Betamek Berhad (“Betamek” or the “Company“), an Original Design Manufacturer (“ODM“) and a leading player in electronics manufacturing services (“EMS”) for the automotive industry, has delivered another strong set of results for the second quarter ended 30 September 2025 (“Q2 FY2026”) with 74.5% increase in Profit Before Tax (“PBT”) to RM12.5 million.
The growth was driven by higher sales volumes from key domestic and export customers, improving margins, and enhanced operational efficiency.
On a year-on-year (“YoY”) basis, the Company’s revenue increased by 28.7% to RM72.5 million compared to RM56.3 million in Q2 FY2025, mainly supported by higher orders from Perodua across vehicle audio, visual and accessory products, alongside new components for its upcoming electric vehicle (“EV”) model.
The export segment, comprising sales to Japan and Hong Kong, contributed approximately 6.8% corresponding period. Gross profit rose by 73.7% to RM16.5 million from RM9.5 million, with gross margin improving to 22.7% from 16.8% a year ago.
PBT stood at RM12.5 million compared to RM12.6 million in the corresponding period, due to the impact of administrative and operating expenses amounting to RM4.35 million, primarily related to staff costs, share-based compensation, depreciation, licence fees, and amortisation of intangible assets. Despite these expenses the group continues to demonstrate strong cost efficiency, growing export sales and stronger product mix contribution.
Quarter-on-quarter (“QoQ”), Betamek’s revenue rose by 27.4% from RM56.9 million in Q1 FY2026, driven by stronger sales across both domestic and export markets and higher sales volumes from Sanshin (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. (“SMSB”) and improved throughput across key product lines.
Gross profit increased by 57.5% to RM16.5 million compared to RM10.5 million in the preceding quarter, while PBT jumped 74.5% from RM7.2 million to RM12.5 million, supported by favourable foreign exchange movements, operating leverage, and improved cost management.
For the cumulative six-month period ended 30 September 2025 (“1H FY2026”), the Company recorded RM129.4 million in revenue, representing a 21.7% YoY increase from RM106.3 million in the same period last year. PBT improved by 3.5% to RM19.7 million, while net profit rose to RM15.8 million compared to RM15.3 million in 1H FY2025.
In line with its commitment to shareholder returns, the Board has declared a second interim single-tier dividend of 1.25 sen per ordinary share for the financial year ending 31 March 2026 (“FY2026”), payable on 12 December 2025 to shareholders whose names appear in the Record of Depositors on 2 December 2025.
Encik Muhammad Fauzi Bin Abd Ghani, Executive Director of Betamek commented,
“Our Q2 results reaffirm Betamek’s operational resilience and capacity to scale sustainably. The improved margin performance reflects our strong execution focus and successful integration of Sanshin (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. We are also encouraged by the increasing contributions from our export markets and remain focused on supporting Malaysia’s transition toward electric mobility and smart vehicle technologies.”
The Company’s financial position remains robust, with total assets of RM216.3 million and net assets per share of RM0.34 as at 30 September 2025. Cash and bank balances strengthened to RM72.7 million, driven by healthy operating cash flow of RM29.1 million generated during the period.
