PZ Cussons Nigeria Plc released its audited results for the year ended 31st May 2025 in early September, reporting a pre-tax profit of N16.6 billion.
This represents a remarkable turnaround from the N122.4 billion loss recorded in 2024, driven by higher revenues and a sharp reduction in foreign exchange losses.
Revenue for the year rose to N212.6 billion from N152.2 billion, led by the home and personal care segment at N126 billion, while durable electronic appliances contributed N86.5 billion.
This improvement turned the group’s operating result into a profit of N18.9 billion, recovering from the prior year’s N124.4 billion loss.
The strong performance carried into the first quarter ended 31st August 2025, with profit before tax of N21.54 billion, a sharp turnaround from a N5.22 billion loss in the same period last year.
Profit after tax stood at N13.48 billion, compared with a loss of N4.64 billion in the corresponding quarter of 2024.
PZ Cussons’ shares are up over 58% year-to-date on the Nigerian Exchange.
The stock began 2025 at N24.30 and, despite a 5.35% dip in January, rebounded strongly in February, surging more than 53% to N35.40.
A 21.8% decline in April weighed on momentum, pushing the price below N30 to N29, while May saw mild gains.
