DEAR FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS,
The Directors of Arif Habib Corporation Limited (AHCL) present herewith the Directors' report of the Company together with condensed interim consolidated and unconsolidated financial statements for the first quarter ended September 30, 2025.
THE ECONOMYThe first quarter of FY26 reflected cautious optimism, with improving macroeconomic indicators and renewed investor confidence. Inflation averaged 4.2%, down from 9.2% last year, supported by stable commodity prices and prudent fiscal management. The Rupee remained steady, while the State Bank maintained the policy rate at 11%. The KSE-100 index improved by 31.7% during the quarter under review.
Workers' remittances rose 8.4% year-on-year to USD 9.5 billion, and exports grew 11% to USD
6.7 billion. During the first quarter of FY26, the current account recorded a cumulative deficit of
$514 million, indicating contained external pressures.
Following the end of the first quarter, Pakistan and the IMF reached a staff-level agreement on the second review of the 37-month Extended Fund Facility (EFF) and the first review of the 28-month Resilience and Sustainability Facility (RSF), pending Executive Board approval. Upon approval, Pakistan will access about USD 1.2 billion under both arrangements.
FINANCIAL RESULTSDuring the three-months period ended September 30, 2025, Arif Habib Corporation Limited delivered a robust financial performance. On a consolidated basis, profit after tax attributable to equity holders stood at PKR 4,217.02 million, compared to PKR 2,904.37 million in the corresponding period last year. Earnings per share (EPS) on a consolidated basis increased to PKR 1.00, up from PKR 0.69 (restated), primarily driven by improved performance of group companies such as Arif Habib Limited, Power Cement, Fatima Fertilizer and Javedan Corporation. While Sachal Energy remains key contributor, its profitability was slightly lower compared to the corresponding quarter.
On an unconsolidated basis, the Company posted a profit after tax of PKR 15,604.33 million, compared to PKR 3,339.40 million in the prior period, resulting in an EPS of PKR 3.70 compared

to PKR 0.79 (restated). This strong performance was primarily attributable to higher dividend income, capital gains, and favourable remeasurement gains on investments.
PERFORMANCE OF SUBSIDIARIES AND ASSOCIATESThe Group companies exhibited an improved performance during the quarter under review. Arif Habib Limited recorded a notable improvement in profitability, with profit after tax increasing to PKR 246.39 million from PKR 136.55 million in the corresponding quarter last year, supported by enhanced market activity. Sachal Energy Development maintained its strong operational performance, posting a profit of PKR 1,538.15 million, moderately lower than the previous year. Fatima Fertilizer Company Limited delivered another solid quarter, with consolidated profit of PKR 11,976.20 million, reflecting continued operational growth. The real estate associate, Javedan Corporation Limited, performed well, posting a profit after tax of PKR 712 million.
Encouragingly, operational improvements and market recovery trends have also begun to reflect positively in the performance of Aisha Steel Mills Limited and Power Cement Limited. Aisha Steel posted a profit after tax of PKR 82.04 million during the quarter, compared to a loss of PKR
843.12 million in the same period last year, driven by higher volumes, improved gross margins, and lower financial costs. Power Cement demonstrated a significant turnaround, recording a profit of PKR 804.36 million against a loss of PKR 492.16 million in the corresponding period last year, primarily due to growing exports, higher demand, improved cost efficiencies, and reduced finance costs.
FUTURE OUTLOOKPakistan's economy is expected to remain stable in the current year despite the recent floods in the provinces of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab.
Our investee companies are well placed to capitalize on these improving economic conditions. Brokerage activity is gaining traction, fertilizer, power, and real estate remain resilient, while cement and steel are set to benefit from a revival in construction demand. The equity market outlook remains positive, reflecting renewed investor confidence and sustained growth potential. Our Company's consolidated financial performance is expected to strengthen over time, supported by its diversified investments across premium sectors including fertilizers, cement, wind power, securities brokerage and investment, real estate development, and steel.
