Group revenue for Q2FY2023 was RM220.4 million, an increase of 21.9% as compared to RM180.8 million for Q2FY2022. The increase was due to the increase in sales of both tissue paper and personal care products. The Group recorded a loss of RM5.2 million before tax for Q2FY2023, a decrease of 182% over a profit of RM6.4 million registered in Q2FY2022. Higher costs of raw materials, distribution, and operating utilities such as electricity and gas have negative impact to the margin. Besides, the Group also faced higher exchange losses on the weakening of Ringgit Malaysia against US Dollars.
Group revenue for Q3FY2023 was RM215.7 million, an increase of 3.0% as compared to RM209.5 million for Q3FY2022. The increase was due to the increase in sales of tissue paper products.
The Group recorded a loss before tax of RM6.2 million for Q3FY2023, a decrease of 158.8% over a profit of RM10.5 million registered in Q3FY2022. Higher costs for raw materials, distribution, operating utilities such as electricity and gas and the weakening of Ringgit Malaysia against US Dollars had a negative impact on the margin. Besides, higher interest expenses and administrative expenses have further widened the gap in the quarter-to-quarter financial performance.
16. Prospects The Group’s business operations environment remains challenging and volatile. Although the prices of raw materials and shipping costs remain relatively high but slowly trending downward, the foreign exchange rate of the United States Dollar versus Ringgit Malaysia reversed to trending upwards.
The increase in electricity and gas tariffs since 1 January 2023 has become major cost component in the current financial quarter and beyond. Coupled with higher cost of borrowing, the Group has incurred higher loss in the current quarter. While the demand for tissue paper and personal care products remain stable in the shorter term, competition is intensive in our export market. The Board will continue to be resilient in the changing business environment, control production costs and seize new customers to efficiently utilise its installed production capacity.
Barring unforeseen circumstances, it aims to achieve operationally about break-even in the coming quarter.
NTPM, back in the black. Expected to see an upward trend, with the new major shareholders. Better dividends ahead, if the next quarter is on positive territory.
