Arab Aluminum returned to profitability in the first nine months of 2026, according to a Mubasher report carried by Hosny & Partners published on November 10. The figures cover the period from January through September 30, 2026, and were submitted to the Egyptian Exchange.

Profit replaces prior-year loss

Net profit after tax reached EGP 11.42 million, compared with a net loss of EGP 6.60 million in the comparable period of 2025. The company attributed the improvement mainly to lower finance expenses, higher foreign-exchange valuation gains and increased sales volume.

Sales growth remains modest

Revenue, described as sales in the financial statement summary, rose to EGP 448.68 million from EGP 443.07 million a year earlier. That represents an increase of about 1.3 percent, while the shift from loss to profit points to the importance of financing and currency-related effects alongside operating sales.

What investors should watch

The next focus is whether the earnings improvement continues in the final quarter and whether lower finance expenses and currency gains remain supportive. The reported figures do not provide a new forecast or dividend decision.
