PETALING JAYA: Hartanah Kenyalang Bhd
’s saw a drop in both its topline and bottomline for the first quarter ended Jan 31, 2026 (1Q26).
In a filing to Bursa Malaysia, the construction firm's revenue fell 46.6% to RM23.87mil in 1Q26 from RM44.73mil in the same quarter a year earlier.
The drop, according to the group, was mainly due to the completion of Sekolah Daif: Tambay Project in April 2025, the Yayasan International School Sibu Project in June 2025, as well as the Sg Padas Bridge Project in August 2025 and Sekolah Daif: Tebedu Project in September 2025.
Its net profit dropped 64.2% to RM674,000 in 1Q26 from RM1.8mil in line with the reduced revenue and increased staff costs.
Moving forward, the developer noted its prospects are favourable, supported by the construction industry in Sarawak and the state’s growing emphasis on renewable energy and water infrastructure spending.
Its wholly-owned subsidiary, Hartanah Construction Sdn Bhd secured its first design and build project on Jan 30, 2026, for the construction of a new prison in Sibu with a capacity of 1,000 inmates.
“We are optimistic this maiden design and build project will create opportunities to secure more design and build projects in future,” it said.
Furthermore, its recently 60% incorporated subsidiary, Hartanah Kenari Sdn Bhd aims to expand to West Malaysia and has submitted tenders for projects.
“Barring any unforeseen circumstances and the conflicts from the Middle East, which the group continues to monitor, the board of directors of Hartanah is optimistic about the future prospects of the group.”
