DOMT reports 891.50 percent profit growth: what it means for DOMT stock
Published on 10/05/2026 at 11:54 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSArabian Food Industries Co, known by the ticker DOMT (EGS30031C016), reported consolidated net income of EGP 145.40 million for the first half of 2026, up 891.50 percent from EGP 14.70 million a year earlier, according to Al Borsa News on September 30, 2026. The result gives DOMT stock a clear earnings marker, but the comparison also shows how much the prior-year base affects the growth rate.
First-half profit expands sharply
Sales rose to EGP 5.39 billion in the first half of 2026 from EGP 4.25 billion in the first half of 2025. The increase was accompanied by a consolidated gross profit of EGP 1.26 billion, compared with EGP 975.59 million in the prior-year period, while operating profit reached EGP 436.86 million against EGP 317.93 million.
Masrawy reported the sales comparison and said earnings per share increased to EGP 0.41 from EGP 0.04. That earnings-per-share comparison is important because it links the net-income increase to per-share profitability rather than revenue growth alone.
Cost growth shapes the result
Cost of sales increased to EGP 4.13 billion in the six months ended June 2026 from EGP 3.28 billion in the comparable period. The cost increase was smaller than the rise in net income, yet it remains a key operating variable for a food producer exposed to dairy, packaging and distribution expenses.
Domty says it manufactures, markets and distributes white cheese, processed cheese, mozzarella, juice and bakery products across nearly 200 stock-keeping units. Its official website describes the company as a household name in Egypt and identifies cheese as its leading local market position.
EGX value sets the market context
The Egyptian Exchange sector register classified Arabian Food Industries in Food, Beverages and Tobacco and showed DOMT with a market capitalization of EGP 7.4 billion as of September 27, 2026. The same register showed a DOMT price of EGP 24.92 and a daily change of minus 2.81 percent on that date, while a separate quote page placed the 52-week range at EGP 20.62 to EGP 32.00. These figures frame the earnings release against a listed equity valued below its recent high.
Al Borsa News also reported that the company had delayed submitting its financial statements until formal board approval. That disclosure adds a timing consideration to the strong first-half comparison, because investors are assessing both the reported earnings and the process that brought the figures to market.
What the earnings growth means
DOMT's first-half numbers combine a sales increase from EGP 4.25 billion to EGP 5.39 billion with net income growth from EGP 14.70 million to EGP 145.40 million. For investors, the central question is whether operating profit of EGP 436.86 million can support the earnings improvement as cost of sales rises. The next valuation reference is the EGP 7.4 billion market capitalization recorded on September 27, 2026.
