KINGMAKER (01170) announced that the group's orders showed growth in the first quarter ending March 31, 2026, primarily driven by brand customers accelerating shipments during the 90-day tariff grace period. The order growth mainly originated from the Cambodia factory, which offers a more competitive cost structure.

According to unaudited data from the company's management accounts, the board preliminarily estimates that the group's revenue for the first quarter of fiscal year 2026 increased approximately 7.9% compared to the same period last year.

Under the tariff-related short-term uncertain environment, the group remains vigilant and prioritizes financial health and business resilience. The group is actively engaging in discussions with brand customers regarding product development and procurement plans.

The group possesses an excellent production platform and is well-prepared to handle potential new orders, while actively consolidating preparations for market recovery. Looking ahead, the group maintains a positive outlook for long-term growth and development.
