PSO strengthens operational resilience

Pakistan State Oil (PSO) said it strengthened its operational resilience, expanded its retail network and advanced its digital initiatives during FY26, while maintaining its market leadership position despite a highly competitive environment and geopolitical disruptions affecting global energy supply chains. The update came during the company’s Corporate Briefing Session held on Thursday, where management discussed its nine-month financial performance and future outlook. PSO had earlier reported earnings per share (EPS) of Rs81.19 for the first nine months of FY26, compared with Rs32.52 in the corresponding period of FY25, primarily supported by inventory gains and improved gross margins resulting from positive margin variance.
