QUARTERLY REPORT 2025 01

DIRECTORS REVIEW

The Directors of your Company are pleased to present the financial report for the nine months ended 30 June 2025, together with the condensed interim financial information of the Company for the same period.

Composition of Board

The composition of the Board is as follows:

  1. Male 5

  2. Female 2

Out of the above:

  1. Executive Directors: 1

  2. Non-Executive Directors: 3

  3. Independent Directors: 3

Business Overview

Archroma's major consumption markets i.e. (the Textiles' and Construction industry) continue to show positive development, both locally as well as for exports, during the third quarter of the Financial Year under review, despite of higher energy and commodity prices and on-going Russia-Ukraine, Middle East and other regional conflicts.

In the light of the prevailing challenging business environment, your Company continued its fullest support to it's customers in meeting their demands and cost targets. As a consequence, it managed to achieve net sales of PKR 21,508 million during the nine months ended 30 June 2025, compared to PKR 19,060 million in the same period last year. Positive contributions from various savings and efficiency improvement programs launched at the end of last year along with market driven changes to the sales product mix further supported gross margins development, which improved to PKR 5,063 million compared to 3,432 million for the same period last year.

Moreover, considerably stable foreign exchange rates and reduced bank borrowing costs further contributed to improving the bottom-line profitability of your Company to PKR 914 million as compared to loss of PKR 308 million in the same period last year.

Future Outlook

The global business and trade environment has become increasingly complex following the imposition of country-specific import tariffs by USA in April, which has severely affected trade, logistics and consequentially the raw materials' supply chain and availability for the Company. Although the balance of trade and forex reserves' situation in Pakistan has considerably improved it is expected to remain under pressure in the coming months due to evolving global trade environment and Pakistan's short-term fiscal commitments. However, we believe that the recent US tariff changes currently under review, may bring opportunites for Pakistan's Textiles and other export businesses, in the medium to long-term compared to other competing countries.

The Management of your Company is confident that the stringent measures already in place for operational adaptability, costs efficiency and net working capital management, along with a strong projects' pipeline aimed at increasing market penetration and portfolio expansion, particularly following the Huntsman Textile Effects' acquisition, shall further support new business development and initiatives during the current financial year.

Dividend

In view of the current financial performance of the Company for the period ended 30 June 2025, the Board of Directors announced interim cash dividend of 200% i.e. PKR 20 per share.

On behalf of the Board

        The Company's activities are exposed to a variety of financial risk namely credit risk, foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, price risk and liquidity risk. The Company has established adequate procedures to manage these risks.

        Fair Value Hierarchy

        When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company uses observable market data as far as possible. Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:

        Level 1: Fair value measurements using quoted (unadjusted) in active markets for identical asset or liability.

        Level 2: Fair value measurements using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derive from prices).

        Level 3: Fair value measurements using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (i.e. unobservable inputs).

        1. Accounting classification and fair values

          The following table shows the carrying amounts and fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities, including their levels in the fair value hierarchy for financial instruments measured at fair value.
