How We Recorded 82.2% Revenue Growth In H1’25 – Guinness Nigeria

Guinness Nigeria Plc has announced its unaudited financial results for the six months ended 31 December 2024, showcasing impressive resilience and strategic growth in a challenging macro-economic environment.

The company reported an 82.2% revenue increase, growing from ₦142.60 billion in H1’24 to ₦259.60 billion in H1’25.

This performance underscores the effectiveness of its revenue generation strategies and geographic expansion.

Despite inflationary pressures and rising costs, Guinness Nigeria demonstrated strong operational efficiency, recording a gross profit of ₦59.01 billion, a 28.4% increase compared to ₦45.94 billion in the prior period.

However, operating profit declined to ₦11.26 billion from ₦16.40 billion in H1’24, reflecting the impact of higher cost of sales.

Notably, the company narrowed its net loss significantly to ₦302.7 million in H1’25, a remarkable recovery from the ₦5.23 billion net loss recorded in H1’24.

Speaking on the results, the Board Chair, Dr. Omobola Johnson said: “These results highlight the strength of our strategy and our ability to adapt in an ever-evolving macroeconomic environment.

While we faced significant headwinds, our team’s commitment and strategic initiatives enabled us to deliver substantial growth in revenue and a significant reduction in losses. We remain confident in our long-term vision to create sustainable value for all stakeholders.”

Echoing similar sentiments, the Managing Director, Girish Sharma said, “Our H1’25 performance is a testament to our agility and determination to navigate economic challenges while focusing on long-term growth.

The 82.2% revenue increase reflects the effectiveness of our portfolio and geographic expansion, and the effective execution of key strategic priorities.

As we continue to navigate a dynamic market landscape, we are committed to delivering value through operational excellence, innovation, and deepened stakeholder engagement.”
