KUALA LUMPUR (Feb 25): PMB Technology Bhd (KL:PMBTECH) expects margins to remain under pressure in the near term after sliding into its first-ever quarterly and full-year net losses, weighed down by tumbling metallic silicon prices and unfavourable foreign exchange movements. For the fourth quarter ended Dec 31, 2025 (4QFY2025), the metallic silicon manufacturer recorded a net loss of RM18.37 million — its first quarter in the red — a sharp reversal from a net profit of RM45.15 million a year earlier. This was despite revenue surging 61.9% to RM283.1 million from RM174.87 million, its bourse filing showed. No dividend was proposed by PMB Tech for FY2025, citing its ongoing silicon plant expansion. “Against this backdrop, the group expects margin conditions to remain tight in the near term,” the group said.
