Renata PLC’s consolidated net profit jumped 37.2 per cent year on year to Tk101.76 crore in the July–September quarter, driven by higher revenue and lower finance expenses.
Earnings per share (EPS) rose to Tk8.87 from Tk6.47 in the same quarter a year earlier, according to the unaudited financial statements approved by the board on Sunday.
The company attributed the improvement to revenue growth and lower finance expenses, which it said reflected the impact of capital restructuring and management of foreign exchange and interest rate risks.
Standalone net profit also increased, reaching Tk98.70 crore from Tk68.19 crore, while standalone EPS rose to Tk8.61 from Tk5.95.
The quarterly growth followed a stronger full-year performance. Consolidated EPS rose to Tk31.76 in FY26 from Tk19.36 in FY25, and the board recommended a 55 per cent cash dividend for the year ended on 30 June 2026.
Consolidated net asset value per share stood at Tk339.31 at the end of September, up from Tk329.19 at the end of June.
Net operating cash flow per share rose to Tk21.98 from Tk12.62 in the same quarter a year earlier. Renata attributed the increase to higher operating profit and favourable working capital movements, including lower cash tied up in inventories.
Renata shares closed 0.92 per cent lower at Tk420 on the Dhaka Stock Exchange on Sunday.
The company’s annual general meeting will be held on 19 December at 11:30am through a digital platform. The record date is 15 November.
