BRVM-listed AGL CI sees third-quarter profit jump by 83%
Africa Global Logistics (AGL) Côte d'Ivoire, formerly known as Bolloré T&L CI, has recorded a tremendous improvement in its financial position. The new ownership under global giant MSC reported a profit of 17.99 billion FCFA (~$30 million) at the conclusion of the first nine months, signifying a substantial increase of 82.5% compared to the 10.56 billion FCFA recorded in the same period in 2022.
Despite a marginal 1.2% decline in turnover, reaching 62.07 billion FCFA, attributed to decreases in the handling and warehousing sectors, the result from ordinary activities reached 19.36 billion FCFA. The outstanding performance can be attributed to effective expense management and a boost in financial income.
It's noteworthy that the achieved result far surpasses the company's performance for the entire 2022 financial year, with a remarkable net margin standing at 28.98% compared to 15.69% as of September 2023. This signifies a substantial enhancement in operational efficiency and financial health for AGL Côte d'Ivoire, reinforcing its positive trajectory and effective financial management under the new ownership.
