⚡ Flash Summary

Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) announced a delay in the approval and announcement of its first-quarter accounts for the period ended September 30, 2025. The Board Audit Committee (BAC) met on November 26, 2025, to review the accounts but advised management to resubmit them for further consideration. Consequently, the formal presentation of the accounts to the full Board will be postponed, and the closed period for trading will continue until the first-quarter accounts are formally approved and announced to the PSX. The scheduled Board Meeting on November 29, 2025, will proceed to address non-financial agenda items.

Strength: 6/10

🎯 Investment Thesis

Given the uncertainty surrounding SSGC’s first-quarter results and the delay in their approval, a HOLD recommendation is appropriate. Investors should await the formal release of the approved accounts before making any investment decisions. A price target cannot be reasonably established until the financial results are available and analyzed.

⚡ Flash Summary

Leather Up Limited (LEUL) reported a challenging FY2025 with a significant decline in financial performance. Revenue decreased sharply, leading to net losses compared to profits in the previous year. The company attributes the downturn to weakened export demand in Europe and increased input costs. Management is focused on cost control, market diversification, and securing new export orders to improve performance.

Signal: SELL 📉
Strength: 8/10
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Time Horizon: MEDIUM_TERM

📌 Key Takeaways

  • 📉 Revenue decreased significantly to Rs 12.09m in FY2025 from Rs 27.53m in FY2024.
  • ❌ The company reported a Profit/(Loss) Before Tax of (Rs 4.32m) in FY2025, compared to a profit of Rs 0.57m in FY2024.
  • ⛔ Profit/(Loss) After Tax was (Rs 4.51m) in FY2025, a substantial drop from Rs 0.32m in FY2024.
  • 📉 EPS declined to (Rs 0.75) in FY2025 from Rs 0.05 in FY2024.
  • ⚠️ Accumulated Loss increased to (Rs 48.98m) in FY2025.
  • 🌍 Weakened export demand in Europe due to prevailing economic conditions drove the sales decline.
  • 💸 Gross margin reduced due to increased cost of goods sold and competitive pricing pressures.
  • 📈 Operating loss significantly increased to Rs 4.99m, compared to Rs 90.8k in the prior year.
  • 💼 Current ratio improved to 3.63x compared to prior year (3.34x).
  • ✔️ Net Working Capital is positive, supporting operations at Rs 14.13m.
  • 🏦 Strong banking relationships with MCB, UBL, and Faysal Bank ensure access to necessary facilities.
  • 🌍 Management is actively exploring new export markets to diversify revenue streams.
  • 🛡️ Cost control measures and supplier negotiations are being implemented to manage input expenses.
  • 📊 Proactive efforts led to securing export orders of Rs 22m in Q1 FY2026, signalling a potential positive shift.

🎯 Investment Thesis

Based on the significant decline in financial performance and increased accumulated loss, a SELL recommendation is warranted. The company faces several risks, and while management is implementing mitigation strategies, the overall outlook remains challenging. A price target would depend on a more detailed valuation analysis, but the current information suggests a negative outlook. I expect this downturn to extend into the medium term.
