Matrix Concepts beats FY25 sales target, eyes RM1.6bil launches in FY26
The growth was driven by strong market demand and an increase in new launches across its diverse development portfolio.
The new property sales significantly surpassed the the property developer's sales target of RM1.3 billion, bolstered by strong performances from its projects.
This includes its core township developments, Sendayan Developments and Bandar Seri Impian, as well as the Klang Valley high-rise project, Levia Residences.
The sales also included the company's first industrial land sales from the highly anticipated Malaysia Vision Valley City (MVV City).
Taking advantage of favourable market conditions, Matrix Concepts launched projects with a total gross development value (GDV) of RM1.45 billion in FY25, a 9.8 per cent rise from RM1.32 billion last year.
The overall take-up rate for FY25 launches stood at 73 per cent as of March 31, 2025, indicating strong buyer confidence.
Datuk Mohamad Haslah Mohamad Amin said that surpassing the FY25 sales target reflects the enduring trust and confidence of homeowners across generations.
Datuk Mohamad Haslah Mohamad Amin said the FY25 surpassing our sales target for the year reflects the lasting trust of homeowners across generations.
He stated that for nearly three decades, the commitment to delivering premium-quality, trend-driven homes at accessible prices has driven strong take-up across Matrix Concepts' developments in Negri Sembilan, Johor and the Klang Valley.
"FY26 is positioned for transformative growth, supported by a launch target of RM1.6 billion in GDV of new projects.
"These upcoming launches include the first phase of the MVV City's industrial land, a key catalyst for our next growth phase.
"Spanning 964.1 hectares with a projected GDV of RM15 billion, the MVV City development is poised to provide a clear earnings trajectory in the near term and reinforce our long-term confidence," Mohamad Haslah added.
In FY25, the company's revenue declined 11.2 per cent to RM1.19 billion from RM1.34 billion previously due to the timing of launches and revenue recognition for properties sold in Sendayan Developments and Bandar Seri Impian.
Its net profit also fell 12 per cent to RM214.1 million from RM244.3 million previously.
Matrix Concepts' unbilled sales stood at RM1.46 billion as of March 2025, providing significant earnings visibility for the next 15 to 18 months.
The company declared a fourth quarter interim dividend of 1.35 sen per share that will be paid on July 10, 2025.
Mohamad Haslah said the company is expanding its footprint within the high-growth Klang Valley region, particularly Selangor.
He said the recent investments have established a robust platform for future developments in the Banting and Sepang areas.
"Beyond our core property development activities, we are strategically expanding into high-potential sectors such as hospitality, education and healthcare.
"These complementary ventures are designed to create diversified and recurring income streams, strengthening our resilience and enhancing long-term value creation," he added.

Negeri Sembilan water tariff hike proposal to enhance sustainability
SEREMBAN: The proposed water tariff adjustment in Negeri Sembilan is set to strengthen the state's water supply system and infrastructure, ensuring long-term sustainability, according to Syarikat Air Negeri Sembilan Sdn Bhd (SAINS). The new tariff structure will impact all customer categories, covering more than 490,000 accounts. However, domestic users consuming less than 20 cubic metres per month will continue to benefit from subsidised rates. 'The proposed tariff review is currently under evaluation by the National Water Services Commission (SPAN) and will require federal government approval before implementation,' SAINS said in a statement. The utility company emphasised the need for public understanding, explaining that the adjustment is crucial for improving water service delivery and infrastructure. One major challenge is ageing pipes, particularly asbestos cement pipelines prone to frequent bursts, which disrupt supply. Rising demand for water, driven by rapid development in Seremban and Port Dickson, population growth, and industrial projects under the Malaysian Vision Valley 2.0 initiative, has further strained resources. Climate shifts have also affected raw water quality, increasing treatment costs to meet national standards. To address these issues, SAINS has allocated nearly RM1.3 billion for infrastructure projects under Operational Periods 5 and 6 (2021–2026). These include plant upgrades, new treatment facilities, pump house construction, and pipeline replacements to reduce Non-Revenue Water losses. 'Sustainable funding is critical to delivering these planned infrastructure projects,' SAINS added. SPAN has confirmed receiving tariff review applications from water operators in 10 states, including Negeri Sembilan, Penang, Perlis, Kedah, Kelantan, Terengganu, Selangor, Melaka, Johor, and Pahang. Assessments are ongoing. - Bernama

Proposed water tariff hike in Negeri Sembilan affects over 490,000 users: SAINS
SEREMBAN: The proposed water tariff adjustment in Negri Sembilan is expected to boost the state's water supply system and asset capabilities, ensuring long-term sustainability, said Syarikat Air Negeri Sembilan Sdn Bhd (SAINS). In a statement, SAINS said the new tariff structure will affect all customer categories, covering more than 490,000 accounts. However, domestic users consuming less than 20 cubic metres per month will continue to receive subsidised rates under the revised structure. "The proposed tariff review is currently under evaluation by the National Water Services Commission (SPAN) and will require federal government approval before implementation," it said. SAINS called for public understanding and cooperation, stressing that the tariff adjustment is necessary to improve water service delivery and infrastructure across the state, as well as ensure a sufficient supply of treated water for the future. One of the main challenges, it said, is ageing infrastructure, particularly asbestos cement pipes prone to frequent bursts, which often disrupt supply. SAINS said the rising demand for water is driven by rapid development in Seremban and Port Dickson, population growth, and industrial projects under the Malaysian Vision Valley 2.0 initiative. Shifting climate conditions have also affected raw water quality, leading to higher treatment costs to meet national drinking water standards. To address these challenges, SAINS is undertaking continuous infrastructure development projects to ensure a sufficient water supply for current needs and future demand across various sectors and industries. "SAINS has allocated nearly RM1.3 billion for projects under Operational Periods 5 and 6 (2021–2026) as outlined in its Business Plan. These include plant upgrades, construction of new treatment plants and pump houses, Non-Revenue Water reduction programmes, and replacement of ageing pipelines statewide," it said. SAINS stressed that sustainable funding is critical to delivering these planned infrastructure projects. Previously, SPAN confirmed it had received tariff review applications from water operators in 10 states under its jurisdiction. Detailed assessments are still underway. In addition to Negeri Sembilan, the states involved are Penang, Perlis, Kedah, Kelantan, Terengganu, Selangor, Melaka, Johor, and Pahang. - BERNAMA
