PZ Cussons Nigeria (ISIN NGPZ00000005) was quoted at NGN 73.80 on the Nigerian Exchange on September 24, 2026, with a daily change of 0.00 percent. Nairametrics reported that revenue increased 22 percent to NGN 260.46 billion for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026.

Profit growth changes the picture

Nairametrics said profit after tax reached NGN 45.17 billion in FY2026, a 349 percent increase. Earnings per share rose to NGN 10.87 from NGN 2.32, giving investors a second measure of the turnaround beyond revenue.

The earnings improvement also included substantial non-recurring support. Pre-tax profit before unusual items rose 132 percent to NGN 38.65 billion from NGN 16.65 billion in FY2025, while asset disposals generated NGN 38.67 billion in gains, according to Nairametrics.

Dividend returns after four years

The board proposed a dividend of NGN 2.50 per share for FY2026, the first payout since 2022. That distribution gives the profit jump a direct shareholder component, although the asset-sale contribution means recurring earnings remain the key test for the next reporting cycle.

PZ Cussons says its brand portfolio centers on personal, home and baby care products, including locally loved consumer brands, according to its company website. For the Nigerian listing, the combination of 22 percent revenue growth and a 349 percent profit increase marks a sharper improvement than the top line alone suggests.

NGX value stays at NGN 73.80

The NGX quote stood at NGN 73.80 on September 24, 2026. Trading volume was 152.2K shares and market capitalization was NGN 293.02 billion on the same date, placing the market value alongside the FY2026 earnings reset.
