3. COMMENTARY ON PROSPECTS AND TARGETS

A. MANUFACTURING

Management anticipates that the manufacturing division will continue its gradual rebound, contributing to an increase in sales orders compared to FY2025. This improvement is expected to be primarily driven by the resurgence of demand in the global economy.

In addition to sustaining our current customer base within the E&E industry, the division plans to strategically expand into the Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) sector. This growth will be further supported by a comprehensive evaluation of our manufacturing operations, aimed at improving efficiency and optimizing cost structures.

B. PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT

The Group anticipates that the division's contribution to remain marginally positive in the upcoming quarters, given that the ongoing affordable projects are approaching completion by 2026.

Acknowledging the rising costs of building materials and higher borrowing expenses, management is committed to closely monitoring and refining our risk management strategies. Additionally, new product launches will be strategically timed in line with market conditions and prevailing home buyer sentiment amid geopolitical uncertainties, balancing growth opportunities with prudent risk management.

C. PHARMACEUTICAL AND HEALTHCARE

Management expects steady demand for pharmaceutical and healthcare products, supported by rising health awareness and a stronger focus on preventive care. However, higher living costs may pose challenges to growth. To mitigate this, the division will broaden its product range, explore overseas markets, and continue to enforce strict cost controls.

While the outlook for FY2026 remains cautiously optimistic, management remains mindful of rising costs and potential recessionary risks. The division will continue to monitor market conditions and adjust its strategies to stay competitive and maintain sustainable profitability.
