Summary:

  • Vicplas International expects to report a consolidated net loss for the financial year ended 31 July 2025.

  • Loss is mainly due to:

    • Lower positive results from the pipes and pipe fittings segment.

    • Continued negative results from the medical devices segment, including start-up and ramp-up costs at the Mexico plant and ongoing costs at the Changzhou plant extension.

    • Higher finance costs.

  • Medical devices revenue grew, but profit constrained by new plant costs as Mexico and China facilities ramp up utilization.

  • Pipes and fittings segment benefited from strong construction activity in Singapore but faced increased competition and credit risk.

  • Group’s adjusted EBITDA for FY2025 is expected to remain positive and exceed S$4.4 million reported for 1H FY2025.

  • The medical devices segment continues to invest in scaling up global operations.

  • Final FY2025 results are expected on or before 29 September 2025; shareholders advised to exercise caution.
