YTL sees 1Q growth across most segments

YTL Corp’s net profit grew 3.8% y-o-y to RM346.48mil in 1Q26 while revenue declined to RM7.64bil from RM7.77bil.

YTL Corp’s pre-tax profits were weighed in part by the construction and utilities segments.

In its utilities segment, YTL Crop said electricity demand for YTL PowerSeraya Pte Ltd is expected to remain stable.

Malayan Cement recorded a 44% y-o-y jump in net profit to RM200.7mil in 1Q26 on the back of a 4% y-o-y increase in revenue to RM1.22bil.

YTL-REIT’s revenue increased 6% to RM140.5mil as net property income (NPI) rose 12% y-o-y to RM77mil in 1Q26, while income available for distribution climbed 11% to RM29.5mil.

YTL Power saw a dip in its net profit to RM484.7mil in 1Q26 from RM510.6mil a year ago on the back of RM5.36bil revenue.

Renewed optimism on utilities and cement

With renewed optimism on YTL Power and its cement business, we upgrade YTL to Add with a lower TP of RM2.68 (10% discount to SOP).

The missing link remains its construction business but we expect some major government infrastructure awards soon where YTL could be a frontrunner.

Acquisition of CEPCO should be synergetic for cement and construction.
