The increase in revenue was primarily driven by contributions from the new Data Centre sector and the inclusion of the newly acquired subsidiary, Greatech Mechatronics (Slovakia) s.r.o. ("GMS"), which was not part of the Group in 1Q2025. This was partially offset by lower revenue from E-Mobility, Life Sciences and Solar sectors resulting from soften demand as customers delay investment decisions in late 2025.
The Group had recorded a gross profit ("GP") of RM45.86 million and gross profit margin ("GP margin") of 25.62% in 1Q2026 as compared to RM58.45 million and 33.33% respectively in 1Q2025. The normalised GP margin without the net warranty impact was 25.93% and 32.47% respectively for 1Q2026 and 1Q2025. The decrease in normalised GP margin was mainly attributable to a higher direct labour costs arising from increased headcount through organic growth and the strategic acquisitions of GMS on 8 April 2026.
The Group's profit before tax ("PBT") for the 1Q2026 was RM29.18 million, decreased by RM13.78 million or 32.07% compared to the 1Q2025. The Group's profit before tax margin ("PBT margin") has decreased to 16.30% from 24.49%. The normalised PBT margin without the net warranty impact was 16.61% and 23.63% respectively for 1Q2026 and 1Q2025. The decline in PBT and the corresponding margin was primarily attributable to the lower GP margin, as explained above, as well as higher employee compensation and benefits expenses of RM3.63 million, arising from increased headcount through organic growth and strategic acquisition of GMS. These factors were partially offset by the net foreign exchange gain impact of RM 4.58 million, driven by the strengthening of the US Dollar against the Malaysian Ringgit during the financial period.

| Cost Of Goods Sold | (133,135) | (123,063) | ||
| Gross Profit (“GP”) | 45,857 | 47,670 | (1,813) | (3.80%) |
| Other Operating Expenses | (16,680) | (41,850) | ||
| Profit Before Tax (“PBT”) | 29,177 | 5,820 | 23,357 | 401.32% |
| GP % | 25.62% | 27.92% | ||
| PBT % | 16.30% | 3.41% |
The Group’s revenue for 1Q2026 increased by RM8.26 million or 4.84% compared to preceding quarter ended 31 December 2025 (“4Q2025”). The increase in revenue was primarily driven by contributions from the Data Centre sector. This was partially offset by lower revenue from Life Sciences and Solar sectors resulting from soften demand as customers delay investment decisions in late 2025.
The Group’s GP decreased by RM1.81 million or 3.80% as compared to 4Q2025, while the GP margin decrease from 27.92% to 25.62%. On a normalised basis, excluding the net warranty impact, the GP margin stood at 25.93% in 1Q2026 versus 28.01% in 4Q2025. The decline in normalised GP margin decreased was primarily attributable to the timing of project execution, as a larger proportion of projects in 1Q2026 were at the assembly stage. This resulted in higher material costs being recognised during the quarter compared to 4Q2025.
The Group’s PBT for 1Q2026 increased by RM23.36 million, from RM5.82 million in 4Q2025 to RM29.18 million in 1Q2026 and the PBT margin increased to 16.30% from 3.41%. On a normalised basis, excluding the net warranty impact, the PBT margin was 16.61% in 1Q2026 compared to 3.49% in 4Q2025. The increase in PBT and normalised PBT margin was primarily attributable to a net foreign exchange gain recognised during the quarter, as compared to net foreign exchange losses of RM16.60 million recorded in 4Q2025. This was further supported by lower employee compensation and benefits expenses, as 4Q2025 had included annual bonus payouts which were not repeated in the current quarter.

B3. Commentary on Prospects
As we enter 2026, the global economic environment has become increasingly complex. Heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have disrupted energy markets and reintroduced supply chain volatility, while evolving U.S. tariff policies have transitioned trade barriers from transitory measures into a structural feature of the international trade landscape. Against this backdrop of moderating global growth and persistent policy uncertainty, the Group remains resilient and strategically prepared.
Building on the strong order book carried into the year, the Group remains firmly focused on disciplined operational execution, including prudent cost management, timely delivery of customer projects and targeted strategic investments. Operational efficiency and fiscal discipline remain areas of focus across the Group's global operations, as the Group navigates the prevailing operating environment.
The Group continues to work closely with its key customers on active programs, reflecting the resilience and strength of its long-term partnerships. This ongoing engagement has supported the Group's performance amid a challenging climate and prepares the Group to scale effectively as market conditions stabilise. The Group remains encouraged by the structural demand for automation, digitalisation and manufacturing efficiency, which continue to drive growth across its core end markets.
While near-term market volatility may persist, the Group's medium- to long-term outlook is underpinned by its established capabilities and strategic positioning. By maintaining disciplined execution of its long-term strategy, expanding its global installed base and driving operational excellence across the broadened organisation, the Group is well-placed to respond to opportunities as market conditions evolve.
The Board remains confident in the Group's engineering strengths, fundamentals and strategic position. With its growing global presence and ongoing commitment to innovation, the Group is prepared to navigate current headwinds while capitalising on future industry growth opportunities.
As of 20 May 2026, the Group's outstanding order book stood at approximately RM1.67 billion and is expected to last until the second half of 2027.

| Effective tax rate | 7.82% | 14.05% | 7.82% | 14.05% |
The effective tax rate for current financial quarter under review for the Group was lower compared to 31 March 2025 ("1Q2025") mainly due to the movement of deferred tax liabilities arising from temporary differences between accounting depreciation and capital allowances in 1Q2025.
The overall effective tax rate for the cumulative financial period of the Group was lower than the statutory tax rate of 24% as the subsidiary, Greater Integration (M) Sdn Bhd was granted pioneer status for certain activities in designing and manufacturing of production line systems and single automated equipment, which fall within the list of promoted activities and products by Ministry of International Trade and Industry of Malaysia under the Promotion of Investments Act, 1986.
Withholding tax expense is related to foreign withholding tax liability from sales of production line systems and provision of engineering services to customers in certain jurisdictions. Due to complexity of the tax law, significant judgement is required in evaluating the tax positions, including uncertainties. There is no assurance of refundability. Thus, the Group has decided to expense the withholding tax to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
