The State Trading Organization (STO) announced a notable rise in its Earnings Per Share (EPS) for the second quarter of 2025, reaching MVR 145 compared to MVR 131 in the same quarter last year, marking an increase of approximately 10.7%.
This growth in EPS underscores STO’s improved profitability and enhanced value creation for its shareholders. EPS, a crucial financial metric, measures net earnings attributed to each outstanding share, providing investors with a clear indicator of the company’s financial health.
