Cosmo First publishes December quarter results

Cosmo First has declared its financial results for the quarter ended December 2023. During the quarter, the domestic margin of both BOPP and BOPET shrank further due to desperate and below-cost selling resorted by the industry. The company could withstand the disorderly market movements and outperformed the industry at large on the strength and growth of its specialty film business. The near-term outlook in terms of BOPP and BOPET margins remains hazy.

The company recently launched metalized capacitor film for the electronic industry and rigid packaging for the FMCG industry. According to the company, the market response has been very good, and the company expects to hit full capacity utilization in the next 2-3 quarters and add to EBITDA earnings.
