Mega Fortris Bhd ended FY26 with mixed profitability, as full-year profit after tax fell to RM6.7 million from RM16.5 million a year earlier, even as the group staged a strong fourth-quarter (4Q26) turnaround with a RM3 million net profit.
For 4Q26, profit after tax reversed from a RM7.7 million loss.
Quarterly revenue, meanwhile, jumped 77.9% year-on-year to RM42.1 million from RM23.7 million, while gross profit margin expanded sharply to 48.8% from 23.7%, supported by recovering customer demand and improved cost management.
For the full year, however, revenue declined 6.7% to RM164.7 million from RM176.4 million.
Mega Fortris Group Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer Datuk Adrian Ng Meng Poh said the full-year performance was affected by trade tariffs, geopolitical tensions, higher raw material and shipping costs, as well as a stronger ringgit, which resulted in a RM4.9 million foreign exchange loss.
“Nevertheless, the fourth-quarter rebound reflected resilient underlying demand and improving operational discipline,” Ng added.
Moving forward, Ng shared that the group enters FY27 cautiously optimistic, with a focus on restoring revenue growth, improving operational efficiency and expanding higher-value technology-enabled solutions.
