Stable Business Model Underpins Performance
Cypriot beverage giant Keo Plc reported a net profit of €3.23 million in the first half of 2025, a slight decline from €3.529 million recorded during the same period in 2024. The company continues to focus on its core operations—vinification, beer and juice production, and the bottling of natural mineral water—which are distributed both domestically and internationally.
Revenue Contraction Driven by Export Volatility
The group’s turnover decreased to €33.395 million from €35.468 million year-over-year, reflecting a 5.84% decline. This reduction was primarily attributed to a non-recurring export agreement that bolstered revenues in the previous period. Gross profit experienced a modest dip as well, though the gross profit margin improved marginally from 33.4% in 2024 to 33.9% in 2025.

Operational Adjustments and Fiscal Outcomes
Operating profit fell to €2.925 million, down from €3.487 million, mirroring the decrease in turnover. Profit before tax also dropped to €3.644 million from €4.108 million, while taxation expenses were streamlined to €414,000 from €579,000. Despite these figures, Keo Plc confirmed that there were no significant changes in its overall risk profile, as outlined in the 2024 annual report.
Commitment to Transparent Financial Reporting
The interim consolidated financial statements for H1 2025 were prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 and the Securities and Stock Exchange Laws. It is important to note that these statements have not been audited by the company’s external auditors, reflecting their preliminary nature during this transitional reporting period.
