  • 2QFY26 EPS (Un-consolidated): PKR 5.9; 2QFY26 EPS (Consolidated): PKR 15.4 – inline with expectations.

Gross margins hovered around 36% during 2QFY26, down 3pptsQoQ due to lower retention prices. Net earnings arrived at PKR 8.6Bn in 2QFY26, down 41%QoQ mainly due to lower other income i.e. down 58%QoQ on the back of absence of dividend income from LEPCL. Moreover, consolidated EPS clocked-in at ~PKR 15.4/sh. in 2QFY26, driven by continued contribution from subsidiaries including LCI, Lucky Electric & Lucky Motors etc, respectively.

  • We upgrade LUCK to Buy from Hold, raising our SoTP-based TP to Rs570/sh from Rs480/sh, implying a 17% upside, driven mainly by a stronger contribution from core cement operations (Rs286/sh; 50% of SoTP) following an 8%/ 6% increase in our FY26E/ FY27F standalone earnings forecasts and a reduction in our risk-free rate assumption to 11% from 12% previously.

Commercial Banks: Flat Earnings; Payouts Intact – By IIS Research

Feb 3 2026


Ismail Iqbal Securities


  • We preview the IIS Banking Universe’s 4QCY25 results, where aggregate earnings are expected to remain largely flat QoQ at PKR 100bn, while delivering a 16.5% YoY growth. Despite continued pressure on net interest margins amid a declining interest-rate environment, earnings remained resilient, supported by balance-sheet expansion, contained credit costs, and disciplined expense management.
  • Net interest income is expected to increase 3.6% QoQ to PKR 340.5bn and 11.7% YoY, even as reinvestment yields remained under pressure. Margin compression was partially offset by volumetric growth, with deposits rising 20% YoY and 5.7% QoQ, supporting earning asset expansion. An improving deposit mix further helped cushion margins. On a full-year basis, CY25E NII is projected to grow 15.4% YoY, reflecting the sector’s ability to navigate a softer rate cycle.
Commercial Banks: 4QCY25 Previews: Stable earnings; Payouts intact – By Insight Research

Feb 3 2026


Insight Securities


  • We estimate profitability of ISL coverage banks to inch up by 16% YoY, while same is expected to decline by 2% QoQ. The YoY increase is mainly driven by lower ETR for the quarter compared to SPLY, further aided by volumetric expansion. While, QoQ decline is attributable to slight moderation in NIMs. Net Interest Income of the sector is likely to decline as impact of lower policy rate translates into asset yields.
  • However, some of the impact is likely to offset by balance sheet expansion as deposits grew by ~2.7% QoQ. We estimate HBL/UBL/MCB/MEBL/BAFL to post EPS of PKR11.0/13.8/11.9/12.5/3.5, respectively. We expect dividend payouts to remain robust amid healthy profits and decent buffer on adequacy ratios and expect HBL/UBL/MCB/ MEBL/BAFL to announce DPS of PKR5.0/8.0/9.0/7.0/2.5, respectively.

Ismail Iqbal Securities


  • FFC announced its 4QCY25 results today, reporting an unconsolidated EPS of PKR 11.20 for the quarter and 51.70 on annual basis, which is lower than our expectation of PKR 16.1. The underperformance was mainly attributed to lower than anticipated gross margin which came down by 5.6% to 25.2% as compare to last quarter 30.8%.
  • Net sales increased by 18% QoQ to PKR 149.7bn, primarily driven by improved fertilizer offtakes following a period of weak demand in the prior season. However, the cost of sales rose by 27% QoQ, offsetting the gains from the better offtakes. Finance charges remained flat, while higher than expected other income was observed. We await the detailed accounts for further clarification. The company declared a quarterly cash dividend of PKR 8.5 per share, bringing the total annual dividend to PKR 37 per share. The YoY increase in earnings also reflect the merger with FFBL effective from second half of CY25. The effective tax rate for the quarter stood at 47% and whereas on annual basis at 39%.
