KUALA LUMPUR: Pharmaniaga Bhd's earnings rose 85.2% to RM28.68mil in the first quarter ended March 31, 2012 from RM15.48mil a year ago, boosted by the acquisition of a new subsidiary and improvement in operational efficiency.

On the revenue, Pharmaniaga said this was due to higher sales to the government sector coupled with improvement in operational efficiencies.
Its profit before tax of RM43.0mil versus RM21.8mil as year ago was contributed by higher gross profit margin of 20.6% as compared with the 16.3% a year ago.
