Pakistan’s UBL becomes largest listed firm with PKR 1.3T market cap United Bank Limited on Tuesday became Pakistan’s largest listed company by market capitalization, climbing to PKR 1.28 trillion ($4.6 billion) and overtaking Oil & Gas Development Company, which now ranks second with a market value of PKR 1.26 trillion ($4.53 billion). The milestone caps a strong rally in UBL shares and underscores renewed investor confidence in the banking sector, analysts said, as easing interest rates and solid earnings drive valuations higher. “UBL’s rise reflects a broader re-rating of banking stocks, supported by strong profitability, consistent dividends and a sharp decline in interest rates,” said an equity analyst. “Investors are clearly rewarding balance sheet strength and earnings visibility.” UBL’s share price has jumped 37% over the past month, rising from PKR 375.57 on Dec. 8, 2025, to PKR 514.49 at the time of filing on Tuesday. Pakistan’s benchmark interest rate has fallen from a peak of 22% in April 2024 to 10.5% in December 2025, a cumulative cut of 1,150 basis points that has provided a boost to equity markets, particularly financial stocks. UBL is a subsidiary of Bestway (Holdings) Limited, which is wholly owned by Bestway Group Limited. According to its latest financial results, UBL reported a profit after tax of PKR 100 billion for the first nine months of calendar year 2025, up 101% from a year earlier. Earnings per share increased to PKR 39.86. In three months to Sept 30, 2024, the bank's profit rose by 93% compared with the same period. The bank also declared an interim cash dividend of PKR 8 per share, taking total payouts for the year to PKR 27.5 per share, among the highest in Pakistan’s banking industry. During Tuesday’s trading session, UBL’s market capitalization briefly crossed PKR 1.29 trillion, cementing its position at the top of the Pakistan Stock Exchange. The achievement marks a dramatic turnaround for the bank, which ranked 13th in 2023 with a market capitalization of about PKR 128 billion. OGDC, long considered the bellwether stock of Pakistan’s equity market, remains a close second, highlighting the continued dominance of financial and energy companies on the exchange.

Pakistan receives 23 bids for offshore drilling amid renewed interest in oil reserves Pakistan has received 23 bids for offshore oil drilling, a move which officials say would boost foreign investment in the country’s petroleum sector. In a statement on Friday, the Petroleum Ministry said the bids were the first major progress in offshore exploration in 20 years. Petroleum is Pakistan’s biggest import as the country relies on oil to meet local needs. The government has been trying to bring investment into the oil and gas exploration to increase production and curb imports, which put a strain on the country’s already scant foreign exchange reserves. According to the ministry, the first phase of offshore licenses will bring an initial investment of around USD 80 million, which could rise to USD 1 billion during the drilling stage. “This successful bidding round reflects the strong confidence of international investors in Pakistan’s upstream sector,” the ministry said, adding that the awarded blocks cover an area of approximately 53,510 square kilometers. #### Global and domestic partnerships The ministry said several prominent local and international companies have secured exploration rights. These include Pakistan’s public companies Oil & Gas Development Company, Pakistan Petroleum Ltd, Mari Petroleum; Hong Kong-based United Energy Group; Orient Petroleum, a major local independent producer; Fatima Petroleum, part of Pakistan's Fatima Group conglomerate; and Turkish Petroleum, as joint venture partners. The Indus and Makran Basin exploration strategy, which focuses on simultaneous exploration in both regions, has proven successful, the ministry said. The ministry added that a recent basin study conducted by US-based consulting firm DeGolyer and MacNaughton estimated potential offshore reserves of up to 100 trillion cubic feet of gas, providing the basis for launching the Offshore Licensing Round 2025. “Growing international participation demonstrates renewed confidence in Pakistan’s offshore potential and reflects the country’s strategic importance in the regional energy landscape,” the Petroleum Ministry said. #### 'Massive oil reserves' There has been a buzz around Pakistan’s probable oil and gas reserves since US President Donald Trump claimed both countries would work together to develop the “massive oil reserves”. “We have just concluded a Deal with the Country of Pakistan, whereby Pakistan and the United States will work together on developing their massive Oil Reserves,” Trump wrote in a July post on Truth Social. “We are in the process of choosing the Oil Company that will lead this Partnership. Who knows, maybe they’ll be selling Oil to India some day!” The announcement was made after Pakistan signed a trade deal with the US, which resulted in lower tariffs on its exports as compared to other regional nations. In September, Pakistan’s Mari Energies and Fatima Petroleum entered into a joint venture with US company Hycarbex-American Energy for oil and gas exploration in northwestern Pakistan. The Peshawar Block, located in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, has remained inactive for years due to regulatory delays, security challenges and a lack of financing. Experts have said that Pakistan's oil and gas reserves are often exaggerated in the absence of reliable estimates due to a lack of exploration, which the country lacks the financial and technical capacity to conduct. Moin Raza Khan, former MD of Pakistan Petroleum Limited, told Nukta Pakistan’s exploration “has been haphazard”. “Trump’s tweet should be capitalized on—not for political mileage, but through serious, systematic, and scientific action,” he added. Pakistan’s offshore basins, particularly the Indus Delta, are geologically similar to oil-rich regions like the Gulf of Mexico, Mahakam Delta (Indonesia), and Gippsland Basin (Australia), Khan noted. With the right planning, Pakistan could unlock 250–300 trillion cubic feet of gas, he estimated. Khan criticized the country’s lack of pre-drill groundwork—no seabed chemical analysis, no baseline seismic surveys, and no clear mapping of “sweet spots” that could attract multinationals.

This translates into a 61% dividend payout during the fourth quarter, compared to 69% in the same period last year, according to a report by Topline Securities, released on Saturday. During the fourth quarter of 2023-24, companies listed on the KSE-100 index paid nearly PKR 254 billion to their shareholders. On a quarter-on-quarter basis, dividends increased by 142%, in line with the year-end pattern, where companies typically declare payouts.

In the food & personal care sector, Nestle Pakistan (NESTLE) emerged as the largest contributor with PKR 10.1 billion in dividends. Unilever (UPFL) and National Foods (NATF) declared dividends of PKR 2.8 billion and PKR 1.1 billion, respectively. Bestway Cement (BWCL) announced dividends of PKR 5.9 billion, followed by Fauji Cement (FCCL) PKR 3.1 billion and Lucky Cement (LUCK) PKR 1.2 billion. In the power sector, Hub Power Company (HUBCO) declared the highest dividend of PKR 12.9 billion during the quarter. In the pharmaceutical sector, where all companies announced ‘nil payout’ in the June quarter, the sector declared PKR 3.3 billion in dividends, with GlaxoSmithKline (GLAXO), Haleon Pakistan (HALEON), and AGP Ltd. (AGP) paying PKR 1.5 billion, PKR 1.2 billion, and PKR 560 million, respectively.
