PETALING JAYA: Spritzer Bhd
will take proactive measures to mitigate the impact of rising cost pressures through operational efficiency, disciplined cost management, procurement strategies, process improvements and productivity enhancements as the operating environment remains challenging for the rest of 2026.
The bottled water manufacturer said in the notes to its financial statements that heightened geopolitical tensions and evolving global trade dynamics, particularly recent developments in the Middle East, have introduced additional uncertainty to energy markets and supply chains.
Despite the challenging environment, Spritzer said demand for its bottled water products across key domestic markets is expected to remain stable, supported by strong brand equity, an established distribution network and continued marketing initiatives.
For the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, Spritzer's net profit rose to RM22.34 mil from RM19.67mil a year earlier, while revenue increased to RM157.98mil from RM148.28mil.
