Yinson's Q1 earnings drop 43pct to RM115mil, revenue down to RM1.23bil
This was primarily due to the reclassification of FPSO Anna Nery as a joint venture following its disposal and higher administrative expenses.
Its revenue dropped 44 per cent to RM1.23 billion from RM2.21 billion in the same quarter last year, mainly due to reduced contributions from engineering, procurement, construction, installation and commissioning (EPCIC) activities.
The performance was also due to FPSO Maria Quitéria and FPSO Atlanta having already achieved first oil on Oct 15 and Dec 31, 2024 respectively, while the Agogo FPSO remains in its final construction phase.
Yinson said the ongoing progress of its projects under construction remains on track and aligned with the group's expectations.
The company declared an interim single-tier dividend of 2.0 sen per share for the financial year 2026, amounting to approximately RM56 million, with the entitlement and payment dates set for Sept 4 and Sept 26 respectively.
In a filing with Bursa Malaysia, Yinson said demand in the FPSO market remains strong, particularly for contractors like itself that offer emissions reduction technologies and have a proven track record in timely delivery, safety, and operational excellence.
"The demand for FPSOs is positive with the increase in project sanctions around the world particularly from Brazil, being the highest FPSO demand centre, followed by West Africa," it said.
In the face of various macroeconomic challenges such as geopolitical tensions, inflation, and tighter financial conditions, Yinson added that it will continue to implement prudent strategies to manage inflation and interest rate risks.
"As part of our ongoing efforts to focus on the core areas of our business, we will also strategically and continuously review our non-FPSO businesses for streamlining opportunities," it said.
Yinson expressed confidence in the outlook for its core businesses, stating that its investments in building a strong sustainability foundation will position the company well to navigate ongoing uncertainties.

Yinson's Brazil FPSO projects to generate over US$12bil through 2045
KUALA LUMPUR: Yinson Holdings Bhd's three floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) assets in Brazil are expected to generate a combined contracted value of over US$12 billion through 2045. Group executive chairman Lim Han Weng said the projects will also play a key role in meeting the South American nation's long-term energy demands. "These projects are a result of close collaboration with our clients, partners, the Brazilian government, regulatory bodies and the local supply chain," he said. "It reflects what can be achieved when Malaysian and Brazilian ambition and capabilities come together." Lim made the remarks at a dinner reception in Rio de Janeiro hosted by Yinson in honour of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, commemorating the strong and growing ties between Malaysia and Brazil. Also present at the event were Investment, Trade and Industry Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz and Transport Minister Anthony Loke. Held under the theme 'Partnerships for Progress', the event celebrated the milestone of achieving first oil from FPSO Atlanta, Yinson's third FPSO in Brazil delivered to client Brava Energia. Yinson had earlier welcomed Anwar to Rio de Janeiro in November 2024 to mark the deepening bilateral relationship and the presence of its FPSO operations in the South American country.

BRICS a new frontier for Malaysian businesses, says Anwar
RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil: Malaysian companies must be willing to explore new markets and trading opportunities overseas, says Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. The Prime Minister said they must not solely rely on traditional markets, but instead venture into new ones. Anwar said platforms like the BRICS offer enormous opportunities and praised Malaysian companies Petronas and Yinson Production for their successful ventures in Brazil. Anwar, who is here at the invitation of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva to attend the 17th BRICS Leaders' Summit, said Lula was surprised to see Malaysian companies doing business in the country. "I mentioned Yinson and Petronas to him, and their role in Brazil. He was surprised and asked for more details," he said at a dinner hosted by Yinson Production here. Also present were Investment, Trade and Industry Minister Datuk Seri Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz and Yinson Holdings Bhd executive chairman Lim Han Weng. Yinson, an independent owner and operator of floating, production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels, has three projects in Brazil since 2023, namely FPSO Anna Nery, FPSO Maria Quiteria and FPSO Atlanta. Petronas has ventured into oil production in Brazil and last year opened its petrol station as well. Anwar, who is also Finance Minister, said that although Malaysia's biggest market and source of investment is the United States and China, there are opportunities beyond them. Anwar said he has asked Zafrul to facilitate and offer assistance to Malaysian companies doing business in Brazil. Brazil has not only shown its strength as a voice of the third world, but has also become an important economic power, he said. In his meeting with Lula da Silva this morning, Anwar said they discussed various issues of importance between the two countries. Anwar said Lula has accepted his invitation to visit Malaysia during the Asean Summit in October. "He wants to bring key ministers and business groups to Malaysia. There will be a special conference with both of us jointly addressing the event," he said. Malaysia participated in the BRICS Leaders' Summit as a partner country and as Asean chair 2025. It officially became a BRICS partner country on Jan 1, 2025. Bilateral trade between Malaysia and Brazil increased by 14.6% to RM20.35bil (US$4.38bil) in 2024, rising from RM17.43bil recorded in 2023. Brazil is one of Malaysia's main trading partners in Latin America. – Bernama
