- 

CARGILLS (Ceylon) PLC has posted a robust start to the 2025/26 financial year, recording a 46.3% year-on-year (YoY) increase in Group Profit After Tax (PAT) to Rs. 2.2 billion for the quarter ended 30 June 2025, the company said in a statement.

Group revenue rose 11.2% to Rs. 66.7 billion, driven by strong topline growth across the core segments—Retail, FMCG, and Restaurants. Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, And Amortisation (EBITDA) for the quarter increased by 11.9% to Rs. 6.5 billion.

This performance was supported by seasonal demand, sustained operational efficiencies, and lower finance costs, despite rising overhead expenses.
