MTML’s topline remains heavily concentrated in the export segment, reflecting its strong international market positioning. During FY25, the Company reported a topline of PKR 59.2bln, registering a modest growth of ~1.0% YoY (FY24: PKR 58.6bln). This increase was primarily driven by higher export sales which rose by 10% to PKR 50.6bln in FY25 (FY24: PKR 46.0bln), indicating improved sales and sustained demand in key international markets. The Company’s export sales are geographically diversified, with the United States, retaining the largest export destination, followed by Germany, Sri Lanka, and other international markets. This diversified presence across key regions supports revenue stability and reflects MTML’s strong penetration in global markets. Customer concentration, however, remains notable, with JC Penney Purchasing LLC continuing to be the Company’s largest buyer. During 9MFY26, the Company reported a topline of PKR 36.4bln (9MFY25: PKR 44.5bln), reflecting a decline of ~18% due to the imposition of reciprocal tariffs by the USA. During FY25, the Company’s gross margin contracted to 15.2% (FY24: 16.2%), primarily attributable to an uptick in salaries, wages, and employee benefits. Similarly, the operating margin settled at 7.4% (FY24: 9.1%). The Company’s finance cost declined to PKR 3.8bln (FY24: PKR 5.0bln), primarily due to monetary easing by the State Bank of Pakistan. Consequently, the Company posted a net profit of PKR 131mln in FY25, translating into a net margin of 0.2% (FY24: -0.8%). The turnaround at the net level is largely underpinned by the reduction in finance costs. As of 9MFY26, despite the decline in revenue, the Company’s profitability profile improved, with gross and net margins expanding to 17.6% and 1.7%, respectively, reflecting gradual margin accretion driven by enhanced cost rationalization measures and improved operational efficiencies. Going forward, the Company’s ability to optimize its cost base and sustain operational efficiencies will remain critical to preserving profitability and supporting margin sustainability.

The Company’s working capital requirements are met through a combination of internal cash generation and bank borrowings. Net working capital days elevated to 152 days (FY24: 145 days), primarily due to increased inventory holding period. Trade payable days declined to 36 days (FY24: 41 days), while trade receivable days slightly improved to 92 days (FY24: 96 days). As of 9MFY26, working capital cycle stood at 198 days. During FY25, the Company generated FCFO of PKR 5.03bln (FY24: PKR 6.1bln), reflecting a moderation in internal cash flow generation. Accordingly, the Company’s interest coverage ratio improved to 1.4x (FY24: 1.3x), while the debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) remained constant at 1.0x (FY24: 1.0x). As of 9MFY26, the Company’s FCFO stood at PKR 3.4bln (9MFY25: PKR 3.3bln), primarily driven by an increase in profit before tax. Coverage metrics also showed relative improvement, with interest coverage and DSCR standing at 1.6x and 1.1x, respectively, indicating stabilization in cashflow generation. The Company’s equity base marginally strengthened to PKR 17.1bln as of FY25 (FY24: PKR 16.6bln). The Company continues to operate with a highly leveraged capital structure, with the debt-to-capital ratio elevating slightly to 60.7% (FY24: 60.1%). The funding profile remains predominantly reliant on short-term borrowings, which stood at PKR 22.6bln (FY24: PKR 22.1bln), primarily utilized to finance ongoing working capital requirements. As of 9MFY26, the Company’s equity base stood at PKR 17.6bln, with leveraging of 60% and short-term borrowings amounting to PKR 23.4bln.
