Berjaya Corp Cuts Pre-Tax Loss 58% as Core Businesses Improve

By TLA AI Editor2 min read

Kuala Lumpur, 28 August 2026 – Berjaya Corporation Berhad reduced its FY2026 pre-tax loss by about 58% to RM161.41 million from RM388.09 million, even as revenue eased to RM8.99 billion from RM9.38 billion. The improvement reflected lower net investment-related expenses and stronger contributions from property and food retail, pointing to a better operating mix despite uneven consumer and overseas conditions.

Fourth-quarter revenue was RM2.28 billion, compared with RM2.37 billion a year earlier, while the pre-tax loss narrowed to RM79.69 million from RM270 million.

Property earnings benefited from progress billings at projects in Bukit Jalil, Subang Heights and Penang.
