’s net profit rose more than fourfold to RM7mil in the fourth quarter ended Dec 31, 2025, from RM1.6mil a year earlier.
The group said the stronger performance was mainly driven by higher gross profit, supported by an increase in gold jewellery selling prices, although this was partly offset by higher selling and distribution, as well as administrative expenses.
Its quarterly revenue rose 27.4% to RM65.2mil from RM51.2mil, while earnings per share climbed to 1.88 sen from 0.43 sen.
For the full financial year, net profit more than doubled to RM15.5mil from RM7.2mil, while revenue rose 6.84% to RM247.5mil from RM231.6mil.
