BUA Foods Plc is poised for a sharp earnings expansion in 2025, as strategic price cuts and expanded capacity across product segments spark higher volumes and margin gains, according to analysts at CardinalStone.
Earnings per share are projected to rise 1.8 times in full-year 2025, with revenue climbing to N1.77 trillion ($1.2 billion), up 15.9 percent from N1.53 trillion in 2024. Analysts attribute the surge to BUA’s aggressive pricing strategy, increased rice production, product innovation and a ramp-up in West African exports.
“Price reductions initiated in Q1’25 have begun to translate into improved demand,” CardinalStone said in a note dated June 18. “This prompted BUA Foods to raise production volumes and launch new SKUs like 25kg macaroni and 1kg semolina.”
