Attock Petroleum Limited (APL<\/a>)<\/strong> is getting ready to announce its financial results for the fourth quarter of FY25 on August 11, 2025<\/strong>. Here\u2019s a simple breakdown of what\u2019s expected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quarterly performance (4QFY25)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Earnings per share (EPS):<\/strong> PKR 19<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Profit after tax:<\/strong> ~PKR 2.4 billion<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • This means profits are up about 9%<\/strong> compared to the same period last year, but down 7%<\/strong> from the last quarter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Sales:<\/strong> Around PKR 120.9 billion, down 7% from last year, but up 5%<\/strong> from the previous quarter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • This sales growth compared to last quarter is thanks to 17% higher fuel volumes<\/strong>, although volumes are still down 8%<\/strong> from last year.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Gross profit margins:<\/strong> Stable at about 3%<\/strong>, showing the company has maintained profitability despite volume changes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Other income:<\/strong> Expected to drop significantly from last year, mainly because of lower dividend earnings and smaller gains from mutual fund investments.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Net finance income:<\/strong> Down 22% YoY due to slightly lower returns on deposits and investments, as well as higher long-term liabilities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Expenses:<\/strong> Operating costs are down 29% YoY<\/strong>, and taxes are down 17% YoY<\/strong>, helping support the bottom line.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Full-year performance (FY25)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • EPS:<\/strong> PKR 81<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Profit after tax:<\/strong> ~PKR 10 billion, down 27%<\/strong> from last year.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Sales:<\/strong> PKR 467.6 billion, down 11% YoY.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Gross profit:<\/strong> Down 23% YoY.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Both other income<\/strong> (-45% YoY) and net finance income<\/strong> (-23% YoY) took a hit, affecting the overall yearly performance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Dividend<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      APL is expected to announce a final cash dividend of PKR 20 per share<\/strong> for FY25.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

      APL\u2019s quarterly profits are showing resilience with a modest YoY increase, but the full-year picture reflects industry challenges like lower sales volumes and reduced investment income. The dividend shows the company is still committed to rewarding shareholders, even in a tough year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      If fuel volumes continue to recover and investment returns improve, APL could see stronger performance ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
