Fatima Fertilizer posted consolidated earnings of Rs29.96bn for the nine months to September 30, 2026, up 3.6% from Rs28.91bn a year earlier, Mettis Global reported. Earnings per share rose to Rs14.27 from Rs13.77, while third-quarter profit fell 21% year on year to Rs9.52bn.

Revenue increased 8.8% to Rs194.55bn, and gross profit climbed 21.8% to Rs78.15bn as the gross margin widened to 40.17% from 35.90%. Higher administrative and distribution expenses were partly offset by lower finance costs, but other income dropped 63.7% to Rs4.61bn and the loss from associates widened to Rs484.45m. Profit before tax advanced 6.2% to Rs48.90bn, while taxation rose 10.4% to Rs18.95bn.

The results show stronger nine-month core sales and margins, alongside a weaker third quarter and lower non-core income. This earnings update is relevant to investors tracking Fatima Fertilizer and the listed fertilizer sector.
