Stationery & Office Supplies Limited (SOS) has reported a quarter marked by both celebration and challenge in its unaudited financial results for the third quarter and nine months ending September 30, 2025.
The company recorded a 12 per cent increase in revenues, supported by stronger export orders and the rollout of its new online sales platform, which has started to generate meaningful business.
Gross profits also improved slightly due to strategic purchasing and larger inventory purchases that helped control costs.
The gains were partly offset, however, by higher operating expenses. SOS says increased base salaries, along with the hiring of additional skilled staff across departments, pushed expenses upward and contributed to a three per cent decline in pre-tax profit for the period.
For the first nine months of the year, the company continued to show strong performance, as revenues grew six per cent, posting its second-highest year-to-date revenue in its history.
Still, operating expenses rose 11 per cent for the nine-month period; as a result, year-to-date pre-tax profit fell by 22 per cent.
