Hong Leong Industries Bhd’s profit after tax (PAT) climbed 19.6% to RM792 million for the financial year ended June 30, 2026 (FY26), from RM662 million a year earlier, driven by stronger motorcycle sales, a better sales mix and lower raw material costs.
Full-year revenue rose 3.3% to RM3.69 billion from RM3.57 billion, supported by higher market demand for motorcycles and favourable foreign exchange movements that helped reduce input costs.
Momentum strengthened in the latest quarter, with PAT jumping 25% to RM200 million from RM160 million in the corresponding quarter last year.
Quarterly revenue increased 8.8% to RM916 million, compared with RM842 million previously.
Looking ahead, Hong Leong Industries expects motorcycle demand to remain healthy, supported by their affordability, fuel efficiency and practicality for daily commuting.
The group, however, cautioned that competition is expected to intensify amid a growing influx of motorcycles from China, while geopolitical uncertainties could continue affecting supply chains and input costs.
Hong Leong Industries said it will focus on strengthening its product portfolio, optimising its model mix and improving operational efficiency while maintaining disciplined cost and inventory management.
Barring unforeseen circumstances, the board expects the group to deliver a satisfactory performance for FY27.
