Sana Industries Limited: performance and outlook

According to Business Recorder, Sana Industries Limited (PSX: SNAI) reported that its net sales fell 30.41 percent across the nine months of the current fiscal year, to Rs1258.105 million. The company linked the decline to heavier competition from imported yarn, especially from China, where cheaper energy lets textile mills offer lower prices. Even so, its net loss narrowed by 49.19 percent to Rs60.97 million.

A shift in energy sourcing helped costs. After relying heavily on captive power earlier in the period, the company moved to a mix of renewable sources and grid electricity, which reduced its cost of sales by 33.75 percent. Gross margin rose to 10.83 percent from 6.33 percent a year earlier, while operating profit grew 65 percent and the operating margin reached 5.19 percent.

Looking ahead, the company is adjusting its energy mix to cut costs and stay price competitive, and it plans capital spending to expand solar capacity. A 1.1 MW solar plant was commissioned in January 2026. The company is also targeting the southern market, which sits close to its manufacturing site, to reduce logistics costs.
