National Feed Mill Limited reported a narrower quarterly loss in the first quarter of FY2025–26, supported by improved cost efficiency measures despite continued pressure on revenue.
For the July–September 2025 quarter, the company posted a negative earnings per share of Tk0.08, an improvement from Tk0.24 loss per share in the same period last year, according to unaudited financial statements.
In a regulatory filing with the Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) the company attributed the reduced loss to tighter cost control initiatives, a revision of depreciation policies, and the adoption of International Accounting Standard 12.
These adjustments helped lift gross profit margins and partially offset the impact of lower revenue during the period.
Net operating cash flow per share also improved to Tk0.02, up from Tk0.01 a year earlier. Management linked the rise to reduced payments to suppliers and more efficient management of operating expenses, reflecting improved short-term liquidity position.
Meanwhile, net asset value per share declined marginally to Tk11.02 on 30 September 2025, compared to Tk11.09 at the end of June 2025. The decline was mainly attributed to the continued negative earnings during the quarter.
National Feed shares surged 9.83 per cent to Tk19 apiece on the DSE on Tuesday.
