TechStore Bhd reported RM53.6 million in revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, with maintenance and support services contributing nearly 70% of turnover. The group delivered a PAT of RM6.8 million—rising to RM7.7 million after excluding listing expenses—while Q3 margins strengthened significantly on higher contributions from recurring maintenance contracts. Backed by a RM106.6 million order book and a RM1.9 billion tender pipeline, TechStore remains well-positioned to capitalise on upcoming rail and GovTech digitalisation initiatives under Budget 2026.

AWC Bhd reported a 3.4% year-on-year increase in revenue to RM97.6 million for the first quarter of FY26, driven by stronger contributions from its engineering division. Net profit, however, eased to RM4.1 million due to slower project progress in the Middle East under the environment division. Despite the softer start, the group remains optimistic, backed by RM270 million in new contract wins for FY26 and a robust order book of RM528 million, positioning AWC for improved performance in the months ahead.

Chin Hin Group Bhd delivered a solid performance for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, with revenue rising 31.9% to RM2.98 billion and gross profit climbing 60.8% as margins strengthened across its integrated intra-build ecosystem. Growth was driven by robust contributions from its construction, property development, and home and living divisions, while its order book and unbilled sales — totalling RM1.72 billion and RM2.3 billion respectively — provide strong earnings visibility. With major capacity expansions underway and new strategic ventures in smart logistics, the group is positioning itself for long-term, sustainable growth.

Backed by strong fundamentals and rising construction demand, the facility positions Expogaya to scale operations and support the state’s growing pipeline of federal- and state-funded developments.
