How the company made profits 

The company reported a revenue increase of 152.15%, bringing in N4.6 billion, up from N1.8 billion the previous year.

  • Much of this revenue originated from its Port Harcourt base, which accounted for N3.1 billion, while the Kwale base provided N1.5 billion.
  • Waste management services were the main contributors, generating N2 billion from Port Harcourt and N1.5 billion from Kwale, with industrial cleaning services covering the remaining revenue

The cost of sales rose by 83.83%, reaching N2.1 billion, driven primarily by expenses related to consumables, waste collection, haulage, waste treatment, and disposal.

  • Despite the rise in costs, gross profit grew by 270.2%, reaching N2.5 billion, up from N677.9 million last year

Path to profitability 

Other income grew to N189.9 million, a 28.44% increase, mainly due to dividends received, which contributed N138.5 million.

  • In 2024, The Initiates Plc received $87,669 in dividends from The Initiates Uganda Limited, accounting for 36% of the total approved dividend of $280,053.75.
  • After a 15% withholding tax, this amount reflects the company’s share of dividends distributed based on its ownership.

However, administrative expenses increased significantly to N567 million from N227.7 million the previous year, largely driven by provisions for doubtful debts and employee costs.

More favorably, the company reported N2.1 billion from operating activities, compared to N598 million the previous year.

  • However, finance costs rose to N80.2 million, up 2.44% from N78.2 million reported the previous year.

Ultimately, the company reported a pre-tax profit of N2 billion, reflecting a 294.87% increase from N519.7 million the previous year.

Asset position and retained earnings 

Total assets increased to N5.1 billion, a significant rise from N2.5 billion the previous year, reflecting a 100.03% year-over-year growth.

  • Non-current assets amounted to N2.1 billion, primarily driven by property, plant, and equipment, which constituted N1.9 billion.
  • Current assets rose to N2.9 billion, up from N784.8 million, largely due to trade and other receivables totaling N2.8 billion.

Additionally, the company’s retained earnings grew to N1.7 billion, compared to the N411.9 million reported the prior year.
