Focus Point Holdings Berhad (“Focus Point” or “the Group”) is pleased to announce its financial results for the first quarter ended 31 March 2026 (“1QFY26”), recording its highest first-quarter revenue and profits to date, driven by continued growth in the Optical segment and a turnaround in the Food and Beverage (“F&B”) segment.
For 1QFY26, the Group recorded revenue of RM77.3 million, representing a 5.9% increase from RM72.9 million in the corresponding quarter ended 31 March 2025 (“1QFY25”). Profit before tax (“PBT”) rose 16.2% to RM12.4 million from RM10.6 million previously, while profit after tax (“PAT”) increased 16.4% to RM9.2 million from RM7.9 million. Earnings per share improved to 1.50 sen from 1.28 sen.
The stronger performance was mainly driven by the Optical segment, which continued to deliver steady growth and remained the Group’s core earnings contributor. During the quarter, the Optical segment recorded revenue of RM66.8 million, representing a 9.4% increase from RM61.1 million in 1QFY25. Segment PBT also rose 9.4% to RM12.7 million from RM11.6 million previously, mainly attributable to higher revenue achieved during the quarter.
The F&B segment recorded revenue of RM9.6 million compared with RM10.9 million in 1QFY25. Despite the lower revenue, the segment turned around from a loss before tax of RM0.7 million in the previous corresponding quarter to a modest PBT of RM8,000 in 1QFY26. The improvement was mainly due to lower operating expenses, reflecting the Group’s continued focus on cost discipline and operational efficiency.
The Board has declared a first single-tier interim dividend of 0.75 sen per ordinary share in respect of the financial year ending 31 December 2026, payable on 26 June 2026. This is in line with the Group’s enhanced dividend policy, under which the Group intends to distribute at least 50% of its annual profit after tax as dividends on a quarterly basis, providing shareholders with
greater consistency and visibility in returns.
“Starting the year with our strongest first-quarter performance gives us confidence that Focus Point remains on a solid growth path. Beyond the numbers, our Optical business continues to strengthen as a trusted vision care brand, supported by our nationwide reach, professional eye care services and continued investment in customer experience. We are also encouraged by the turnaround in our F&B segment. It shows that the work we have put into improving cost control, operations and product strategy is beginning to deliver results. We will continue to grow carefully, and focus on building a stronger and more resilient Group over the long term,” said Dato’ Liaw Choon Liang, President & Chief Executive Officer of Focus Point.
Additionally, the Group successfully concluded its 17th Annual General Meeting (AGM) today, with all ordinary resolutions duly passed by shareholders.
