- Indus Motor Company Limited (INDU) announced its 1QFY26 results earlier today where the company posted PAT of PkR6.7bn (EPS: PkR85.5) vs. PkR5.1bn (EPS: PkR64.8) in SPLY, up 32%YoY primarily due to increase in volumetric sales, along with improved margins. The result was above our expectation due to higher-than anticipated gross margins. Additionally, company announced an interim cash dividend of PkR51.0/sh.
- Company’s revenue clocked in at PkR61.7bn vs. PkR41.6bn in 1QFY25, up 48% YoY. The surge was primarily driven by a 61%YoY increase in sales volumes, totaling 9,889 units compared to 6,160 units in SPLY, with the rise attributed to the increase in sales of Yaris amid facelift launch and elevated IMV sales.
- We maintain our ’Buy’ stance with Jun’26 target price of PkR3,585/sh for the scrip due to: i) high localization reduces exposure to potential currency devalu ation, ii) first mover advantage in the HEV segment, and iii) strong presence in rural areas.
