Engro Fertilizers Limited (EFERT): Attractive D/Y despite near term challenges – By JS Research

Aug 5 2025


JS Global Capital


  • Engro Fertilizers Ltd. (EFERT) continues to remain our top defensive yielding stock, with a decent CY26E dividend yield of 13%. The company faces pressure due to sub-optimal farm economics, which has impacted volumes, and a disparity in gas prices, resulting in continued discounts and a higher debt burden.
  • The ongoing slowdown in fertilizer demand leading to build-up of urea inventory remains a key concern for the sector. In its recently held corporate briefing session, EFERT’s management stated that if current local dynamics persist and exports are not allowed, urea inventory could exceed 1mn tons by CY25 end.
  • Elevated inventory levels support a strong case for urea exports, especially when compared to 15yr. avg. year-end inventory of 309k tons excluding CY16, when similarly, high levels prompted export allowances. Our estimates discussed below suggest that Urea exports may expand the CY25 DY by up to 2% if the govt allows it in 4QCY25, however, we await further clarity.

Engro Fertilizers Limited (EFERT): Gradual Revenue Recovery Amid Ongoing Challenges - By IIS Research

Jul 30 2025


Ismail Iqbal Securities


  • EFERT announced its 2QCY25 results today. On a consolidated basis, EPS stood at PKR 4.17, slightly below our expectation of PKR 4.50. Revenue rose by 66% QoQ, driven by a 66% increase in urea offtake and a 132% surge in DAP offtake. PAT increased by 92% QoQ. Gross margins came in at 31%, compared to 35% in the previous quarter. The YoY improvement in financial performance is largely due to the low base in 2QCY24, which was impacted by a plant turnaround during that period.
  • Inventory levels remain elevated, with EFERT holding 535KT of Urea, accounting for 42% of total industry inventory. The company has faced challenges in offtake, largely due to higher bag prices compared to competitors, driven by elevated feed gas costs.

  • 2QCY25: EPS: PKR 4.2; DPS: 4.3; PAT: PKR 5.5Bn, up 2.3xYoY – below expectations
  • EFERT’s net sales clocked-in at ~PKR 50Bn in 2QCY25, up significantly by 66%QoQ on the back of increase in the overall offtake by 72%QoQ (Urea and DAP off-take went up by 66% and 1.3x, respectively). Gross margins arrived at 31% in 2QCY25, down 4ppts on the back of lower sales margins as the Company maintained discount offers (PKR 100 per bag) on Urea in order to regain market share. Finance cost went up by 66%QoQ in 2QFY25 as the company increased working capital to fund the ongoing “Pressure Enhancement Project”. Earnings arrived at PKR 5.5Bn in 2QCY25, up 92%QoQ due to increase in the overall off-take and massive surge in other income by 3.1xQoQ i.e. mainly from the financial assets. Lastly, the Company announced an interim cash dividend of PKR 4.3/sh. for the quarter, taking the total payout to PKR 6.5/sh. in 1HCY25.
Pakistan Fertilizer: FFC/ EFERT: 2QCY25 to see recovery in earnings - By JS Research

Jul 9 2025


JS Global Capital


  • We present 2QCY25 earnings estimates for Fauji Fertilizer Company Limited (FFC) and Engro Fertilizers Limited (EFERT), where we expect the earnings to improve led by increase in Urea and DAP volume by 3% YoY and 15% YoY.
  • FFC is expected to post EPS of Rs14.5 with DPS of Rs11.25. Despite weaker sales, FFC is expected to remain in a better position compared to peers led by comparative advantage amid lower gas tariff coupled with higher dividend income during the quarter.
  • EFERT is likely to post recovery in earnings which remained under pressure last year amid Enven plant turnaround. However continued discounts and higher inventory pileups will continue to impact company’s operations. Accordingly, the company is likely to report an EPS of Rs4.6 (3.7x higher YoY), along with a dividend of Rs4.5/share.

Apr 22 2025


Taurus Securities


  • 1QCY25: EPS: PKR 2.2; DPS: 2.3; PAT: PKR 2.9Bn, down 63%YoY – above expectations
  • Net sales clocked-in at ~PKR 30Bn in 1QCY25, down significantly by 59%YoY on the back of decrease in Urea and DAP offtake by 58%YoY and 78%YoY, respectively. Gross margins arrived at 35% in 1QCY25, up 12pptsYoY due to improving cost efficiencies. However, EFERT’s market share dropped (down 10ppts to 23% in 1QCY25) amid amalgamation of FFBL into FFC (took effect from 3QCY24) which has forced the company to sell Urea bags at significantly discounted prices in order to overcome the pressure of continuous fall in market share i.e. highest Urea bag prices (impact of availing higher feed gas i.e. PKR 1,597/MMBTU) compared to the peer companies. Earnings arrived at PKR 2.9Bn in 1QCY25, down 63%YoY due to massive surge in finance cost (up 5.8xYoY) amid increase in borrowings to fund the ongoing “Pressure Enhancement Project”. Lastly, the Company announced an interim cash dividend of PKR 2.3/sh. for the quarter.

Pakistan Economy: Aug’25 CPI likely to clock in at 4.1% - By Insight Research

Aug 29 2025


Insight Securities


  • Headline inflation is estimated at ~4.1% for Aug’25, compared to ~9.6% in SPLY and ~4.1% in preceding month. On MoM basis, inflation is expected to inch up by ~0.4%, amid increase in prices of food items the impact of which has been negated by lower electricity charges and decline in LPG price.
  • Within the SPI basket, items that recorded significant increase in prices during the period are as follows, Tomato (38.8↑%), Onions (21.5↑%), Eggs (9.9%↑), Fresh vegetables (4.0%↑) & Wheat (4.0%↑). On the flip side, prices of the following items eased off during the month, Fresh fruits (9.9%↓), LPG (9.8%↓), Potato (5.1%↓), Pulse moong (4.6%↓) & Sugar (4.1%↓).
  • We anticipate that the SBP will keep the policy rate unchanged in upcoming MPC, as the full impact of cumulative 1,100bps reduction in policy rate is still unfolding. The real sector remains in recovery mode following the strain of elevated inflation and sharp currency depreciation, both of which eroded purchasing power of masses. Furthermore, central bank’s tone in the last MPC suggested a pause for now, which will provide clarity to the market and encourage credit offtake in the coming months, given that no immediate cut in borrowing costs is expected. Hence, it appears prudent to maintain the policy rate at its current level and wait for the steep decline in interest rates to translate into real economic activity.
