For the current quarter under review ended 31 March 2026, the Group recorded revenue of RM16.90 million, representing a decrease of 35.5% compared to RM26.21 million in the corresponding quarter of the previous year ended 31 March 2025.
The plastic wares division recorded a 6.1% decline in revenue to RM16.90 million, down from RM18.00 million in Q1 2025. The decrease in local sales was mainly due to challenging economic conditions, changes in consumer spending patterns, and increased competition from alternative suppliers. Meanwhile, export sales were significantly impacted by market uncertainties arising from political instability and conflicts.

Although raw material costs increased significantly during the period, the impact on the Group's short-term operating performance was mitigated by existing inventory planning and procurement cycles.
In Q1 2026, the Group recorded a profit before tax of RM1.17 million compared to a loss before tax of RM1.75 million in Q1 2025. The plastic wares division contributed a profit before tax of RM1.25 million.

The Group also recorded a profit before tax of RM1.17 million for the quarter under review, representing a improvement compared to loss before tax of RM1.87 million in the preceding quarter.
B3. PROSPECT
The current global trade uncertainties are mainly attributable to geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, disruptions around the Strait of Hormuz, and prevailing inflationary pressures, which have adversely affected the global supply of resin materials. In addition, plastic resin prices have increased significantly in recent months due to higher crude oil prices and escalating freight costs. These supply chain disruptions have also resulted in unstable raw material supply and extended procurement lead times.
Retailers and manufacturers are facing challenges in fully passing on increased operating and production costs to consumers amid weaker purchasing power and uncertain economic conditions. Consequently, the industry is experiencing margin compression, cautious inventory management practices and slower sales growth. In response, Management is actively reviewing selling prices, strengthening cost monitoring measures and sourcing alternative suppliers to mitigate the impact of rising costs and supply disruptions.
Management expects the retail market for plastic wares to remain challenging and volatile in the near to medium term. While market conditions may gradually improve should geopolitical tensions ease, the stabilisation of global supply chains and petrochemical markets is expected to take time. Nevertheless, demand for affordable, durable and lightweight household plasticware products remains relatively resilient, supported by the continued expansion of online and physical retail channels, which enhance product accessibility and consumer reach.
Page 10
In addition to improving manufacturing efficiency and operational effectiveness, Management and the marketing team will continue to work closely with customers to manage cost pressures and explore opportunities to diversify revenue streams across domestic and selected international markets. The Group also remains committed to product development and design enhancement initiatives through the upgrading of existing product lines and the introduction of new offerings with competitive value propositions and prudent pricing strategies to meet evolving consumer preferences and market demands. Affordability, durability and convenience will continue to remain key considerations in the Group's product strategy.
B4. VARIANCE OF ACTUAL PROFIT FROM FORECAST PROFIT
The Group did not issue any profit forecast or profit guarantee for the financial period under review.
B5. TAXATION
| Current quarter RM'000 | Financial year to-date RM'000 | |
|---|---|---|
| Current taxation | (278) | (278) |
| Deferred taxation | 2 | 2 |
| (276) | (276) |
The Group's effective tax rate for the quarter under review was higher than the statutory tax rate mainly due to tax effects of non-deductible expenses and deferred tax assets not recognised.
