Lahore, Pakistan - JULY 2, 2025 - Zarea Limited [https://zarea.pk/] (PSX: ZAL), Pakistan's first and only main-board listed B2B digital commodities marketplace, has reported exceptional growth in its latest financials, firmly positioning itself as one of the country's most exciting technology-backed industrial companies - with a strategic pipeline that has the potential to transform its market value many times over.

According to the company's recently published Directors' Report for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, Zarea achieved PKR 805 million in revenue, a remarkable 140% growth compared to the same period last year, while net profit jumped to PKR 454 million, reflecting robust net margins and operating leverage that rivals regional technology leaders. Earnings per share (EPS) for the nine-month period stands at PKR 1.73, with no long-term debt on the balance sheet, a healthy cash position, and zero reliance on expensive bank borrowings - a critical advantage in today's high-interest-rate environment.

Zarea's integrated digital platform now connects over 500 verified suppliers across the cement, steel, coal, and broader construction materials supply chain, giving buyers guaranteed access to bulk commodities at transparent market prices. Unlike conventional brokers, Zarea's tech-driven marketplace automates complex procurement, real-time tracking, and last-mile delivery, creating an ecosystem that legacy players simply cannot match.

As the Directors' Report highlights, the company is now executing its aggressive plan to scale further with the launch of its dedicated Export & Logistics Division. Early-stage negotiations with large buyers in the GCC region are underway, opening up a multi-billion rupee cross-border opportunity for Pakistan's industrial exports. By tapping into the robust regional demand for bulk cement, coal, and agri commodities, Zarea is strategically diversifying away from local market cyclicality, while simultaneously contributing to national export targets.

Zarea also remains protected by a 10-year tax holiday under the Special Technology Zones Authority (STZA) incentive program. This ensures that more cash stays within the business for reinvestment into its advanced digital stack, vendor onboarding, and new verticals such as agriculture inputs and logistics warehousing.

As noted in its Directors' Report, the Board is committed to expanding its reach through strategic partnerships with specialized logistics operators and modern storage infrastructure - moves that are expected to further widen its competitive moat.

Industry analysts believe Zarea's unique B2B marketplace model leaves it with no direct competitors on the PSX today. Its robust revenue trajectory, sticky vendor relationships, and early export pipeline put it in a category of its own among listed tech companies in Pakistan. While traditional industrial stocks often swing with commodity price cycles, Zarea's asset-light, high-margin model provides repeatable income streams, making it one of the rare growth stories on the PSX that combines scale, real cash flows, and first-mover advantage.

Commenting on the future, Zarea's leadership stated, "We're not just digitizing trade - we're building Pakistan's most trusted industrial supply chain for local and international buyers. With our expansion into exports, we see enormous upside for our shareholders as we unlock new markets and build strategic partnerships that grow recurring revenue."

As Pakistan's construction and agri sectors continue to modernize, Zarea Limited [https://zarea.pk/] remains poised to capture significant market share at home and abroad - a bold vision that could see its fair market value multiply if its growth trajectory and logistics rollout continue as planned.

Classification of Foam Ceramics - Specifications and Industry Applications
Foam Ceramics are primarily classified in three ways: by the connectivity of the pores, the size of the pores, and the chemical composition of the material. 1. Classification by Pore Connectivity Based on whether each pore has a solid wall, foam ceramics can be divided into open-cell (reticulated) ceramic materials and closed-cell ceramic materials. If the solid material forming the foam is only contained within the pore struts, it is called an

How does nickel foam perform at high temperatures?
Nickel foam [https://www.beihaicomposite.com/porous-foam-metal-series-nickel-foam-product/] exhibits excellent high-temperature resistance. In air, it remains stable at temperatures below 300 degrees C without significant oxidation or structural changes. When temperatures rise to 400-600 degrees C, an oxide layer gradually forms on the surface, but the internal structure remains intact. At temperatures exceeding 600 degrees C, oxidation accelerates, and the Nickel [https://www.beihaicomposite.com/nickel/] layer may become brittle due to oxidation, affecting mechanical properties.
