DIRECTORS' REVIEW

The Directors of Nestlé Pakistan Limited (the "Company") are submitting the interim report, along with the condensed interim financial statements of the Company for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024.

Business Performance Review:

Sales for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, stand at PKR 149.2 billion, reflecting a decline in growth by 1.3% compared to the same period last year. The economic environment remained challenging after imposition of taxes introduced in the 2024-25 Finance Bill, which were passed onto consumers through price increases putting pressure on the topline growth. Lower topline along with headwinds in commodity and energy prices further deteriorated gross profit margin. The continued investment behind brands, coupled with a loss in scale, adversely impacted the operating profit.

The financial performance for the nine months period is summarized below:
