Press Metal Aluminium Holdings Bhd delivered record quarterly earnings for the three months ended Sept 30, 2025 (3Q25), with profit after tax and minority interests (PATAMI) jumping 40% to RM563.3 million.
Revenue rose 7.9% to RM4.08 billion, supported by higher sales volume, stronger realised prices and easing alumina costs, partially offset by lower contributions from associates.
For the nine months of FY25 (9M25), the company posted revenue of RM12.16 billion, up 7.2% year-on-year, while PATAMI climbed 14.6% to RM1.51 billion, underscoring sustained operational strength.
Reflecting the strong results, Press Metal declared a third interim dividend of two sen per share, payable on Dec 24, 2025.
Group CEO Tan Sri Paul Koon said that although global uncertainties continue to weigh on sentiment, structural demand from green sectors such as electric vehicles, solar infrastructure and consumer electronics remains robust.
“Tight regional supply and moderating input costs, particularly alumina, are also supporting aluminium prices and margins,” he said, adding that Press Metal continues to maintain stable offtake across key export markets while benefitting from improved cost competitiveness as new alumina refinery capacity comes online.
