“MGB’s dividend track record over the past few financial years reflects our commitment to delivering sustainable value to shareholders. As MGB continues to pursue larger-scale opportunities both domestically and internationally, including projects in Saudi Arabia, it is important that we retain sufficient financial resources to support project execution, working capital requirements and future expansion.”
“MGB entered FY2026 with strengthened earnings visibility following the successful replenishment of its order book. During FY2025, the Group secured more than RM1.0 billion in new contracts, including approximately RM532.6 million worth of projects in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. These contract wins not only strengthen the Group’s revenue visibility but also position MGB to participate in larger-scale opportunities across both domestic and international markets. As we move forward, we remain focused on executing our projects efficiently, enhancing operational performance and pursuing strategic opportunities that can strengthen earnings and support sustainable shareholder returns.”
With a strong balance sheet, growing order book and an expanding local and regional footprint, MGB is building a solid foundation for future growth, positioning the Group to capture larger projects, enhance earnings profile and deliver increasing value to shareholders over time.
