Pakistan State Oil (PSO), the country’s largest oil marketing company, has announced a remarkable increase in its profit-after-tax, which jumped by 502% to reach Rs11.2 billion during the first quarter of the fiscal year 2025–26. This impressive profit growth came even though the company’s revenue dropped by 7%, falling to Rs771.9 billion compared to the same period last year.
According to the company’s financial report, PSO’s earnings per share rose sharply to Rs22.43, up from Rs6.07 last year. The strong results were mainly driven by effective cost-cutting measures, reduced operating expenses, and lower finance costs. These improvements helped the company significantly boost its gross and operating profits. Profit from operations climbed by more than 145%, reaching Rs23.04 billion, while profit before tax also surged by 285% to Rs20.43 billion.
PSO’s management credited these results to better financial discipline, operational efficiency, and stable fuel supply management across the country. The company continues to maintain its leading position in Pakistan’s energy sector, supplying a wide range of products including petrol, diesel, furnace oil, CNG, LPG, and petrochemicals to millions of customers nationwide.
Despite challenges in the global energy market and economic pressures at home, PSO’s performance reflects its resilience and ability to adapt to changing conditions. The company remains committed to ensuring a steady energy supply, supporting industrial and consumer demand, and contributing to Pakistan’s economic growth.
