Fatima Fertilizer (FATIMA<\/a>)<\/strong> is expected to post excellent financial results for the second quarter of 2025. The company is likely to earn a profit of PKR 12.8 billion<\/strong>, with earnings per share (EPS) of PKR 6.1<\/strong>, more than double last year\u2019s<\/strong> earnings for the same period!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s a breakdown of what\u2019s behind this strong performance <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fertilizer sales are booming<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

FATIMA saw a major increase in product sales in 2QCY25:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Urea sales<\/strong> more than doubled<\/strong> to 177,000 tons<\/strong>, up from 83,000 tons last year.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • CAN (Calcium Ammonium Nitrate)<\/strong> and NP (Nitrophosphate)<\/strong> sales also went up by 57% and 27%<\/strong>, respectively.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • DAP sales<\/strong> surged over 3 times<\/strong> to 13,000 tons, compared to just 4,000 tons in 2QCY24.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    This strong demand helped FATIMA\u2019s total revenue reach PKR 68.8 billion<\/strong>, a huge jump from PKR 42.4 billion last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Better profit margins and lower costs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    FATIMA also enjoyed better profitability:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Gross margins<\/strong> (the money left after paying for production) increased by about 6 percentage points<\/strong> from last year.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Prices of fertilizers were higher, helping boost overall profits.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Finance costs<\/strong> (interest on loans) dropped by 50% compared to last quarter<\/strong>, thanks to lower debt.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • However, other income<\/strong> went down due to less cash in hand compared to previous periods.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Quick summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      What this means?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Fatima Fertilizer is showing strong earnings growth<\/strong>, driven by higher sales across its product range and better prices. With reduced debt and strong demand for fertilizers, FATIMA appears to be in a solid position going into the second half of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
