Group net profit rebounded by 168% from the net loss position of a year earlier. The rebound was aided by an 83% reduction in net finance costs following the successful 2024 Rights Issue which helped to deleverage the balance sheet and eliminate foreign currency exposures” he noted.According to him, “the full acquisition and integration of Distell Wines and Spirits Nigeria Limited was completed in 2025 with a one-off integration cost.The integration will help to expand the Company’s beyond beer portfolio and contribute to its long term growth prospects,” he added.He assured all stakeholders that with the continuing support of shareholders as well as the continuous focus on agility, innovation, revenue management, and financial discipline, the Company is set for sustainable growth and long term value creation.
