Despite this rise in sales, Mold-Tek Packaging experienced a decrease in profitability.  

Its profit before tax fell by 10.40% to Rs221.90m in the quarter ending 30 June 2024, attributed to higher depreciation and finance costs.  

Similarly, net profit declined by 11.76% to Rs165.3m as compared to Rs187.3m in the corresponding period of the previous year. 

However, when compared to the fourth quarter of FY24, net sales showed a significant increase of 11.22%, with sales volume also rising by 9.07% from 9,071t in Q4 FY24.
