    Adnex Group Catat Hasil RM27.24 Juta Suku Pertama, PBT Dilaraskan Cecah RM3.86 Juta

    Adnex Group Berhad (Adnex), pakar pemasangan dalaman yang baru sahaja disenaraikan di Pasaran ACE Bursa Malaysia, membuka tirai suku pertama berakhir 31 Mac 2026 dengan merekodkan prestasi hasil yang berdaya tahan sebanyak RM27.24 juta.

    Walaupun Keuntungan Sebelum Cukai (PBT) dan Keuntungan Selepas Cukai (PAT) yang dilaporkan masing-masing berada pada paras RM0.80 juta dan RM0.58 juta, angka tersebut dipengaruhi oleh kos penyenaraian sekali sahaja (one-off) berjumlah RM3.06 juta. Jika perbelanjaan korporat tidak berulang itu dikecualikan, Adnex sebenarnya mencatatkan PBT Terlaras yang melonjak kekal kukuh pada RM3.86 juta, manakala PAT Terlaras mencecah RM3.64 juta.

    Pencapaian PBT Terlaras ini diterjemahkan kepada margin keuntungan tersirat sebanyak 14.20%. Keupayaan mengekalkan margin yang sihat ini membuktikan kecekapan operasi Adnex, terutamanya ketika mengharungi suku pertama yang lazimnya perlahan secara bermusim akibat perayaan Tahun Baru Cina dan kitaran projek pelanggan yang lebih pendek.

    Sumbangan pendapatan terbesar Adnex dipacu oleh segmen kerja pengubahsuaian dalaman syarikat yang menjana RM20.51 juta, atau bersamaan 75.31% daripada keseluruhan hasil. Sementara itu, baki RM6.73 juta (24.69%) disumbangkan oleh segmen perkhidmatan pengubahsuaian siap guna (turnkey). Secara keseluruhan, perolehan terbaharu ini menunjukkan pertumbuhan stabil sebanyak 0.37% berbanding suku sebelumnya yang berakhir 31 Disember 2025.

    Berikutan prestasi operasi yang mantap ini, Lembaga Pengarah Adnex mengumumkan dividen interim satu peringkat sebanyak 0.50 sen sesaham untuk tahun kewangan berakhir 31 Disember 2026. Langkah ini melibatkan pembayaran keseluruhan berjumlah RM2.50 juta yang akan diagihkan kepada pemegang saham pada 10 Julai 2026.

    Pengarah Urusan Adnex, En. Kan Wai Chun

    Pengarah Urusan Adnex, En. Kan Wai Chun menegaskan bahawa lonjakan PBT terlaras kepada RM3.86 juta mempamerkan kekuatan dan daya tahan sebenar perniagaan teras syarikat. Menurut beliau, pasca-penyenaraian korporat ini memberi kelebihan buat Adnex untuk memburu peluang kontrak yang lebih besar, memperkasakan kapasiti operasi, dan memacu fasa pertumbuhan syarikat ke tahap seterusnya.

    Kedudukan kunci kira-kira Adnex turut menyaksikan pengukuhan drastik hasil daripada suntikan dana IPO. Setakat 31 Mac 2026, jumlah ekuiti Kumpulan melonjak kepada RM35.00 juta berbanding RM17.42 juta pada akhir tahun lepas. Malah, rizab tunai dan baki bank syarikat turut meningkat kepada RM21.85 juta, sekali gus membekalkan modal pusingan yang kukuh untuk menyokong pelaksanaan projek-projek akan datang. Syarikat sebelum ini meraih hasil kasar RM18.10 juta daripada IPO untuk tujuan pengembangan perniagaan, bon prestasi, modal kerja, dan pembayaran pinjaman bank.

    Melangkah ke hadapan, pengurusan Kumpulan kekal optimis terhadap prospek pasaran hiasan dan pemasangan dalaman komersial di Malaysia. Permintaan industri dijangka terus rancak didorong oleh pertumbuhan hartanah komersial dan perindustrian, selain disokong oleh kemasukan pelaburan domestik serta asing yang membawa kepada aktiviti pembukaan, penempatan semula, dan penaiktarafan ruang pejabat korporat di dalam negara.

    Eckem Holdinqgs Launches Prospectus For Landmark Public Listing

    Eckem Holdings Berhad, an established specialty industrial chemical solutions provider which also undertakes the manufacturing and trading of rubber products, has officially commenced its initial public offering (IPO) exercise following the launch of its prospectus today. This pivotal corporate milestone paves the way for the Group’s upcoming listing on the ACE Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad.

    The corporate exercise entails a public issue of 125.00 million new ordinary shares, representing 20.00% of the Group’s enlarged issued share capital of 625.00 million shares, in tandem with an offer for sale of 62.50 million existing shares, representing 10.00% of the enlarged issued share capital. Offered at an IPO price of RM0.12 per share, the public issue is structured to raise gross proceeds amounting to RM15.00 million.

    The Group has outlined a meticulous capital allocation strategy for the utilization of the IPO proceeds. A majority share of RM6.00 million will be deployed for the construction of a new corporate office, warehouse, and laboratory facility to substantially fortify the Group’s operational infrastructure. To enhance downstream manufacturing capabilities, RM2.00 million will be allocated to expand a new production line dedicated to the rubber products segment. The remaining capital will be utilized to optimize the Group’s balance sheet, with RM1.45 million allocated for the repayment of bank borrowings, RM1.75 million dedicated to working capital requirements to sustain ongoing business operations, and RM3.80 million designated to defray listing expenses.

    Commenting on the prospectus launch, Mr. Tan Khai Jeik (Jack Tan), Executive Director of Eckem Holdings Berhad, stated that the event signifies a defining moment in the Group’s corporate evolution. He emphasized that over the years, the company has cultivated robust relationships with industrial clientele by ensuring a reliable supply chain, coupled with application formulation support and advanced technical expertise. He added that the capital injection from the listing will directly upgrade their infrastructure and technical proficiency, thereby elevating their capacity to support the rigorous application demands of Malaysia’s wider manufacturing sector.

    Affirming the financial viability of the listing, Datuk Bill Tan, Managing Director of M & A Securities Sdn Bhd, noted that Eckem Holdings has successfully carved out a resilient market presence within the specialty industrial chemicals domain. He attributed this success to the Group’s proven capability in delivering highly customized chemical solutions and maintaining exceptional customer retention rates. He added that as Malaysia’s macroeconomic industrial and manufacturing landscape continues to expand, the Group remains strategically positioned to capture future growth opportunities and deliver long-term stakeholder value post-listing.

    Eckem Holdings currently commands a highly diversified industrial customer base comprising downstream manufacturers, compounders, and resellers. While the Group maintains a diversified geographical footprint spanning international markets such as China, Singapore, the United Kingdom, and the United States, its primary revenue engine remains firmly anchored in its home market. Malaysian operations accounted for approximately 94% of the Group’s total revenue for the financial year ended 2025.

  • Gold Li Targets Regional Diversification via ACE Listing

    Southern region property player Gold Li Holdings Berhad (“Gold Li” or the “Group”) has officially initiated an aggressive cross-sector growth strategy following its successful listing debut on the ACE Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad (“Bursa Securities”) today. Opening at a stable price of RM0.12 per share, the public float successfully unlocked approximately RM15.21 million in gross proceeds through the issuance of 117.0 million new ordinary shares. This fresh capital injection is meticulously structured to fuel immediate regional scaling, with RM11.21 million directly assigned to corporate working capital to fund ongoing and future building works, while RM4.00 million will absorb accompanying listing expenses.

    Operating from a position of strength since 1999, Gold Li has built an impenetrable market presence within the Muar, Tangkak, and Batu Pahat districts of Johor. Unlike traditional developers that rely heavily on third-party building firms, Gold Li maintains a highly integrated business model with a wholly-owned, in-house construction division acting as the principal contractor for all its developments. This self-sustaining structural blueprint grants management absolute control over raw material procurement, localized labor dynamics, strict quality benchmarks, and exact structural delivery timelines—an operational edge that has already yielded 110 successfully completed projects to date.

    The strategic choice to go public lands at a time when Johor’s real estate market is experiencing a massive macroeconomic surge. According to Independent Market Research findings by Smith Zander, total residential asset transaction values across Gold Li’s core sub-markets of Muar, Tangkak, and Batu Pahat comfortably breached the RM1.96 billion threshold in 2025 alone. To capture a larger share of this highly lucrative southern growth corridor, the Group is moving aggressively to monetize its existing pipeline, which currently features 13 active site developments, 28 future projects, and 29 distinct parcels of land primed for forward layout designs.

    Crucially, the ACE Market listing serves as the ultimate launchpad for Gold Li’s boldest corporate pivot yet: diversifying away from low-density landed properties and breaking into high-density architecture. The Group has finalized blueprints for its maiden high-rise residential complex in Muar, scheduled to break ground in the first half of 2027 with a projected Gross Development Value (“GDV”) of approximately RM322.7 million. BACKED by an aggregate pipeline GDV of RM854.9 million across its active landbook, this high-rise expansion represents a highly calculated move to maximize land-use efficiency and boost corporate margins.

    Dato’ Lee Tiau Huat, Managing Director of Gold Li Holdings Berhad, stated that today’s capital market entry marks the definitive pinnacle of a 27-year evolution rooted in Johor. He emphasized that the freshly secured public equity platform provides the necessary balance-sheet strength to unlock the latent value of their 47.3-acre land reserve and fund the upcoming 2027 high-rise asset diversification, ensuring a sustainable trajectory that delivers institutional-grade value to its new public shareholder base.
