Aug 7 2025

  • 4QFY25 (Consolidated) – EPS: PKR 3.5, PAT: ~PKR 3.6Bn, up 30%QoQ – above expectations.
  • MLFC’s net sales arrived at ~PKR 17Bn in 4QFY25, up 4%QoQ due to increase in overall dispatches by 4%QoQ in 4QFY25. Gross margin increased by 6pptsQoQ to 41% in 4QFY25, mainly due to lower cost of production as the Company has one of the cheapest fuel mix i.e. only 4% generated through National Grid and expansion of biomass generation – cheapest source of energy. 4QFY25 PAT clocked-in at PKR 3.6Bn, up 30%QoQ due to massive increase in other income by 24xQoQ on account of significant increase in short-term investments (mainly in mutual funds) during 4QFY25 i.e. surged to PKR 11Bn in FY25 compared to PKR 4Bn in FY24 and increase in AGL’s shareholdings (currently holds 33.66%) – likely to benefit form revaluation on the conversion of preference shares to ordinary shares. Further, another contribution to higher PAT is the lower tax rate compared to other peer companies as Maple Leaf Power is tax exempted. Lastly, the company did not announce a cash dividend at the year end. FY25 EPS arrived at PKR 11.0.sh., PAT up 66%YoY.

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.

Pakistan Oilfields Limited (POL): Falling production and lower oil prices dampen bottom-line – By AKD Research

Aug 11 2025


AKD Securities


  • Company reported net sales of PkR12.3bn during the quarter, down 18% YoY/16%QoQ. The decline was due to significantly reduced gas and oil output of 43mmcfd/4.1k bpd (as per PPIS), down 34%/15%YoY compared to SPLY, amidst natural decline and line-pack pressure in gas transmission system. Furthermore, lower average oil prices and lower well-head prices also contributed to the decline in revenue.
  • Exploration expenses remained elevated at PkR1.4bn, likely due to the 3D seis mic surveys conducted by the company in Pariwali D&P (POL: 82.5%) and Ikhlas E.L. (POL: 80%) blocks during the period.
  • We reiterate our ‘BUY’ stance for POL, with Dec’25 TP of PkR800/sh and DY of 14% during FY26.
