Feb 3 2026


Al Habib Capital Markets


  • Interloop Ltd (ILP) is scheduled to announce its financial results for 2QFY26 on February 4, 2026. Interloop Ltd (ILP) reports robust 2QFY26 results with PAT surging 124% YoY to PKR2,580mn, driven by strong sales growth, improved gross margins, and a significant reduction in finance costs.

Commercial Banks: Flat Earnings; Payouts Intact – By IIS Research

Feb 3 2026


Ismail Iqbal Securities


  • We preview the IIS Banking Universe’s 4QCY25 results, where aggregate earnings are expected to remain largely flat QoQ at PKR 100bn, while delivering a 16.5% YoY growth. Despite continued pressure on net interest margins amid a declining interest-rate environment, earnings remained resilient, supported by balance-sheet expansion, contained credit costs, and disciplined expense management.
  • Net interest income is expected to increase 3.6% QoQ to PKR 340.5bn and 11.7% YoY, even as reinvestment yields remained under pressure. Margin compression was partially offset by volumetric growth, with deposits rising 20% YoY and 5.7% QoQ, supporting earning asset expansion. An improving deposit mix further helped cushion margins. On a full-year basis, CY25E NII is projected to grow 15.4% YoY, reflecting the sector’s ability to navigate a softer rate cycle.
Commercial Banks: 4QCY25 Previews: Stable earnings; Payouts intact – By Insight Research

Feb 3 2026


Insight Securities


  • We estimate profitability of ISL coverage banks to inch up by 16% YoY, while same is expected to decline by 2% QoQ. The YoY increase is mainly driven by lower ETR for the quarter compared to SPLY, further aided by volumetric expansion. While, QoQ decline is attributable to slight moderation in NIMs. Net Interest Income of the sector is likely to decline as impact of lower policy rate translates into asset yields.
  • However, some of the impact is likely to offset by balance sheet expansion as deposits grew by ~2.7% QoQ. We estimate HBL/UBL/MCB/MEBL/BAFL to post EPS of PKR11.0/13.8/11.9/12.5/3.5, respectively. We expect dividend payouts to remain robust amid healthy profits and decent buffer on adequacy ratios and expect HBL/UBL/MCB/ MEBL/BAFL to announce DPS of PKR5.0/8.0/9.0/7.0/2.5, respectively.

Jan 30 2026


HMFS Research


  • Ghani Dairies Limited (GDL) is preparing for an Initial Public Offering (IPO), providing investors exposure to Pakistan’s formalized dairy supply chain, in contrast to traditional commodity-based milk businesses. The company operates a fully mechanized corporate dairy farm, supplying premium-quality raw milk to leading processors, including Nestlé Pakistan, Fauji Foods, and IRC Dairy Products.
  • The IPO is priced at a floor of PKR 24.00 per share, translating into a P/E of 17.56x on FY25 earnings. Applying the same multiple to the post-IPO forecasted FY27 EPS of PKR 3.80 yields a fair value of ~PKR 67 per share, representing ~178% upside from the floor price and ~98.6% from the maximum book building cap of PKR 33.60. The projected FY27 earnings growth is underpinned by near-term capacity expansion, which is expected to nearly double milk production, secured recurring supply contracts with leading processors providing predictable revenue streams, and operational leverage from scale, which should enhance margins further. By funding herd expansion.

Pakistan Market Wrap: Risk-Off Sentiment Triggers Sharp Correction – By HMFS Research

Jan 29 2026


HMFS Research


  • Pakistan’s equity market witnessed a sharp correction on Wednesday, with the benchmark KSE-100 Index shedding over 6,000 points as escalating US–Iran tensions triggered a broad risk-off move across assets. The index closed at 182,338, down 6,042 points (-3.21% d/d). Selling pressure was concentrated in index-heavy names, particularly across the fertilizer and banking sectors, as investors moved to lock in gains after the recent rally. Market participation weakened, with volumes coming off prior levels. The KSE-100 and All-Share indices recorded traded volumes of 414mn and 926mn shares, respectively. Activity was largely confined, with KEL (104mn shares), WTL (48mn), and BOP (31mn) emerging as the most actively traded stocks.
  • Looking ahead, near-term volatility is likely to persist, as global geopolitical developments continue to dominate sentiment, while the local market grapples with stretched valuations and profit-taking pressures following the recent sharp run-up. In the absence of a clear positive catalyst, further downside or consolidation cannot be ruled out. Investors are advised to remain selective and avoid chasing momentum, with a preference for high-quality, fundamentally sound stocks offering earnings visibility and balance sheet strength. Any further weakness may be better utilised to gradually build positions, rather than adopting an aggressive risk-on stance at current levels.

The benchmark KSE-100 Index closed at 188,203, down 385 points (-0.20%), as investors reassessed valuations amid mixed sentiment.

  • Trading activity remained moderate, with turnover at the benchmark recorded at 342mn shares, while the broader All-Share index recorded exchanges of 745mn shares. Scrips such as KEL (90mn), HASCOL (48mn), and BOP (36mn) emerged as the most actively traded names during the day.

Investors are advised to remain selective and focus on scrips with fundamentally sound profiles and growth visibility.

The upward momentum was supported by encouraging macroeconomic signals and anticipation surrounding earnings announcements from key blue-chip companies.

  • Trading activity remained healthy, with volumes of 450mn shares on the KSE-100 and 867mn shares across the broader market.

Investors are encouraged to stay selective and anchored to fundamentally sound names while balancing near-term opportunities with prudent risk management.

Investors are advised to remain vigilant and focus on fundamentally strong stocks with long-term growth potential.
