Rising rubber prices likely to benefit Sri Lanka’s listed companies

First Capital says listed plantation firms AGAL, KGAL, KOTA and HOPL are well positioned to benefit from rising rubber prices as rubber makes up about 15%+ of their revenue. Dipped Products and exporters may also gain from higher rubber prices and rupee depreciation, while Kelani Tyres could face margin pressure.

Plantations & Agriculture sector: what is happening

Last 30 days to Aug 4, 2026

Tea saw mixed signals: the June national sales average fell to Rs 1,153.49, while June production rose 4% YoY but first-half output was hit by extreme weather and higher fertiliser costs. Exporters gained relief as the US labour-related tariff on Sri Lankan goods was cut to 10%. Meanwhile, new EU sustainability rules are driving compliance efforts, and plantations report organised theft of high-value crops hurting competitiveness.
