KUALA LUMPUR: MClean Technologies Bhd continues to see stable performance, supported by sustained demand from the hard disk drive (HDD) and consumer electronics sectors.

It said these segments remain buoyed by ongoing digitalisation, rising storage needs and growing data centre investments.

The precision cleaning and surface treatment solutions provider added that its expertise in precision cleaning and surface treatment continues to strengthen its role as a trusted partner within these critical technology supply chains.

In the third quarter ended Sept 30, 2025 (3Q25), MClean’s net profit surged 168% to RM3.04mil, or 1.24 sen per share, bringing its cumulative profit for the period almost fourfold higher to RM8.93mil, or 3.63 sen per share.

The improvement was supported by better cost of sales management, stronger margins and stable administrative expenses.

Quarterly revenue rose 5.25% to RM17.1mil, while revenue for the nine-month period increased 9.5% to RM49.2mil.

MClean attributed the stronger topline to increased activity across both its precision cleaning and surface treatment segments.

Executive chairman and executive director Datuk Dr Terence Tea Yeok Kian said the group’s 3Q25 results reflect the consistency of its performance and the strength of its operating model.

He added that improving gross margins, better cost efficiencies and sustained customer demand have continued to drive strong, profitable growth.

“The capabilities of MClean Plastic have further enhanced our value proposition within the industry, especially in supporting demand for precision cleaning services,” Tea said.

“Looking ahead, we are optimistic as we enter the next phase of growth. Our expansion plans, particularly the new HDD plating business, the increased production capacity in Thailand, and the upcoming cleaning facility in Johor Bahru, will strengthen our regional footprint.

“We also anticipate new orders in the plastic injection moulding segment, which will deepen our involvement across the HDD supply chain. These initiatives set a solid foundation for continued earnings growth in 2026 and beyond,” he added.
