October 31, 2025 (MLN): Tri-Star Power Limited (PSX: TSPL) reported a profit after tax (PAT) of Rs687,630 for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, marking a sharp turnaround from a loss of Rs633,074 in the same period last year.

The return to profitability was mainly driven by improved revenue generation and controlled cost of sales.

Revenue for the quarter stood at Rs3.30 million, while the cost of sales increased by 25.8% year-on-year to Rs88,905. Despite the rise in input costs, the company managed to record a gross profit of Rs3.21m, compared to a gross loss of Rs70,681 in 1QFY25.

Administrative and general expenses surged 185% to Rs3.02m, showing higher operational outlays, while finance costs amounted to Rs2,875.

However, stable other income at Rs0.5 million provided some support to the bottom line.

After accounting for taxes, TSPL posted a net profit margin improvement, reversing last year’s losses. Earnings per share (EPS) rose to Rs0.05, compared to a loss per share of Rs0.04 in the corresponding period of 2024.
