About Archroma Pakistan Ltd

It also acts as an indenting agent, arranging purchases of goods on behalf of others. The company is a subsidiary of Archorma Textiles Gmbh. Dyestuffs are colouring substances used to give textiles and other materials their colour, while coatings, adhesives and sealants are materials applied to surfaces to protect them, bond items together or seal gaps.

Archroma Pakistan Ltd trades under the code ARPL on the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), with its price quoted in Pakistani rupees (PKR). Our dividend records, which start in 2019, show payments in 6 different calendar years. The Market X-Ray on this page is price-based and compares it with other stocks on the same exchange; it does not measure how healthy the business is.

Average of the 3 valuation models that pass our checks. Undervalued or Overvalued means the gap to fair value is more than 17.5%. Model uncertainty is High.

PSX income statement only (no balance sheet or cash flow): only earnings and sales models can be built. Their weights were fitted to a professional consensus-style valuation of Pakistani stocks and checked on stocks that were not used for the fit, but they use no analyst forecasts. Treat this as a rough estimate.

P/E multiple

PKR 480.17

P/S multiple

PKR 478.23

P/E on average earnings

PKR 438.23

Each model multiplies the company's trailing-twelve-month earnings (or sales) by a multiple that blends its own current multiple, its own history and its sector median. Earnings per share by fiscal year, newest first: 34.05, -15.81, 36.47, 55.25. Source: statements and price from the Pakistan Stock Exchange portal and end-of-day data.

For valuation factors Good means cheaper than most of the group, which is not the same as a bargain.

Built from the income-statement summary the Pakistan Stock Exchange publishes (sales, profit and EPS for up to four financial years, trailing P/E, market value) and our own end-of-day prices. The PSX portal has no balance sheet or cash flow, so there are no debt, cash-flow or book-value factors. A factor is left out when its data is missing or meaningless (for example a P/E on a loss). These ratings compare companies with each other and describe the past; they are not a forecast, a recommendation or part of the Market X-Ray.
