Magasin General (ISIN TN0006440010) multiplied first-half net income 12.50 times to TND 5.29 million in the six months ended June 30, 2026, according to Business News on September 16, 2026. MAG stock also gained 16.00 percent over one month through October 8, 2026.

Three dates shape the story

On June 25, 2026, Magasin General received a CNSS review notification covering the 2023 to 2025 financial years. On September 16, 2026, reporting on the interim accounts showed first-half revenue of TND 590.88 million, compared with TND 550.69 million a year earlier, a 7.30 percent increase, as African Manager reported.

On October 13, 2026, MAG was quoted at TND 12.98 on the Bourse de Tunis, up from TND 12.90 at the previous close, with 100 shares traded, according to the BVMT-linked quote page from Irbe7.

What does the profit jump mean?

The operating result rose 41.50 percent to TND 8.37 million in the first half of 2026, while net financial charges fell to TND 0.94 million from TND 3.73 million a year earlier, African Manager reported on September 16, 2026. The combination shows that the earnings increase came from both store operations and financing costs.

The comparison needs careful reading because the first-half figures are individual accounts. For fiscal year 2025, the consolidated group posted a net loss of TND 6.42 million, while the individual company reported net income of TND 5.27 million, according to Business News. That distinction makes the next consolidated reporting cycle important for assessing whether the improvement extends across the group.

Next reporting date

The next stated milestone is October 20, 2026, the legal deadline for Magasin General's third-quarter activity indicators, according to Mizen. For investors, the key comparison is whether quarterly revenue growth remains above the 7.30 percent first-half rate while the group accounts continue to reflect the improvement seen at the individual-company level.
