs. 1.25/share Dividend, Approves PP Bag Plant Expansion

ISLAMABAD – Fauji Cement Company Limited (FCCL) has announced a final cash dividend of Rs. 1.25 per share (12.5%) for the year ended June 30, 2025, alongside strong financial performance and a key capacity expansion decision.

The company’s dispatches rose 6% YoY to 5.4 million tons from 5.1 million tons in FY 2024. Net revenue increased 11% to PKR 88.96 billion versus PKR 80.03 billion in the same period last year, while gross profit margin improved to 35% from 32%, driven by higher sales volumes, better pricing, and cost optimization.

Operational efficiencies — including greater use of local coal and alternative fuels, in-house PP bag production, enhanced power generation, and lower financial charges due to interest rate cuts — boosted profitability. Profit after tax surged 62% to PKR 13.3 billion from PKR 8.2 billion, with EPS climbing to Rs. 5.43 from Rs. 3.35.

The Board also approved the expansion of the PP Bags Manufacturing Plant at Hattar to meet 100% of in-house demand, reducing reliance on external suppliers and further enhancing operational integration.
