Fauji Fertilizer Q4 earnings come in below industry expectations

Fauji Fertilizer Company Limited (FFC) on Thursday announced its financial results for the fourth quarter of 2025, reporting earnings that came in below industry expectations due to weaker-than-anticipated gross margins. The company posted an unconsolidated quarterly profit of Rs15.9 billion, translating into earnings per share (EPS) of Rs11.20. While profits rose 12% year-on-year, they declined 17 percent quarter-on-quarter. For the full year 2025, FFC reported earnings of Rs73.5 billion (EPS: Rs51.69), reflecting a 14 percent YoY increase.The weaker quarterly performance was primarily driven by margin compression. Gross margins stood at 25.2 percent in 4Q2025, down from 25.9 percent in 4Q2024 and 30.8 percent in 3Q2025, falling short of market expectations. According to industry channel checks, the decline is largely attributable to an impairment charge of Rs8–9 billion booked against sales tax receivables.
