An­gos­tu­ra Hold­ings Ltd has re­port­ed strong re­sults for the nine-month pe­ri­od end­ed Sep­tem­ber 30, 2025, as the com­pa­ny’s in­ter­na­tion­al per­for­mance and prod­uct in­no­va­tion helped lift rev­enue and prof­its.

Group rev­enue rose by $59 mil­lion, or eight per cent, from $698 mil­lion to $757 mil­lion, while prof­it be­fore tax (PBT) in­creased by 15 per cent to $145 mil­lion, and prof­it af­ter tax stood at $104 mil­lion, a ten per cent in­crease from the pre­vi­ous year.
Earn­ings per share (EPS) al­so climbed 11 per cent to $0.51, up from $0.46 for the same pe­ri­od last year.

An­gos­tu­ra chair­man Gary Hunt said the per­for­mance re­flects “the con­tin­ued suc­cess of our strate­gic ini­tia­tives and op­er­a­tional ex­cel­lence.”
He said the com­pa­ny’s in­ter­na­tion­al seg­ment record­ed growth of 18 per cent year-on-year, dri­ven by a 182 per cent surge in Brand­ed Rum sales and an 8 per cent up­lift in An­gos­tu­ra Chill. Ex­port rev­enue now ac­counts for 45 per cent of to­tal group rev­enue, up from 41 per cent in the com­par­a­tive pe­ri­od.
On the do­mes­tic front, the rum and bit­ters com­pa­ny re­port­ed a three per cent in­crease, sup­port­ed by the launch of sev­er­al ready-to-drink (RTD) prod­ucts ear­li­er this year, which tar­get­ed evolv­ing con­sumer pref­er­ences.
Op­er­at­ing re­sults im­proved by ten per cent, from $113 mil­lion to $124 mil­lion, while fi­nance in­come jumped 42 per cent, re­flect­ing stronger re­turns from the com­pa­ny’s US dol­lar in­vest­ments.
Look­ing ahead, Hunt said the com­pa­ny re­mains fo­cused on sus­tain­ing growth in rev­enue and prof­itabil­i­ty in­to the fi­nal quar­ter of 2025.
“We are en­er­gised by the op­por­tu­ni­ties that lie ahead and re­main com­mit­ted to max­imis­ing share­hold­er val­ue through in­no­va­tion, ex­pan­sion, and op­er­a­tional ex­cel­lence,” Hunt added.
The com­pa­ny ad­just­ed the price of its prod­ucts up­ward on Oc­to­ber 17, fol­low­ing the an­nounce­ment by the Min­is­ter of Fi­nance, Dav­en­dranath Tan­coo, of the dou­bling of the ex­cise du­ty on al­co­holic bev­er­ages in the 2026 na­tion­al bud­get.

An­gos­tu­ra de­scribed it­self as a re­spon­si­ble cor­po­rate cit­i­zen with more than 200 years of her­itage in Trinidad and To­ba­go, adding that it sup­ports the Gov­ern­ment’s ef­forts to strength­en fis­cal sus­tain­abil­i­ty and na­tion­al de­vel­op­ment.

Ac­cord­ing to the com­pa­ny, it has ab­sorbed high­er pro­duc­tion costs over the years through im­proved pro­duc­tiv­i­ty, en­er­gy ef­fi­cien­cy, and in­no­va­tion to lim­it the im­pact on con­sumers.
“How­ev­er, this re­cent in­crease in ex­cise du­ty now re­quires price ad­just­ments to en­sure busi­ness con­ti­nu­ity and the con­tin­ued em­ploy­ment of our work­force of over 537 cit­i­zens,” An­gos­tu­ra said.

The com­pa­ny’s largest in­vestor is Rumpro Com­pa­ny, which owns 44.97 per cent of An­gos­tu­ra Hold­ings. Rumpro is owned by the CL Fi­nan­cial group, which is in com­pul­so­ry liq­ui­da­tion, hav­ing been or­dered to be wound up by the High Court in Sep­tem­ber 2017. The Gov­ern­ment is the largest sin­gle cred­i­tor of CL Fi­nan­cial, and owns 14 per cent of the group.

An­gos­tu­ra’s sec­ond largest share­hold­er at 29.97 per cent is the Na­tion­al In­vest­ment Fund Hold­ing Com­pa­ny Ltd, which is 100 per cent owned by the Gov­ern­ment of T&T.

For the year up to Oc­to­ber 24, An­gos­tu­ra de­clined by 22.56 per cent on the Trinidad and To­ba­go Stock Ex­change. The Com­pos­ite In­dex of the TTSE was down by 9.54 per cent for that pe­ri­od.
