KUALA LUMPUR: Lim Seong Hai Capital Bhd (LSH Capital) will continue to focus on maintaining a healthy project pipeline by actively tendering for new infrastructure, building and concession jobs.

At the same time, the group will selectively assess strategic landbank opportunities within the Klang Valley and other key growth corridors.

In the first quarter ended Dec 31, 2025 (1Q26), LSH Capital’s net profit jumped 40.6% to RM26mil, translating into earnings per share of 3.10 sen, compared with RM18.5mil, or 2.62 sen, a year earlier.

Quarterly revenue climbed 59.4% to a record RM154.3mil from RM96.8mil previously, mainly driven by the progression of several construction projects into their peak construction phases, as well as recurring income contributions from the group’s facilities management business.

LSH Capital has declared an interim single-tier dividend of 1.03 sen per ordinary share, amounting to approximately RM8.64mil, for the financial year ending Sept 30, 2026.

The entitlement date is set for March 12, 2026, with payment to be made on March 19, 2026.

Non-executive chairman Tan Sri Lim Keng Cheng said 1Q26 marks a strong start to the financial year, with record revenue driven by disciplined execution across the group’s project pipeline and steady contributions from its recurring income platform.

“We will remain focused on delivery, cost discipline and prudent capital deployment, while continuing to build a more balanced earnings mix over time,” he said in a statement.
