Pakgen Power’s 9MCY26 loss widens to Rs325m

Pakgen Power Ltd (PSX: PKGP) recorded a net loss of Rs325.50m for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, Mettis Global reported. The deficit was 9.93% larger than the Rs296.09m loss a year earlier, while loss per share rose to Rs1.69 from Rs0.80.

Weaker investment gains, a Rs180.64m charge on initial recognition of an investment, and Rs195.98m in operating and administrative expenses weighed on the result. Profit from operations fell 83.52% to Rs217.92m, although the loss from discontinued operations narrowed to Rs252.75m from Rs1.25bn. Reduced levy and taxation charges also provided some offset, but the company still reported a Rs43.65m loss before tax, compared with a Rs15.24m profit in the corresponding period.
