Fauji Cement Company Limited: performance and outlook

Business Recorder reported that Fauji Cement Company Limited (FCCL) posted net profit of Rs16,182.912 million for 2026, up 21.44 percent from a year earlier. Net sales rose 5.32 percent to Rs93,690.18 million, while earnings per share reached Rs6.60 and the net profit margin stood at 17.27 percent. The company credited better local dispatches and higher retention prices for the sales gain.

Gross profit rose 3.64 percent, but the gross margin eased to 34.92 percent after a spike in coal prices in the final quarter. Administrative expenses climbed 13.55 percent, with higher legal and professional charges tied to the purchase of 84.06 percent of Attock Cement Pakistan Limited, a deal done jointly with Kot Addu Power Company Limited. Net finance cost fell 49.36 percent after early loan repayments reduced outstanding debt, and an associate contributed Rs237.38 million.

The report notes that net profit has set new highs each year since 2021, following a net loss in 2020. Operating profit rose 1.67 percent in 2026, though the operating margin fell to 28.46 percent. As of June 30, 2025, associated companies and related parties held 66.81 percent of the shares.
