MSC - Malaysia Smelting Corporation Bhd reported Q4 revenue of MYR480.7 million (+7%) and profit after tax of MYR43.08 million (+30%), with profit attributable to owners at MYR39.91 million (+32%) and basic and diluted EPS of 4.8 sen. Operating profit was MYR57.03 million (+3%) and profit before tax was MYR51.94 million (+4%). For FY2025, MSC - Malaysia Smelting Corporation Bhd posted revenue of MYR1.76 billion (+4%), operating profit of MYR157.72 million (+4%), profit before tax of MYR138.33 million (+5%) and profit after tax of MYR96.36 million (+3%). Profit attributable to owners was MYR81.97 million (+3%), with EPS of 9.8 sen. Net assets per share attributable to owners stood at MYR0.87, and cash, bank balances and deposits were MYR226.13 million as at 31 December 2025. Management said Q4 revenue was lower than Q3 due to lower refined tin and tin-bearing intermediates sales volumes despite a higher average tin price per metric tonne of MYR158,100, while smelting performance improved on higher sales and encashment of higher-margin tin intermediates, higher profit from tantalum slag sales, foreign exchange gains and cost savings from the closure of the Butterworth plant. The company also highlighted ongoing closure and decommissioning of its old Butterworth smelter, and said it expects cost savings while benefiting from higher efficiencies at its PI plant, including a smaller carbon footprint through natural gas use and rooftop solar panels. The board recommended a final single-tier dividend of 4.0 sen per share (MYR33.6 million), bringing total FY2025 dividends declared to 8.0 sen per share.
