Malayan Cement recorded a 12% increase in revenue to RM1,223.8 million for the 3 months ended 31 March 2026 compared to RM1,095.2 million for the corresponding 3 months ended 31 March 2025. Profit before tax grew 34% to RM347.9 million for the quarter under review compared to RM259.2 million for the same quarter last year, whilst profit after tax rose 35% to RM247.0 million this quarter over RM183.0 million for the corresponding quarter last year.

Tan Sri (Sir) Francis Yeoh Sock Ping, Executive Chairman of Malayan Cement, said, “The increase in revenue was contributed by higher turnover in the ready-mixed concrete and drymix divisions, which was driven by increased demand for high-grade, bespoke ready-mixed concrete products.

“Higher profit before tax was driven mainly by continued rigorous cost management and operational efficiency initiatives, including the increased adoption of renewable energy and waste heat recovery plants, optimisation of advance technological systems, and lower operational and maintenance costs, despite higher transportation costs due to statutory legislation and elevated fuel prices in the market.”

For the cumulative 9 months ended 31 March 2026, revenue increased 8% to RM3,701.3 million compared to RM3,418.8 million for the 9 months ended 31 March 2025, whilst profit after tax rose 34% to RM681.0 million in the current period compared to RM507.5 million for the same period last year.

EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation) increased 17% to RM1,242.9 million for the cumulative 9 months ended 31 March 2026, compared to RM1,061.6 million for the previous corresponding 9 months ended 31 March 2025.
