For the quarter under review, the Group recorded revenue of\u00a0RM180.73 million, a\u00a014.7%\u00a0increase from RM157.50 million recorded in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year (“Q1FY2025”). The growth was primarily driven by higher demand across the tin cans manufacturing and F&B segments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In line with the revenue growth, profit before tax (“PBT”) surged\u00a039.7%\u00a0to\u00a0RM25.56 million\u00a0compared with RM18.30 million in Q1FY2025. Profit after tax attributable to owners of the Company (“PATAMI”) rose\u00a037.1%\u00a0to\u00a0RM19.32 million\u00a0from RM14.09 million in Q1FY2025. The improvement was supported by stronger contributions from the F&B segment and better performance from the Group’s joint venture in Mexico. Earnings per share (“EPS”) likewise improved to\u00a06.28 sen\u00a0in Q1FY2026 from 4.58 sen in Q1FY2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Segmentally, the Group’s revenue remained resilient across its core businesses, with the F&B segment continuing to be the major revenue contributor. Revenue contributions for Q1FY2026 were\u00a0RM151.62 million\u00a0from F&B (83.9%),\u00a0RM26.41 million\u00a0from tin cans manufacturing (14.6%), and\u00a0RM2.70 million\u00a0from property development (1.5%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Management of AGB\u00a0said, “We are pleased to have started FY2026 on a positive note despite the escalation of the US-Iran conflict in late February 2026 caused severe disruptions to the Strait of Hormuz, driving up freight costs and commodity price volatility across many industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our tin cans manufacturing and F&B segments remained the key pillars of our performance. Demand from customers remained firm and we continued to manage our operations efficiently despite rising input costs and foreign exchange volatility. On the property development front, infrastructure work at our Kapar land has commenced and is expected to progressively contribute revenue to the Group, while our Carey Island land is currently pending approval from the relevant authorities to proceed with development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our joint venture in Mexico, Able Dairies Mexico SAPI de CV, performed strongly this quarter, with share of profit rising to RM3.84 million from RM0.98 million in Q1FY2025. The performance of our Mexico operations has been steadily improving and contributing positively to the Group’s overall earnings, supported by healthy domestic dairy consumption and growing demand in the Mexican market. We remain focused on growing this business and delivering long-term value for our shareholders.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Board of Directors is pleased to declare a\u00a0first interim dividend of 2.0 sen\u00a0per ordinary share in respect of the financial year ending 31 December 2026. The date of payment and book closure of the said interim dividend will be determined at a later date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
