In the current quarter, the Group registered a higher revenue of RM81.3 million as compared to corresponding quarter of RM79.3 million. This was primarily driven by higher profit and early settlement income arising from increased disbursement and refinancing activities by customers.
The above led to higher pre and post-tax profit after accounting for lower allowances for impairment loss on receivables.
Correspondingly, the Group's pre and post-tax profits for the nine months period ended 31 December 2025 were higher mainly due to higher revenue, lower allowances for impairment loss on receivables, offset with higher operating expenses.

The moderation in the Group's revenue for the current quarter was mainly due to lower financing demand. This was in line with Malaysian civil servants deferring financing ahead of the planned salary adjustment in January 2026.
Notwithstanding that, the Group recorded higher pre and post-tax profit in the current quarter mainly due to lower operating expenses and allowances for impairment loss on receivables.
15. | CURRENT YEAR PROSPECTS |
The demand for financing is expected to trend higher supported by the second phase of salary adjustments for Malaysian civil servants in January 2026 and upcoming festive season.
To strengthen brand recognition and broaden customer outreach, the Group continues to implement targeted marketing initiatives and sales campaigns, alongside strategic digitalisation investments to enhance customers' engagement.
The Group will be profitable for the financial year ending 31 March 2026.
