Shares of Pearl Global Industries Limited closed higher on Friday after touching a fresh 52-week peak of one thousand three hundred fifty-three rupees earlier in the session. The textile firm ended four point one five percent higher at one thousand three hundred twenty-seven rupees and eighty-five paise on the BSE, bringing its market capitalization to twelve thousand two hundred sixty-six point eight-two crore rupees. Its return on equity stood at nine point nine-two percent.

Growth Targets And Outlook

The share price jump followed the apparel exporter's announcement of new growth targets and future plans. PL Capital responded to the update by upgrading the stock rating to 'buy' from 'accumulate' and raising its target price to one thousand five hundred rupees per share. The brokerage firm expects the company's revenue, EBITDA, and PAT to grow by seventeen percent, thirty-one percent, and thirty-five percent respectively over the period spanning financial years twenty-six to twenty-nine. Operating leverage and backward integration are expected to push EBITDA margins up to twelve point eight percent.

Brokerage Projections

PL Capital noted that the company is moving faster than earlier goals on key operating metrics. The firm projects that the garment maker will likely hit its six thousand crore rupee revenue target before financial year twenty-eight, while total garment capacity should cross one hundred fifteen million pieces by financial year twenty-seven. Bangladesh remains a key location for the company's upcoming growth. The supplier works with major global brands including Zara, Ralph Lauren, and Calvin Klein. Over longer timeframes, the stock has posted strong gains, surging nearly eighty-five percent in six months, about one hundred three percent in one year, two hundred percent in two years, four hundred thirty-eight percent in three years, and one thousand six hundred eighty-nine percent over five years.
