Archroma Pakistan financial results for the year ended 30 September 2026 show annual profit of Rs1.96 billion, up 66.58% from Rs1.18 billion a year earlier. The Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) listed firm, ticker ARPL, also reported a matching rise in basic and diluted earnings per share, which reached Rs56.72 from Rs34.05.
Sales, costs and margins
Net sales increased 9.36% to Rs29.97 billion. Gross profit advanced 15.92% to Rs7.66 billion, as the cost of sales grew more slowly than revenue. That mix left the company with a stronger gross margin than in the prior year, even before lower financing costs and other items below the operating line.
Higher operating expenses and a 38.08% increase in the income tax charge trimmed part of the improvement. Even so, the overall Archroma Pakistan profit for the year still rose by about two-thirds.
What lifted operating profit
Operating profit rose 29.54% to Rs2.81 billion. The company said the result was also supported by a Rs315.72 million gain from remeasuring the Sindh Infrastructure Development Cess payable—a provincial infrastructure levy—and by a 31.05% reduction in finance costs. Those items helped offset the drag from higher operating spend and a heavier tax charge.
Taken together, the Archroma Pakistan financial results point to growth on the top line, better gross profitability, and a sharper lift at the bottom line once financing and the cess remeasurement are included.
Earnings per share and the stock
Earnings per share moved in step with profit, up 66.58% on both a basic and diluted basis. For shareholders, that is the clearest per-share measure of how much of the year’s profit was attributable to each share.
Market indications around the disclosure showed Archroma Pakistan shares near Rs364.86, down 3.34%. Price moves on any single day can reflect many factors beyond one set of annual numbers, and investors typically read full accounts and filings before drawing conclusions.
