The Group recorded a revenue of RM5.7 million for the current quarter, a decrease of 38% from the revenue of RM9.2 million for the immediate preceding quarter. The decrease in revenue is primarily attributed to the delay in taking delivery of storage tanks by the customers to data centers as the construction sites are not ready. In addition, customers had held on and delayed their purchase orders as they were concerned on the impact of the expanded scope of Sales and Service Tax implemented by the Government with effect from 01 July 2025.
Part B: Explanatory Notes Pursuant To Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Securities (Cont'd) B2. Comments on results against the immediate preceding quarter (Cont'd)With the decrease in revenue, the Group reported a LBT of RM12.1 million compared to a profit before tax of RM0.3 million in the preceding quarter.

Amidst the uncertainties and unpredictable business environment, the Group will continue to remain cautious and continuously monitor the developments of the global economic growth situation by taking appropriate measures to pursue more projects to expand its revenue base to sustain the Group's business and improve the Group's performance.

Shah Alam High Court Judicial Review Application No. BA-25-126/10/2024 Chip Ngai Engineering Works Sdn Bhd ("Chip Ngai Engineering Works") vs Majlis Bandaraya Subang Jaya ("MBSJ')On 18 October 2024, Chip Ngai Engineering Works, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CN Asia, the applicant, filed a judicial review against MBSJ, the respondent, regarding several actions and notices issued by MBSJ against Chip Ngai Engineering Works ("Judicial Review").
Chip Ngai Engineering Works operates the subject property held under HS(M) 20480, PT 17040, Mukim Petaling, Daerah Petaling, Negeri Selangor, which has been used for industrial purposes since obtaining its Certificate of Fitness in 1994. Originally, Chip Ngai Engineering Works owned the property but sold it to a third party in 2016. Following the sale, Chip Ngai Engineering Works entered into a leaseback arrangement to continue its operations on the premises. Chip Ngai Engineering Works alleges that MBSJ issued multiple unreasonable and unlawful notices ("MBS Notices"), including:
demand to restore the land to its original condition;
orders for business closure to prevent alleged nuisances;
rejection of its application to expand business operations to include storage and office activities; and
revocation of its business and advertisement license during a council meeting without prior notice or justification.
Through the Judicial Review, Chip Ngai Engineering Works seeks to nullify all MBSJ Notices as well as actions taken by MBSJ, secure approval for its business expansion application, and claim compensation for damages caused. In any event if the MBSJ notices are enforced, Chip Ngai Engineering Works may face significant financial losses, operational disruptions, and potential layoff of employees.
In conjunction with the Judicial Review applications, an application of interlocutory injunction was also filed by Chip Ngai Engineering Works to prevent MBSJ from taking further enforcement actions pending the disposal of the Judicial Review ("Injunction"). However, the Injunction application was dismissed by the court on 19 February 2025.
For The Sixth Financial Quarter Ended 30 June 2025 (Cont'd) Part B: Explanatory Notes Pursuant To Main Market Listing Requirements of Bursa Securities (Cont'd) B8. Material litigation, claims and arbitration (Cont'd)Despite the dismissal of the Injunction application, the court simultaneously granted leave for Chip Ngai Engineering Works to proceed with the Judicial Review. The Court has set 26 November 2025 for case management. The court's decision to grant leave for the Judicial Review indicates that the case presents a prima facie arguable issue, warranting further examination by the court.
Chip Ngai Engineering Works' solicitor is of the opinion that Chip Ngai Engineering Works has strong legal grounds to challenge MBSJ's actions, and the court's dismissal of the Injunction application does not affect the merit of Chip Ngai Engineering Works' positions in the Judicial Review.
There was no interim dividend declared during the current quarter and financial year-to-date.
