Swift Haulage FY2025 Revenue Climbs to RM772.2 Million; Core PBT Rises 12.5% to RM40.4 Million

Selangor, Malaysia, 25 February 2026 – Swift Haulage Berhad, Malaysia’s largest haulier and a leading integrated logistics service provider, reported higher revenue for the financial year ended 31 December 2025 (FY2025), supported by stronger contributions across all business segments.

4QFY2025 Performance

For the fourth quarter ended 31 December 2025 (4QFY2025), the Group recorded:

  • Revenue: RM193.3 million
  • Gross Profit: RM58.7 million
  • Profit Before Tax (PBT): RM9.1 million

Container haulage and land transportation remained the primary revenue pillars, contributing RM73.0 million and RM64.1 million respectively, accounting for 70.9% of total quarterly revenue. The warehousing and container depot segment delivered RM30.9 million, while freight forwarding generated RM25.3 million.

FY2025 Financial Highlights

For FY2025, Swift Haulage achieved:

  • Revenue: RM772.2 million (up 7.7% from RM716.8 million in FY2024)
  • Gross Profit: RM216.6 million (up 7.7%)
  • PBT: RM40.4 million

The container haulage segment contributed RM282.6 million, while land transportation generated RM268.4 million, together accounting for 71.4% of total revenue. Warehousing and container depot services contributed RM128.6 million, and freight forwarding added RM92.2 million.

The revenue growth was driven by an uptick in container haulage activities, higher contributions from land transportation, expanded logistics warehouse operations, container depot services and increased freight forwarding activities.

While reported PBT declined 17.2% year-on-year from RM48.8 million, this was largely due to a high base effect, as FY2024 included a one-off gain of RM12.9 million from the disposal of a 12.5% stake in Global Vision Logistics Sdn Bhd. Excluding this one-off gain, core PBT grew 12.5% year-on-year, underscoring the sustainability of the Group’s operating performance.

Financial Position and Dividend

As at 31 December 2025, the Group maintained:

  • Cash balance: RM54.0 million
  • Net gearing: 1.06x
  • Shareholders’ funds: RM737.0 million

The Board declared a second interim single-tier dividend of 0.8 sen per ordinary share for FY2025, payable on 10 April 2026 to shareholders on record as at 27 March 2026.

Strategic Outlook for FY2026

Group Chief Executive Officer Loo Yong Hui said FY2025 results reflected the resilience of Swift Haulage’s integrated logistics platform and diversified revenue base.

Looking ahead to FY2026, the Group expects demand across core logistics segments to remain resilient. The upcoming completion of the Shah Alam International Logistics Hub (SAILH) in the second quarter of 2026 will add 2.8 million square feet of warehouse capacity, significantly enhancing the Group’s logistics network.

Swift Haulage is also preparing to commence cold chain operations, targeting growth opportunities in food, pharmaceuticals and perishable goods logistics. At the same time, the Group continues to prioritise operational efficiency, fleet optimisation and cost discipline, while advancing sustainability initiatives through the expansion of its electric vehicle (EV) prime mover fleet and charging infrastructure.

Expansion opportunities in East Malaysia are also under evaluation to further broaden the Group’s geographic footprint and capture trade-driven growth.

Despite fluid global economic and regulatory conditions, Swift Haulage remains cautiously optimistic that its diversified platform, strengthened asset base and sustainability-focused investments will support stable performance and sustainable growth in FY2026 and beyond.
