  4. Review of Group's Performance

Overall Review

The Group recorded year to date revenue of RM 5,723.5 million, an increase of 12.0% compared to RM 5,111.1 million in the corresponding period last year. The increase in revenue was mainly due to higher contribution from automotive segment especially from retail operations in Singapore as well as contribution from plantation segment with overall increase in commodities prices and volume.

The Group recorded an operating profit of RM 417.5 million (2024 : RM 839.7 million), decreased by RM 422.2 million and profit before tax of RM 435.6 million compared to RM 772.4 million in the corresponding period last year mainly attributed from lower operating profit from all business segments whilst in the corresponding period last year included a gain on disposal of Bayview Eden Melbourne Hotel in Australia of RM 209.8 million which was completed in March 2024.

12. Review of Group's Performance (Cont'd)

Segmental Analysis

Performance for each operating segment is as follows:-

The revenue from the automotive segment increased by 13.2% to RM 3,342.7 million whilst operating profit decreased by 17.8% to RM 229.4 million respectively.

For the retail operations in Singapore, revenue increased by 33.9% mainly due to higher number of cars sold by 48.0% driven by the consistent rise in Certificate of Entitlement ("COE") quotas. Despite increase in revenue, operating profit decreased by 16.5% mainly due to lower gross profit margin impacted by high COE prices as well as lower interest income from reduction in fixed deposits placement.

For the retail operations in Malaysia, revenue increased by RM 112.8 million while recorded slight higher operating profit by RM 1.5 million. Higher revenue was attributed to higher number of cars sold by 9.3% due to added contribution from BYD models as Kah Progression Auto Sdn. Bhd. has been appointed as dealer for BYD-branded vehicles with business commencement in Q2FY24 and targeted campaigns for year-end sales to boost sales demand. Lower improvement in operating profit mainly attributed from intense competition from rival brands which has impacted on gross profit as well as rising in operational costs.

The plantation segment generated a revenue of RM 1,210.8 million, an increase of 32.8% compared to corresponding period last year of RM 911.8 million and recorded a decrease in operating profit of RM 154.3 million (2024 : RM 211.0 million). Higher revenue was attributed to the higher in FFB, CPO and PK selling prices by 4.1% (2025 : RM 791/MT ; 2024 : RM 760/MT), 4.0% (2025 : RM 3,798/MT ; 2024 : RM 3,651/MT)

and 42.9% (2025 : RM 3,130/MT ; 2024 : RM 2,190/MT) respectively as well as higher CPO sales volume by 32.2%. However, decrease in operating profit was attributed to higher realised and unrealised foreign exchange loss of RM 170.4 million (2024 : realised and unrealised foreign exchange gain of RM 0.3 million) on the weakening of IDR against the CHF and JPY denominated borrowings.

The plastic segment recorded a decrease in revenue of 3.4% to RM 268.7 million (2024 : RM 278.1 million) with decrease in operating profit of 5.2% to RM 31.1 million (2024 : RM 32.8 million) respectively. Decrease in revenue and operating profit were attributed to lower sales orders from domestic automotive customers impacted by the influx of China car models as well as delay in the launching of new models.

Hotels and resorts segment recorded a decrease in revenue of 13.9% to RM 250.4 million (2024 : RM 290.7 million) with operating profit decreased to RM 69.2 million (2024 : RM 310.5 million). Lower revenue was mainly due to overall lower average occupancy rates and average room rates especially from Singapore, Australia and New Zealand hotels as slow pick-up in bookings. Singapore, Australia and New Zealand's hotels performance was impacted by the slow bookings from the new systems as undergoing transition process to the Third Party Management with the adjustment of strategies implementation. Significant decrease in operating profit was mainly attributed to gain on disposal of Bayview Eden Melbourne Hotel in Australia of RM 209.8 million in Q1FY24. Excluded the gain on disposal, operating profit in 2025 decreased by 31.3%.

  1. Review of Group's Performance (Cont'd)

    Revenue from the investment holding segment increased by 11.8% to RM 69.2 million (2024 : RM 61.9 million) and recorded an operating loss of RM 63.3 million (2024: operating profit of RM 82.1 million). Higher revenue was mainly due to slightly higher dividend income received from other investments. Operating loss was attributed to realised and unrealised foreign exchange loss of RM 74.0 million (2024 : realised and unrealised foreign exchange gain of RM 49.4 million) on the weakening of USD against the JPY and CHF denominated borrowings as well as weakening of MYR against the CHF denominated borrowings.

    The investment properties and trading of building material products segment recorded a decrease of 5.7% in revenue to RM 445.8 million (2024 : RM 472.9 million) in tandem with lower sales volume amid operating in a competitive market. Lower operating loss of RM 26.0 million (2024 : RM 104.1 million) was attributed to provision for impairment loss of investment properties in Australia of RM 20.8 million (2024 : provision for impairment loss of investment properties in Australia and reclaimed land in Melaka of RM 97.5 million) due to lower market value impacted by weakening of real estate market in Melbourne.

    Healthcare segment's revenue decreased by 4.9% to RM 136.1 million (2024 : RM 143.1 million) and recorded a decrease in operating profit of RM 22.8 million (2024 : RM 28.3 million) attributed to lower number of patients and operating theatre cases by 7.8% and 4.1% respectively hence impacting gross profit margin.

  2. Material Change in Profit/ Loss Before Taxation ("PBT"/ "LBT") reported as compared with the immediate preceding quarter

Overall Review

The Group's revenue for the fourth quarter of 2025 was RM 1,630.0 million, an increase of RM 214.4 million or 15.1% from RM 1,415.6 million in Q3FY25 with overall increase in revenue except for plastic and investment holding segments.

The Group recorded an operating profit of RM 180.9 million (Q3FY25 : RM 155.9 million), increased by RM 25.0 million and profit before tax of RM 181.6 million compared to RM 164.9 million for Q3FY25 mainly attributed from higher operating profit from all business segments except for investment holding and investment properties and trading of building material products segments.

Segmental Analysis

Performances of each operating segment as compared to the immediate preceding quarter are as follows:-

Revenue from the automotive segment increased by 20.0% to RM 995.4 million (Q3FY25 : RM 829.5 million) with increase in operating profit by 2.3% to RM 67.4 million (Q3FY25 : RM 65.9 million). The increase in revenue was mainly attributed to higher number of cars sold by 40.0% from retail operations in Singapore and Malaysia. Slight improvement in operating profit was mainly from retail operations in Malaysia as management has adopted measurement in saving in operational expenses during the competitive business environment.

  1. Material Change in Profit/ Loss Before Taxation ("PBT"/ "LBT") reported as compared with the immediate preceding quarter (Cont'd)

    The plantation segment generated a revenue of RM 320.2 million, an increase of 20.6% compared to immediate preceding quarter of RM 265.5 million and recorded an operating profit of RM 71.7 million (Q3FY25 : RM 21.9 million). Higher revenue was attributed to the increase in CPO and PK sales volume by 29.7% and 18.0% respectively as well as higher PK selling price by 3.4%. Operating profit was mitigated by realised and unrealised foreign exchange loss of RM 4.5 million (Q3FY25 : RM 34.5 million) on the weakening of IDR against the JPY and CHF denominated borrowings.

    Revenue from the plastic segment decreased by 2.4% to RM 69.7 million (Q3FY25 : RM 71.4 million) while slight increase in operating profit of 3.3% to RM 9.4 million (Q3FY25 : RM 9.1 million). Decrease in revenue mainly due to lower sales order from domestic automotive customers while mitigated with aggressive promotion at year end for certain customers. Slight improvement in operating profit mainly due to improvement in operations and cost controls.

    Hotels and resorts segment recorded an increase in revenue of 11.3% to RM 68.0 million (Q3FY25 : RM 61.1 million) and an increase in operating profit of RM 16.3 million (Q3FY25 : RM 15.6 million). Higher revenue and operating profit were mainly due to overall higher average occupancy rates especially from Australia hotels with higher bookings from corporate, event, domestic leisure segment, school holidays as well as festive period in December.

    Revenue from the investment holding segment decreased to RM 26.1 million (Q3FY25 : RM 40.8 million) and recorded an operating profit of RM 23.0 million (Q3FY25 : RM 42.3 million). Lower revenue mainly due to lower dividend income received from other investments of RM 23.0 million (Q3FY25 : RM 40.0 million). While lower operating profit was attributed to withholding tax on dividends of RM 21.2 million (Q3FY25 : RM Nil) cushioned by the realised and unrealised foreign exchange gain of RM 27.2 million (Q3FY25 : RM 2.0 million) on the strengthening of MYR against the CHF denominated borrowings.

    The investment properties and trading of building material products segment recorded a 2.0% increase in revenue to RM 115.5 million (Q3FY25 : RM 113.1 million) in tandem with higher sales volume. Higher operating loss of RM 13.5 million (Q3FY25 : RM 4.7 million) was mainly due to provision for impairment loss of investment properties in Australia of RM 20.8 million (Q3FY25 : RM Nil) due to lower market value impacted by weakening of real estate market in Melbourne. The segment remains facing stiff price competition for its building material products.

    Healthcare segment's revenue increased by 2.9% to RM 35.1 million (Q3FY25: RM 34.1 million) with operating profit increased to RM 6.6 million (Q3FY25 : RM 5.9 million) attributed to higher number of patients by 3.3%.

  2. Current Year Prospects

The International Monetary Fund ("IMF") has projected global growth at 3.3% for 2026 and 3.2% for 2027, revised slightly up since the October 2025 World Economic Outlook. Global inflation is expected to fall, but US inflation will return to target more gradually. Key downside risks are re-evaluation of technology expectations and escalation of geopolitical tensions.

The automotive industry has witnessed substantial transformations driven by rapid evolution of new technologies towards electrification and autonomous vehicles, regulatory shifts, evolving consumer demands, interest rates and global events. Beginning 2026, excise duty exemptions on completely-built-up ("CBU") EVs have been removed, after which domestic assembly take precedence. Management will continue enhance its sales and after-sales services with strong promotional campaigns while staying well-informed as the automotive industry navigates the uncertainties that lie ahead in 2026.

For the Singapore market, the adoption of Electric Vehicles ("EVs") is expected to continue increasing in 2026, with the market projected to expand at a compound annual growth rate ("CAGR") of 32.73%. This growth is supported by the government's Electric Vehicle Early Adoption Incentive ("EVEAI") programme, as well as its broader goal of transitioning the entire vehicle population to zero emissions by 2040. Management will continue to pursue strategic initiatives, including the introduction of fuel-efficient models to cater to customers who are not yet ready to fully transition to electric vehicles.

The plastic segment continues to face competitive environment from other industry players i.e., automotive sector although the sector is seeing positive signs of recovery. Management will continue to exercise cost rationalisation and productivity improvement.

Research firm BMI, a Fitch Solutions company projects a modest easing of prices in 2026, commonly estimated at around RM4,300 per tonne, as near-term supply constraints, particularly labour shortages gradually improve. CPO futures on Bursa Malaysia Derivatives (BMD) are expected to trade within the range of RM3,800 to RM4,000 per tonne in the first half of 2026. Management of the plantation segment will continue to implement necessary measures to ensure that all estates and mills operate efficiently, remain cost-effective, and sustain their competitiveness. Foreign exchange exposure arising from borrowings will also be closely monitored and actively managed.

In May 2025, the management of the Australia and New Zealand hotel portfolio was transferred to a third-party operator, Accor. Subsequently, in September 2025, the management of the Singapore hotel was also transitioned to a third-party operator, The Ascott Limited ("Ascott"). The portfolios are currently undergoing a structured transition process, which is expected to enhance operational performance and drive improved profitability for the hotels and resorts segment.

On 13 February 2026, the Group has obtained Stockholders' approval at the EGM to acquire three hotels and an office tower located in Pulau Pinang and Langkawi.The hotels will be rebranded and managed by a third-party operator, Ascott, and are expected to benefit from Ascott's strong global reputation, established service standards, and extensive distribution network. The assets are slated for refurbishment to elevate them to international standards and enhance long-term returns. The acquisitions will strengthen OHB Group's hospitality portfolio.

  1. Current Year Prospects (Cont'd)

    The healthcare segment will continue to focus on strengthening brand awareness and positioning the hospital for sustainable growth.

    The Board will continue to seek business opportunities that will complement its existing businesses and further consolidate and strengthen the Group's financial strength to meet the challenges ahead.
