Sales increased by approximately 9.3% year over year. The company also moved from a loss per share in FY2025 to positive EPS in FY2026. The reported gross and net margins improved, although the net profit margin remained relatively thin.
Investors should review the audited annual report for the exact profit after tax, operating cash flow, inventory movements, receivables and other working-capital details. These measures help assess whether the improvement in reported earnings is supported by the company's underlying operations.

Shariah Compliance Status
Data Agro Limited was classified as Shariah-compliant in the PSX-KMI All Share Islamic Index screening published on 15 May 2026, based on accounts to 31 December 2025.
The official screening notice reported the following ratios:
| Screening criterion | Reported ratio | Screening benchmark |
|---|---|---|
| Debt to total assets | 29.81% | Below 37% |
| Non-compliant investments to total assets | 0.00% | Below 33% |
| Non-compliant income to total revenue | 0.00% | Below 5% |
| Illiquid assets to total assets | 61.85% | At least 25% |
These ratios apply to the specified screening period. They should not be presented as current-period ratios without an updated screening or calculation.
The screening methodology is subject to change. PSX announced a revised debt-to-assets threshold of below 33%, to be implemented from the November 2026 recomposition using June 2026 annual or half-yearly accounts. Investors should therefore check the next official screening result rather than assume that the May 2026 classification will remain unchanged.
Investors following a Shariah-compliant strategy should verify the latest official eligibility list and consult a qualified Shariah adviser if further guidance is required.
