Unilever Ghana PLC has announced an improvement in its financial performance for the period ended December 31, 2025, driven by a strategic focus on key categories and enhanced operational efficiency.

According to the unaudited financial statements, the company achieved an 11.7 per cent increase in revenue, rising to GH?1.039 billion from GH?930.8 million the previous year.

The growth was largely fuelled by a “strong focus on its Oral Care, Beauty and Well-being categories,” the company stated, adding that this was “achieved through optimised sales strategies and improved market penetration.” 

Profitability metrics also showed robust improvement, with gross profit climbing to GH?406.6 million from GH?352.8 million, and profit after taxation surging to GH?94.4 million from GH?58.1 million in 2024.

A notable highlight is the expansion in operating profit margin to 13.9 per cent, up from 10.2 per cent in the prior period. The company attributed this to “effective cost management, improved operational efficiency and topline leverage.” Operating profit itself saw a substantial rise to GH?143.9 million from GH?95.2 million.

The statement of financial position reveals a strengthened liquidity position, with cash and bank balances more than doubling to GH?210.5 million as of 31 December 2025, compared to GH?97.0 million at the end of 2024. 

Total assets increased to GH?545.7 million from GH?444.0 million. However, inventories decreased to GH?103.2 million from GH?128.7 million, while trade and other payables increased to GH?124.1 million.

The cash flow statement underscores a dramatic improvement in operational cash generation. Net cash generated from operating activities was GH?203.0 million, a substantial increase from GH?41.2 million in 2024. The company also paid a higher dividend of GH?37.5 million, up from GH?28.0 million the previous year.

In a statement within the financial report, the company affirmed that “The financial statements do not contain untrue statements, misleading facts or omit material facts to the best of our knowledge.” Earnings per share for equity holders rose sharply to GH?1.5098 from GH?0.9288, reflecting the enhanced profitability distributed across shares. Total comprehensive income for the period stood at GH?94.1 million.
