Unilever Consumer Care PLC, a company listed on the Dhaka Stock Exchange, has published its unaudited financial statements for the third quarter of 2026, covering July through September, according to অর্থসূচক. The board of directors reviewed and approved the figures at a meeting held on Thursday, 29 October 2026, and the company released them the same day.
The headline number is a decline in per-share profit. Earnings per share for the quarter stood at Tk 8.52, compared with Tk 12.80 in the same three months of the previous year, অর্থসূচক reports.
Why it matters
Unilever Consumer Care is one of the consumer-goods names traded on Bangladesh's main bourse, and its quarterly disclosures give investors a read on how demand for everyday household and personal-care products is holding up. The year-on-year drop in earnings is the central takeaway from this set of results, and it extends beyond a single quarter: the nine-month figures show the same downward direction.
For shareholders, the comparison matters because the prior-year period was stronger on both the quarterly and cumulative measures. The company has not, in the disclosure summarized by অর্থসূচক, offered an explanation for the change, so the results stand as reported figures without an accompanying account of what drove them.
Nine-month earnings and cash flow
Across the first three quarters of the accounting year — January to September 2026 — the company earned Tk 18.85 per share, according to অর্থসূচক. In the equivalent period of the previous year, earnings per share were Tk 32.59.
Cash flow moved in the opposite direction. Per-share cash flow for the period was Tk 38.17, compared with a negative Tk 16.70 a year earlier, অর্থসূচক reports. That swing takes the measure from a deficit into positive territory.
Net asset value per share, measured as of 30 September 2026, was Tk 93.15.
The statements are unaudited, as is customary for quarterly disclosures of this kind. Thursday's board meeting served both to review and to approve them before publication.
Investors will be watching for the company's audited annual results and any statement from management on the earnings trajectory.
