Net profit rose 279.3% YoY to RM11.0 million from RM2.9 million in Q4 FY24, marking a new quarterly record for the group and contributing to the highest full-year net profit ever achieved.
The growth in financial performance was driven by growth across all business segments, namely conventional pawnbroking, gold and luxury products retail and

The price of gold also contributed to strong growth, averaging US$4,353/oz in Q4 FY25, up from US$2,609/oz in Q4 FY24.
Commenting on the group’s financial achievements, executive director and group
managing director Datuk Low Kok Chuan said the group delivered the highest full-year revenue and net profit in history.
“This reflects the resilience and scalability of EMCC’s business model. With a larger outlet network, expanding loan book, and strengthened funding base, the group is well-positioned to capture a larger share of the market,” he said.
For FY25, revenue rose 75.4% to RM214.5 million from RM122.3 million in the
previous financial year, while net profit increased 68.8% to RM37.0 million from
RM21.9 million earlier.
Total loan disbursements across the conventional pawnbroking and Tawarruq segments exceeded RM1.0 billion for the year.
By segment, revenue from conventional pawnbroking increased 29.5% to RM56.4
million, with loan disbursements expanding 39.9% YoY to RM747.3 million.
The Tawarruq products segment saw revenue growth of 363.5% to RM26.1 million, with

“We strengthened our position in the Islamic pawnbroking segment, while continuing to grow our conventional pawnbroking business through additional funding lines secured during the year.
“Looking ahead, we will continue to deploy capital in a disciplined manner to sustain
our growth trajectory,” he concluded.
EMCC has declared an interim single-tier dividend of 0.35 sen per share. This brings the total dividends declared for FY25 to 0.65 sen per share, amounting to RM7.3 million, representing a dividend payout ratio of 19.8% of FY25 net profit.
