Navoiyuran, a state enterprise in Uzbekistan, has reported a remarkable 136.1% increase in net profit for the first half of 2026, reaching nearly 4.3 trillion soums. This significant growth is compared to the 1.8 trillion soums recorded during the same period in 2025. The company’s net revenue also saw a substantial rise, growing by 101.8% year-on-year to 9.7 trillion soums, while gross profit surged by 109.1%, exceeding 7 trillion soums.
The financial health of Navoiyuran has improved markedly, with total assets climbing to 19.8 trillion soums, reflecting a 70.5% increase from the previous year. Capital has also risen by 60.1% to 15 trillion soums, and retained earnings have increased by 73.3% to reach 13.3 trillion soums. Over the past year, the enterprise’s total profit amounted to 7.9 trillion soums, which is 56.6% higher than the previous year.
However, the company has also seen an increase in long-term bank loans, which rose to 3.6 trillion soums by the end of the reporting period, compared to 1.6 trillion soums a year earlier. This increase in debt may be a point of concern as the company prepares for future growth.
Looking ahead, Navoiyuran is planning to conduct an initial public offering (IPO) in the latter half of 2026, aiming to offer between 10 to 15 percent of its shares. Despite these ambitious plans, the company has yet to transition from a state-owned enterprise to a joint-stock company, which is a crucial step before the IPO can take place. The expected IPO could provide Navoiyuran with additional capital to further enhance its operations and financial standing in the competitive mining sector.
