About the Entity

Jadeed Oil Extraction (Pvt.) Limited was incorporated in November 2017 and is engaged in oilseed crushing, solvent extraction, and edible oil refining. The Company has an installed crushing capacity of 180,000 MT per annum. Jadeed Oil is majority owned by Jadeed Feeds, along with members of the sponsoring family. The Company operates as a strategic support unit for the Jadeed Group’s poultry operations.

Rating Rationale

The assigned ratings of Jadeed Oil Extraction (Pvt.) Limited (“Jadeed Oil” or “the Company”) reflects strategic importance within the Jadeed Group, which maintains a well-established presence across Pakistan’s poultry value chain. The Company remains a key component of the Group’s vertical integration strategy, ensuring consistent availability of raw materials for group entities while mitigating customer concentration risk. The operating environment remains challenging, as nearly 90% of Pakistan’s edible oil requirements are met through imports, predominantly palm oil, with local production accounting for only around 10%. The Company demonstrated operational resilience amid challenging industry dynamics marked by volatile global commodity prices, exchange rate pressures, and elevated import dependency within Pakistan’s edible oil sector. Procurement challenges emerged following restrictions on GMO imports, limiting the availability of Non-GMO seeds. Management responded by diversifying raw material procurement across soybean, rapeseed, canola, and sunflower seeds, while also expanding tolling arrangements, supporting operational continuity and supply chain optimization. Revenue composition remained largely tilted towards meal sales to group companies, particularly Jadeed Feeds. However, the Company’s top line dipped in FY25, declining to PKR 8,807 million (FY24: PKR 18,752 million), reflecting subdued volumes and challenging market conditions. Profitability indicators remained under pressure due to elevated input costs, higher energy prices, alongside competitive market dynamics, keeping gross margins thin during FY25. Despite margin constraints, cash flow generation and liquidity indicators remained adequate, supported by a relatively effective working capital cycle. Notwithstanding this, performance rebounded in September 2025, with revenue recorded at PKR 1,368 million, primarily driven by tolling arrangements with Jadeed Feeds. Profitability indicators for the same period improved markedly, with gross profit margin and net profit margin standing at 36.4% and 18.4%, respectively. The Company’s financial risk profile remained adequate, as leverage indicators improved on the back of controlled expenditure and a prudent financing mix. Borrowings continue to be predominantly short-term in nature, aligned with working capital requirements, while long-term debt remains limited. The ratings also factor in the extensive industry experience and strong oversight of the sponsoring family, with their active involvement in day-to-day operations and strategic decision-making provides comfort.

Key Rating Drivers

The Positive Outlook reflects expectations of gradual improvement in profitability, stable demand from group companies, and better absorption of fixed costs. Sustaining the outlook will depend on the Company’s ability to maintain margins amid commodity price volatility, manage foreign exchange exposure effectively, and further strengthen cash flow coverages. Any sustained weakening in earnings, liquidity, or debt metrics could exert pressure on the ratings.

Profile
Legal Structure

Jadeed Oil Extraction (Pvt.) Limited ('Jadeed Oil' or 'the Company') was incorporated in Nov-17 as a Private Limited Company as per the Company Act, 2017.


Background

Mr. Jan Mohammad Javaid, along with his brothers, set up a poultry business in the 1980's. In 2008, the Group set up its first feed mill with a manufacturing capacity of 60MT/hr. In 2016, another feed mill was setup with a capacity of 120MT/hr. The Group is among the few players in the industry that imports and breeds grandparent poultry stock (Ross - 308). The Group imports Ross – 308 from Aviagen, a USA based Company. In 2017, the Group setup its edible oil mill, as its backward integration plan. Lately, the Group increased its combined feed manufacturing capacity to 240MT/hr and merged Jadeed Farms and Jadeed GP Farms with and into Jadeed Feeds.


Operations

Jadeed Oil is primarily engaged in the process of seed filtering and crushing, oil extraction, and refining by mechanical and chemical processes. The Company primarily sells semi-refined oil and meal extracted from Soybean, rape and sunflower seed. Soap and Hull extracted as a by-product in the production process is also sold by the Company. As of FY24, the Company has a seed crushing capacity of 180,000 MT/ annum and a refining capacity of 36,500 MT/annum. Capacity utilization for seed crushing/solvent extraction posted a decreasing trend and stood at ~28% (FY24: ~43.4%) due to a low volume supply of soybean oil seed. During FY25, the company's refining capacity stood at 36,500MT/annum and utilization rate of 25%. During 1QFY26, the Company has a seed crushing capacity of 180,000 MT/ annum and a refining capacity of 36,500 MT/annum. However, actual production remained nil. The Company’s extraction facility is located in Khanewal. While, the head office is located in Satellite Town, Rawalpindi.

Business Risk
Industry Dynamics

Edible oil remains one of Pakistan’s largest imported commodities, with the industry marked by substantial import dependence, concentrated consumption patterns, and strong sensitivity to global price trends. Nearly 90% of the country’s edible oil is met through imports—primarily palm oil—while local production accounts for only about 10%. This heavy reliance has positioned Pakistan among the world’s top three palm oil importers. Indonesia and Malaysia remain the dominant suppliers, underpinning the country’s annual demand of roughly 5 million tonnes of ghee and cooking oil, including 3.5 million tonnes of imported palm oil. During the 5MFY24, Pakistan imported 1.319 million tonnes of palm oil valued at USD 1.26 billion, compared to 1.248 million tonnes worth USD 1.17 billion in the same period last year. The sector continues to face cost pressures, with import prices rising to around USD 1,100 per tonne in December 2024 from below USD 900 earlier in the year. Over 9MFY25, industry dynamics were shaped by global trends, as international palm and soybean oil prices averaged USD 1,007/MT and USD 1,097/MT, respectively, prompting corresponding movements in domestic prices. While prices remained elevated in early 2025, they eased in the second quarter amid declining inflation and a more stable exchange rate. Consumption recovered modestly, supported by population growth and gradual improvement in purchasing power. Sector revenues posted a slight YoY increase of around 1%, while gross profitability improved due to better input cost management. However, net margins stayed thin, underscoring the industry’s persistent exposure to external shocks. Looking ahead, the sector is expected to maintain stable performance, supported by a stronger PKR and improving macroeconomic fundamentals. Nonetheless, long-term resilience will depend on accelerating domestic oilseed cultivation to reduce reliance on global commodity cycles and enhance supply security.


Relative Position

Jadeed Oil has a stable market share of ~2% in terms of revenue, and ~2.1% in terms of production. However, theGroup is among the largest poultry players of the Pakistan.


Revenues

The Company’s revenue model is heavily anchored in the production of soybean meal, refined and crude soybean oil, and soybean hull, with a significant concentration risk arising from its reliance on "Jadeed Feeds," which absorbs approximately 83% of total output. During FY25, the Company reported a substantial 53% contraction in gross revenue to PKR 10,277 million, down from PKR 21,589 million in FY24, a downturn driven by a combination of diminished sales volumes and price volatility in the soybean meal segment. This sharp decline underscores a period of operational headwinds; however, the outlook remains cautiously optimistic as the Company is well-positioned to leverage rising global demand for edible oils, which may offer a strategic hedge against domestic volume fluctuations and stabilize future margins through higher price points.


Margins

Despite a significant reduction in raw material costs and a sharp contraction in finance costs—which plummeted from PKR 758 million to PKR 51 million—the Company’s profitability experienced severe compression across all tiers during FY25. The gross profit margin halved to 2.4% (FY24: 5.1%), a decline that trickled down to the operating level, where margins eroded from 4.4% to a marginal 0.5%, signaling that the drop in top-line revenue outpaced any operational efficiencies gained. This downward trajectory ultimately culminated in a net loss, with the net profit margin sliding into negative territory at -1.3% from a slim 0.3% in the prior year.


Sustainability

The Group has started a commercial venture for the construction of 35 storage facility. Land has been acquiredand partial sale and partial rental business model would be followed.


Financial Risk
Working capital

The Company’s cash conversion cycle saw a notable acceleration during FY25, with net working capital days improving to 55 days from 79 days in the prior year, primarily driven by an aggressive reduction in inventory holding periods. Gross working capital days decreased to 59 days (FY24: 81 days), largely due to a sharp contraction in raw material inventory, which fell to just 3 days from 59 days—a shift that likely reflects a lean inventory strategy or a tactical response to the year's lower sales volumes. However, this liquidity gain was partially offset by a significant elongation in the trade receivable cycle, which more than doubled to 41 days from 19 days, suggesting that the Company may be extending more generous credit terms to support its remaining sales or is facing slower collections from its primary customer. While the stable trade payable position (4 days vs. 1 day) indicates a disciplined payment schedule, the reliance on rapid inventory turnover to offset slowing receivables highlights a shift in liquidity risk that necessitates close monitoring of the Company's short-term cash flow stability.


Coverages

Despite a decline in absolute Free Cash Flow (FCF) to PKR 126 million from PKR 681 million in FY24, the Company’s debt-servicing capacity showed marked improvement due to a significant reduction in interest expenses. The Free Cash Flow to Operations (FCFO) over finance cost ratio rose to 2.6x from 0.9x, while the EBITDA-to-finance cost coverage ratio strengthened to 4.1x from 1.3x, indicating a more robust cushion against fixed financial obligations. This paradoxical improvement—where cash flow volume decreased but coverage ratios increased—is primarily a function of the sharp contraction in total finance costs rather than organic operational growth. While the enhanced coverage ratios suggest a lower risk of immediate default and provide the Company with greater financial flexibility, the underlying decline in absolute cash generation underscores the urgency of stabilizing core operations to ensure that this improved solvency remains sustainable in the event of future interest rate hikes.


Capitalization

The Company maintains a conservative capital structure, characterized by a low leverage profile as the debt-to-capital ratio (Debt / Debt + Equity) improved to 10.7% in FY25 from 20.8% in the preceding year. This deleveraging signifies a strengthened solvency position; however, the debt composition presents a distinct liquidity risk, with short-term obligations accounting for 98.9% of the total debt portfolio. While the overall debt burden is modest relative to equity, this extreme concentration in short-term facilities exposes the Company to significant refinancing risks and potential cash flow strain. Consequently, the Company's financial stability is contingent upon its ability to maintain high asset liquidity or secure more permanent, long-term financing to balance its maturity profile.
