Tiong Nam sees positive outlook for FY2026
'As regional trade strengthens and supply chains recalibrate across
Asia, we are well-positioned to serve as a vital connection in logistics networks,' managing director Ong Yoong Nyock said in a statement.
The logistics solutions provider posted a net profit of RM43mil, or earnings per share of 8.15 sen compared with RM10.6mil, or 2.06 sen a year ago.
Tiong Nam said the profit growth stemmed primarily from a positive fair value adjustment on investment properties, comprising its logistics warehousing assets.
This was complemented by robust logistics and warehousing activity, contributing to an 18.2% rise in group revenue to RM228.7mil in 4Q25 from RM193.4mil previously.
'Our logistics and warehousing operations demonstrate sustained performance, supported by resilient demand and growing customer relationships.
'Our network development is integral to enhancing our capabilities and enabling increased scale to meet rising market needs for integrated logistics solutions. This initiative advances our position as a leading total logistics solutions provider, ensuring efficient supply chains nationwide,' Ong said.
For the full year ended March 31, Tiong Nam's revenue grew 13.8% to RM863.6mil from RM758.6mil in FY24.
Net profit for FY25 fell to RM41.5mil from RM57.3mil previously, mainly attributed to higher fair value gains recorded in the prior year compared to the current quarter under review.
The results also reflect higher operating and finance costs associated with expanded warehouse assets,' it said.

Australia and NZ dollars bounce, rate cut buzz still a burden
SYDNEY: The Australian and New Zealand dollars regained some footing on Friday as their US counterpart ran into fresh selling, but for the week both nursed losses as markets increased bets on rate cuts at home. The Aussie edged up 0.3 per cent to US$0.6505, and off a three-week low of US$0.6454 hit overnight. That left it down 1 per cent for the week and short of a recent eight-month top of US$0.6595. The kiwi dollar bounced 0.4 per cent to US$0.5955, having touched a trough of US$0.5906 overnight. It was down 0.9 per cent on the week, moving further away from a nine-month high of US$0.6120 hit on July 1. A surprisingly soft jobs report this week has seen markets move to fully price in a quarter-point rate cut to 3.60 per cent from the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) when it meets on August 12. There is talk the RBA might consider an easing of 50 basis points, as they did in May, though that might look like it was admitting a mistake by not cutting this month. One hurdle is the consumer price report for the second quarter due at the end of July where a reading on core inflation of 0.8 per cent or above could give the RBA pause. Most analysts are expecting around 0.7 per cent, which would see annual core inflation slow to 2.7 per cent, from 2.9 per cent, and nearer the middle of the RBA's 2 per cent to 3 per cent target band. The disappointing jobs data suggests it would now take a very high inflation number to prevent a cut, while a result around 0.6 per cent could see the market get even more dovish. "Should Q2 CPI print weaker and reciprocal US tariff developments step up, then we may well head into the August meeting with more than 25bp priced," said Su-Lin Ong, chief economist at RBC Capital Markets. "There are clearer signs of loosening with the labour market moving more into balance from erring tight," she added. "Coupled with inflation back within target, this suggests that policy settings should move more quickly towards neutral." Ong is tipping cuts in August, November and early next year. Market are priced for a finishing point of 3.10 per cent, with a 40 per cent chance of reaching 2.85 per cent. New Zealand's CPI report is due on Monday and forecast to show a rise in the annual pace to 2.8 per cent from 2.5 per cent, largely due to food and electricity prices. However, core measures are expected to be more benign, leaving the door open to a rate reduction in August.

iCents Group Eyes 10 Pct Revenue Growth For 2026
BUSINESS KUALA LUMPUR, July 17 – Cleanroom and other facility services provider, iCents Group Holdings Bhd make its debut on the ACE Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities, today. (Photo credit: iCents Group Holdings Bhd) KUALA LUMPUR, July 17 (Bernama) -- iCents Group Holdings Bhd has targeted a 10 per cent growth in revenue for 2026, driven by an expected rise in contribution from its manufacturing operations. Managing director Ong Mum Fei said the group's manufacturing of cleanroom fixtures and related products accounts for 10 to 15 per cent of overall revenue, with contribution expected to rise as the company ramps up production and expands its facility. 'We are also progressively securing projects over the next few months. This year, we anticipate securing more data centre projects, although most of the recognised revenue will come in 2027,' he told a press conference after the company's listing ceremony here today. iCents made its debut on the ACE Market with its share price opening at 29 sen, a five sen premium over its initial public offering (IPO) price of 24 sen, with 13.59 million shares traded. The group is mainly involved in providing cleanroom services, including engineering, procurement, construction, and testing, and the commissioning of cleanrooms catering to semiconductor and electronics manufacturing, data centres, pharmaceutical, and life sciences sectors. Ong noted that the company's new facility in Mantin, Negeri Sembilan, is expected to begin operations in the first quarter of next year, while the plan to tap local and international markets like Kuching, Sarawak and Jakarta, Indonesia, is expected to materialise within a year. He said that the clean room and facility service provider does not currently have a dividend policy but is planning to introduce one. "We are planning to allocate a payout of between 20 and 25 per cent of annual profits while balancing the need to retain funds for capital expenditure," he said. On the impact of tighter export controls, Ong said the group does not foresee any immediate effect on its business because most of its revenue comes from recurring sources.

SkyGate to raise stake in SkyGate Integration to 95% via RM9.8mil share deal
KUALA LUMPUR: SkyGate Solutions Bhd has entered into a share sale agreement with Ong Chee Fui to acquire a 44% equity interest in SkyGate Integration Sdn Bhd for RM9.8mil. In a filing with Bursa Malaysia, the telecommunications and technology firm said the purchase will be fully satisfied through the issuance of approximately 14.63 million new SkyGate shares at 67 sen per share. This follows SkyGate's earlier announcement on April 15, 2025 regarding the acquisition of a 51% stake in SkyGate Integration for RM10.71mi cash. As part of that deal, SkyGate Integration owed RM1.08mil to Ong, which was part of a loan from Kumpulan Modal Perdana Sdn Bhd (KMP). Under the current proposal, SkyGate will settle the RM1.08mil owed to Ong by issuing 1.61 million new SkyGate shares at 67 sen per share. Upon completion of the proposed acquisition, SkyGate Integration will become a 95%-owned subsidiary of the company. SkyGate said the proposed acquisition is part of its long-term strategy to grow the group's business, strengthen operations, and deliver greater value to shareholders. It added that the move will enhance its market position and support growth in the electrical and electronics (E&E) sector. SkyGate Integration's expertise in software development, system integration, and technology solutions complements the group's existing portfolio, allowing it to offer a wider range of services to more customers.
