KUALA LUMPUR: Oriental Kopi Holdings Bhd
will continue to focus on expanding its cafe outlets in Malaysia and pursuing entry into new overseas markets as part of its growth strategy.
The food and beverage company, in a filing with Bursa Malaysia, said the group is also exploring innovative menu offerings and expanding its range of packaged food products.
“The group is pursuing initiatives to engage overseas distributors to promote its brand of packaged foods to foreign markets.
“This strategy aligns with the group’s expansion plan by introducing Oriental Kopi brand and its product offering to a wider global market, extending beyond the domestic market in which the group is constantly enhancing its distribution networks locally,” it said in the notes accompanying its financial results.
In the fourth quarter ended Sept 30 (4Q25), Oriental Kopi posted a net profit of RM15.9mil, or 0.8 sen per share, while full-year (FY25) earnings came in at RM60.7mil, or 3.25 sen per share.
Quarterly revenue stood at RM133.2mil, with total revenue for FY25 amounting to RM450.9mil.
Compared with the preceding quarter, revenue in 4Q25 was 14.06% higher, up from RM116.75mil previously.
However, the group’s net profit fell 11.46% to RM15.89mil from RM17.9mil in the preceding quarter, mainly due to a higher effective tax rate arising from non-deductible pre-commencement and start-up expenses for new outlets.
The board has declared an interim single-tier dividend of 1 sen per ordinary share for FY25, amounting to RM20mil. The entitlement date is Dec 10, 2025, with the dividend payable on Jan 9, 2026.
Oriental Kopi remains optimistic about its prospects, supported by its competitive strengths, strategic business initiatives, and favourable market conditions in the F&B services sector as well as in the distribution and retailing of our brand of packaged foods.
