Description

Khong Guan Limited finished the financial year ended 31 July 2025 with an expected net loss. This result was mainly caused by the establishment of specific provisions for doubtful debts at a Malaysian subsidiary, along with losses incurred by Singapore operations and the Company itself. However, the overall share of results derived from the associated companies improved markedly compared to the previous year. Looking ahead, management remains cautious due to global trade uncertainties and inflationary pressures, although the price environment may offer some support to associated milling operations.

 

• The Group faced significant operational struggles, necessitating the establishment of substantial provisions related to potential credit difficulties in key regional markets

 

• Revenue generation within Malaysian operations was affected by factors such as a dip in festive consumption and the termination of certain brand distribution rights

 

• The contributions from the Group's associated companies showed a positive turnaround, shifting from an overall loss to providing a net profit contribution
