KUALA LUMPUR: Farmiera Bhd, a poultry producer and distributor, recorded revenue of RM164.17 million for Q2 ended June 30, 2026 (FY26), while profit before tax (PBT) and profit after tax (PAT) grew 5.61% and 13.11% quarter-on-quarter to RM4.75 million and RM3.48 million, respectively.
The stronger earnings performance was primarily attributable to lower operating costs and non-deductible expenses, demonstrating the group’s continued emphasis on maintaining prudent cost management.
For 1H FY26, Farmiera generated RM331.36 million in revenue, while PBT and PAT stood at RM9.24 million and RM6.55 million, respectively.
The poultry farming segment remained the largest contributor, generating RM174.46 million in revenue, while the poultry processing segment contributed RM156.90 million.
Managing director and CEO Hong How Seng said the group’s performance for 1H FY26 reflects the resilience of our vertically integrated business model and the continued demand for poultry products.
“At the same time, we are strengthening the foundations of our business through the ongoing expansion into upstream broiler breeding and hatchery operations, giving us better control over the day-old-chicks supply, quality and production costs over the longer term,” he said.
He said three parent stock farms were successfully commissioned in 2025, marking an important milestone in the group’s upstream integration journey.
“We remain on track to complete one additional parent stock farm and a hatchery by Q4 of 2026. We believe our strategies will position us to capture opportunities arising from sustained domestic demand.
“While we remain cautious about volatility in feed prices and other input costs, we will continue to focus on operational efficiency, supply-chain resilience and disciplined execution as we progress through 2026,” he said.
