EPB Group Berhad (“EPB”), and its group of companies (the “Group”), an established one-stop food processing and packaging machinery solutions provider, today announced its unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter ended 31 December 2025 (“Q4 FY2025”), marking a stronger earnings trajectory and delivering solid full-year growth.
For Q4 FY2025, the Group recorded revenue of RM32.69 million, representing a 17.47% year-on-year (“YoY”) increase from RM27.83 million in the same quarter last year (“Q4 FY2024”).
The growth was primarily driven by the Group’s core food processing and packaging machinery solutions segment, which expanded 45.10% YoY to RM24.45 million, supported by higher deliveries to customers in the Philippines and Indonesia. The strong performance underscores the Group’s growing regional footprint and rising demand for customised automation solutions across ASEAN markets.
On a quarter-on-quarter (“QoQ”) basis, EPB sustained its upward trajectory, with revenue increasing 4.07% to RM32.69 million from RM31.41 million in the third quarter ended 31 September 2025 (“Q3 FY2025”).
The improvement was supported by stronger deliveries from the manufacturing and trading of flexible packaging materials segment, alongside continued steady contributions from the machinery solutions business. PAT rose by 30.67% sequentially to RM4.82 million, demonstrating strengthened earnings momentum heading into the new financial year.
For the financial year ended 31 December 2025 (“FY2025”), EPB recorded revenue of RM120.96 million, representing a 14.64% YoY growth from RM105.51 million in the financial year ended 31 December 2024 (“FY2024”). The expansion was anchored by a 27.25% increase in the Group’s core machinery solutions segment, which rose to RM97.70 million from RM76.78 million, driven by higher deliveries to both customers in Malaysia and the Philippines.
The gross profit increased by 3.32% to RM37.73 million, while profit before tax (“PBT”) rose by 8.20% to RM14.61 million in FY2025 when compared against FY2024. PAT strengthened significantly by 40.35% to RM13.74 million from RM9.79 million in FY2024, reflecting stronger sales volume and improved earnings quality, with the increase further supported by the reversal of deferred tax liabilities recognised during the financial year.
Mr. Yeoh Chee Min, Managing Director of EPB Group Berhad, commented,
“FY2025 reflects the resilience and scalability of our core machinery solutions segment. While quarterly margins experienced fluctuations due to delivery timing and cost movements, our full-year performance demonstrates sustained demand across ASEAN markets and the effectiveness of our regional expansion strategy. The strong uplift in PAT underscores our disciplined execution and improved earnings quality.”
As at 31 January 2026, EPB’s order book stood at RM81.53 million, with RM75.07 million expected to be fulfilled in the financial year ended 31 December 2026 (“FY2026”) and RM6.47 million in the financial year ended 31 December 2027 (“FY2027”). The majority of the order book remains anchored by the food processing and packaging machinery solutions segment, reflecting continued demand for automation and processing upgrades across ASEAN.
During the year, EPB strengthened its regional footprint through the incorporation of new subsidiaries in the Philippines and Hong Kong under EPB Capital Limited, positioning the Group to enhance installation, servicing and trading capabilities in key growth markets.
Looking ahead, EPB remains cautiously optimistic amid evolving global trade conditions. Growth in ASEAN economies, particularly Indonesia and the Philippines, continues to support medium-term capital expenditure in food manufacturing and processing.
Domestically, Malaysia’s GDP growth of 5.7% in the fourth quarter of 2025 and the continued accommodative stance of Bank Negara Malaysia provide a supportive backdrop for industrial expansion and automation investments.
With its new Penang factory slated for completion by the first half of 2026 and supported by IPO proceeds earmarked for factory expansion and machinery upgrades, EPB is well-positioned to scale production capacity, deepen automation integration and enhance operational efficiency.
