Systems Limited has announced a significant improvement in its full year financial results for the year ended December 31, 2025, with consolidated net profit rising by 48 percent to Rs11.04 billion, up from Rs7.46 billion reported in the previous year. The company’s earnings per share increased accordingly to Rs7.52 from a restated Rs5.11 in 2024, underscoring sustained profitability and effective operational performance across its expanding global business footprint. Alongside bottom‑line growth, Systems Limited declared a cash dividend of Rs2 per share for shareholders, reflecting strong cash generation and capital discipline during the period.
The company’s net revenue from contracts with customers climbed 19 percent year‑on‑year to Rs80.39 billion, compared to Rs67.47 billion in the prior year, driven by robust demand across core industry sectors and geographic regions. Growth was supported by disciplined cost management, with cost of revenue increasing only 13 percent while gross profit expanded 39 percent to Rs22.41 billion. Operating profit climbed 45 percent to Rs12.01 billion, even as administrative and selling expenses rose in line with business expansion; research and development costs were reduced by 11 percent, signalling disciplined allocation of resources to priority areas.
On the expense side, the company recorded a 100 percent increase in impairment losses on financial assets, while finance costs declined 28 percent to Rs337.45 million and other income grew 41 percent to Rs852.22 million, contributing to a 50 percent rise in profit before taxation and levy to Rs12.45 billion. After accounting for higher levy and taxation charges, the consolidated net profit stood at Rs11.04 billion for CY25. Across business segments, the Banking, Financial Services and Insurance vertical emerged as the leading contributor due to strategic cross‑selling and upselling initiatives following the acquisition of a Temenos regional partner. In regional markets, Europe delivered stronger margins than other areas, while North America remained a key growth engine, and Pakistan operations achieved a notable turnaround with a positive operating profit margin.
Over recent years, Systems Limited has maintained strong growth momentum, with a compounded annual growth rate of 51 percent in revenue since 2021, supported by both parent business and subsidiaries. The company’s strategic initiatives include expanding its Global Business Services operations, notably through new partnerships and acquisitions, enhancing its delivery capabilities worldwide. Plans are underway to invest in infrastructure to support long‑term growth, including development of a new office facility in Lahore under the Special Technology Zones framework and similar expansion in Karachi, further strengthening its capacity for talent and client delivery. With a healthy project pipeline and diversified markets, Systems Limited enters the new financial year positioned for continued progress, focusing on balanced organic growth within client portfolios, strategic partnerships, and selective acquisitions to deepen its presence in key markets including North America, Europe and the Middle East.
