This brought its nine-month pre-tax profit to N22.4 billion, a 36.3% increase driven by strong revenue growth.

However, the cost of sales increased slightly, reaching N5.8 billion in the third quarter, up 4.8%.
Less favorably, other operating income declined from N735.7 million in Q3 2024 to N130.9 million, while operating expenses spiked by 9% to N8 billion.
Finance costs fell to N957.6 million from N1.06 billion in Q3 2024, reflecting lower borrowings and intercompany loans.
On the balance sheet, total assets rose to N154.2 billion, up 9.6%, driven mainly by property, plant, and equipment, which accounted for N122.8 billion.
In terms of equity, retained earnings grew to N70.4 billion from N63.2 billion in December 2024, bringing total equity to N88.2 billion, a 9.6% increase.
