    Cadbury Nigeria Rebounds with ₦9.68bn Profit

    Cadbury Nigeria Plc has reported a profit after tax of ₦9.68 billion for the nine months ending September 30, 2025 — a strong turnaround from the ₦11.86 billion loss recorded in the same period last year.

    According to the company’s unaudited financials released to the Nigerian Exchange Limited yesterday, the rebound was driven by higher sales and improved operational efficiency.

    Revenue surged by 33% to ₦119.25 billion, up from ₦89.53 billion in 2024, while gross profit jumped 88% to ₦27.75 billion, reflecting tighter cost control and stronger demand for Cadbury’s products.

    Operating profit soared 154% to ₦15.90 billion compared to ₦6.25 billion a year earlier. 

    The company also posted a ₦13.83 billion pre-tax profit, reversing the ₦16.94 billion pre-tax loss recorded in 2024.

    Total equity rose sharply to ₦14.06 billion, a remarkable improvement from just ₦344.16 million in the same period last year, underlining the company’s financial recovery and renewed investor confidence.

    Basic earnings per share climbed to 424 kobo, up from a loss per share of 520 kobo in 2024 — a clear signal of restored shareholder value.

    The performance highlights Cadbury’s successful restructuring efforts and strategic focus on operational resilience amid Nigeria’s challenging business environment.
