LSH Capital Announces Record FY2025 Dividend Amid Strong Profit Growth

Lim Seong Hai Capital Bhd (LSH Capital) has announced its highest-ever dividend payout after delivering stronger earnings for the financial year ended Sept 30, 2025 (FY2025). The group declared a fourth interim dividend of 1.55 sen per share, bringing total dividends for the year to 3.89 sen, amounting to RM32.6 million — equivalent to 31.6% of FY2025 earnings.

According to the company’s latest filing, the final interim dividend carries an ex-date of Dec 10 and will be paid on Dec 22.

Quarterly and Full-Year Performance

For the fourth quarter, LSH Capital posted a net profit of RM34.60 million, a 5.2% increase from RM32.88 million in the same period last year. Growth was driven by higher-margin trading of building materials within the construction division and additional contributions from its newly established facilities management segment. Earnings per share came in at 4.13 sen, compared with 4.65 sen a year earlier.

Quarterly revenue climbed 60.7% to RM135.49 million, supported by ongoing construction progress, the advancement of the LSH Segar property development project, and contributions from facilities management operations at the KL Tower and the River of Life’s Kolam Biru initiative.

For the full FY2025, the group recorded a net profit of RM100.81 million, marking a strong 35.6% rise from RM74.33 million in FY2024. Revenue expanded 27.5% to RM460.73 million.

• Construction remained the largest revenue contributor at RM276.58 million.

• Property development revenue more than doubled to RM158.60 million, reflecting strong market demand for commercial property in KL and surrounding regions.

• Facilities management added RM25.56 million to the group’s annual performance.

BEST Collaboration Framework Continues to Drive Results

Chairman Tan Sri Lim Keng Cheng attributed the group’s strong profitability and record dividend payout to the effectiveness of LSH Capital’s BEST Collaboration Framework, introduced in 2021. The framework integrates construction, engineering, trading of construction products, and property development, enabling the group to deliver comprehensive, value-added solutions to clients.

He noted that the model was jointly developed with his children, who now play active roles across the business — combining generational experience with innovative, forward-thinking strategies.

Expanding Portfolio and Ongoing Projects

LSH Capital’s construction order book currently stands at RM1.31 billion, consisting of 16 active projects. Meanwhile, its property development pipeline now carries a gross development value (GDV) of RM1.68 billion, including upcoming developments in Titiwangsa and the 597-acre Morib Rejuvenation Project — a growth trend that reflects rising demand for industrial property in the Subang area, as well as commercial property opportunities across Kuala Lumpur and Selangor.

As the group continues to expand its property and construction footprint, these developments indirectly support market interest in surrounding industrial zones, including industrial land in Selangor, factory spaces in Puchong, and office space in Bukit Jalil, where business activity continues gaining momentum.

Market Performance

Following the announcement, LSH Capital’s share price closed seven sen higher at RM2.19, giving the group a market value of RM1.84 billion. The stock has surged more than 163% year-to-date, reflecting strong investor confidence in the company’s strategy and long-term prospects.
