About National Foods Ltd

National Foods Limited is a food company that makes and sells convenience based food products. Convenience foods are items prepared to be quick and easy to use, such as ready-made mixes, packaged goods and other everyday food products that save time for households. The company's parent company is ATC Holdings (Private) Limited.

The shares are listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) under the code NATF, and the price on this page is in Pakistani rupees (PKR). Our dividend records, which start in 2019, show payments in 8 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.

Latest results

Announced 26 Oct 2026 · Quarter ended 30 Sep 2026

The company announced results to the Pakistan Stock Exchange on 26 Oct 2026. We are reading the announcement; the figures appear here once they pass our checks.

Fair value estimate · limited data

PKR 375.76range of models 367.97 – 391.12

Undervalued +21.2% to fair value

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 391.12

P/S multiple

PKR 368.18

P/E on average earnings

PKR 367.97

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: 24.26, 13.65, 5.44, 9.23. Source: statements and price from the Pakistan Stock Exchange portal and end-of-day data. A model estimate, not a price target or advice. How it works.

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.
