Daily roundup

Corporate Corner

💸 Delta Sugar’s (SUGR) net profit fell 60% year-on-year to EGP 387.2 million in the first nine months of 2025, despite revenue jumping to EGP 6.68 billion from EGP 2.31 billion a year earlier. SUGR attributed the decline to lower local sugar prices amid rising imports and higher financing costs linked to weak sales and increased overdrafts. The company’s share value is up 12.19% since the start of the year.

🌽 Ajwa for Food Industries (AJWA) reported a 76% drop in 2024 net profit to EGP 10.9 million, down from EGP 45.4 million a year earlier, according to its consolidated financials. Ajwa’s annual sales also slipped to EGP 1.7 billion from EGP 1.9 billion in 2023. The company’s share value is up 36% since the start of the year.

💊 El-Nile Co. For Pharmaceuticals And Chemical Industries (NIPH) swung to profitability in the first quarter of its fiscal year, recording EGP 106.52 million in net income, compared to a EGP 11.73 million loss recorded in the same period the year before.This sharp turnaround was fueled by the company's doubled revenues, which soared to EGP 681.2 million in Q1, up from EGP 121.76 million in the corresponding period last fiscal year. It’s worth noting that the company’s share value is up 278% since the beginning of 2025.

🌾 General Silos & Storage Co.(GSSC) reported a slight year-on-year rise in its income for the first quarter of FY2025/2026, posting a net profit of EGP 61.66 million compared to EGP 61.19 million in the same period last year — up 0.76%. Revenues also climbed 15.63% to EGP 261.71 million from EGP 226.33 million a year earlier. The company’s share value has grown 55.6% since the start of the year.

👀Speed Medical (SPMD) plans to exit its hospital business, revealing it’s preparing to sell Speed Hospital — either by offloading its 80.25% stake or selling the facility itself. Osoul Arabia is handling the valuation ahead of a potential sale to buyers in Egypt or the Gulf, with a public auction as a fallback. The company also agreed to pay EGP 5.33 million to Act Financial to close a court case, and will later pursue its former chairman Mahmoud Ahmed Lasheen to recover the amount and seek compensation.

🛢️Alexandria Mineral Oils Company (AMOC) and Middle East Oil Refinery signed an agreement to cooperate in increasing the production of high-quality gas oil that meets international standards by around 350,000 tons per year, priced at global market levels.The move comes as part of efforts to boost integration across petroleum sector companies, in line with the directives of Petroleum Minister Karim Badawy to accelerate economically viable projects that support sustainable growth and enhance value creation.

📝 Research from Mubasher indicates that Talaat Moustafa Group Holding (TMGH) is maintaining its positive momentum after breaking a long-term downtrend line — a move signaling renewed buying strength. The stock is currently trading at EGP 58.10 by market close yesterday, supported by strong demand and stability above its short-term moving average at EGP 57.50. A clear daily close above EGP 59.00 could pave the way for further gains toward EGP 61.70–63.50, while holding above EGP 57.50 keeps the short-term outlook bullish, Mubasher noted.
