Pak Datacom Limited: performance and outlook

Pak Datacom Limited’s profit fell sharply in the first nine months of FY26, with net earnings down 88.35 percent year-on-year to Rs12.83 million, Business Recorder reported. Sales declined 16.51 percent to Rs1,066.291 million as revenue from data communication, specialised projects and solar equipment weakened, while telecom infrastructure income was stable.

Higher operating expenses and a 37.16 percent drop in gross profit added pressure, taking operating profit 72.53 percent lower and reducing the net margin to 1.20 percent from 8.63 percent a year earlier. For the full year ended June 2025, sales had risen 10.13 percent, but profit was 20.43 percent lower at Rs152.95 million. The report identifies connectivity, digital services, solar sales and expansion into areas such as cloud and cybersecurity as potential growth avenues.
