Vitrox reports lower Q2 profit as demand for test equipment drops

Meanwhile, a strengthening ringgit against the US dollar poses downside earnings risk to net US dollar exporters such as Vitrox.

KUALA LUMPUR: Inspection equipment maker Vitrox Corp Bhd said a drop in demand for its chip testing machines contributed to lower sales and net profit reported in the second quarter ended June 30.

The company, however, is cautiously optimistic about its full year prospects.
