Gross written premium increased by 6% year-over-year (YoY) to PKR 21,704 million, while net premium rose 9% to PKR 7,447 million. However, underwriting results experienced a significant decline of 74%, falling to PKR 200 million. Despite this, investment income surged by 51% to PKR 5,135 million, contributing to a profit before tax of PKR 5,220 million, a 28% increase YoY. Earnings per share (EPS) also saw a substantial rise of 36% to PKR 16.43.

Signal: HOLD ⏸️

The company needs to address the issues impacting underwriting profitability and demonstrate sustainable earnings growth. The current price target is PKR 20, with a medium-term horizon. This is based on the EPS and a conservative PE ratio.

Signal: HOLD ⏸️
Strength: 4/10
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Time Horizon: MEDIUM_TERM

📌 Key Takeaways

  • 📉 Chenab Limited reported a financial loss of Rs. 163.174 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025.

  • ✅ The scheme was approved by 100% of shareholders and 90.40% of secured creditors.

🎯 Investment Thesis

HOLD. Despite the positive developments regarding the Scheme of Arrangement and potential benefits from US tariffs, Chenab Limited faces significant financial and operational challenges that warrant a cautious approach. The company’s negative profitability, working capital issues, and high debt levels create substantial uncertainty. A hold recommendation is justified until the company demonstrates sustained improvements in financial performance and successful execution of its turnaround strategy. Further clarity is required on the company’s ability to stabilize operations, generate profits, and meet its financial obligations before considering a more optimistic investment stance.

⚡ Flash Summary

Quetta Textile Mills Limited (QUET) has applied to the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) for an extension to hold its Annual General Meeting (AGM) for the year ended June 30, 2025. The company cites delays in the finalization of the statutory audit as the primary reason, attributing this to ongoing audit procedures and confirmations necessary for the preparation of audited financial statements. The company seeks a one-month extension to comply with regulatory requirements and present duly audited financials. The previous AGM was held on October 28, 2024, and the company requests that the AGM be held within thirty days of SECP approval.

Signal: HOLD ⏸️

Time Horizon: SHORT_TERM

📌 Key Takeaways

  • 📅 QUET requests an extension for holding the AGM for the year ended June 30, 2025.
  • 🏛️ Application submitted under Section 132 & 233 of the Companies Act, 2017.

🎯 Investment Thesis

Based on the limited information, a HOLD recommendation is appropriate. The delay in the AGM and audit completion creates uncertainty. A BUY or SELL recommendation would be premature without a thorough review of the audited financial statements. Once the financial statements are released and analyzed, the recommendation may be revisited. There is not enough information to provide a price target. A hold recommendation is applicable until the audited financials are released and analyzed.
