Gardenia maker QAF Limited sees 154% PATMI increase as tax costs decrease

Income tax expense dropped 28% YoY to $1.7m to $.4.4m in H1.

Gardenia maker QAF Limited's profit after tax and minority interests (PATMI) soared by 154% YoY to $12.5m in H1 2024, fueled by lower income tax expenses.

Income tax expense dropped 28% YoY to $1.7m to $.4.4m in H1.

Apart from higher PATMI, the company also reported a 3.0% YoY higher revenue of $309.2m.

QAF Limited attributed its improved revenue to the successful reinstatement of the production lines at its Malaysian bakery factory damaged by floods in December 2021. Its Malaysian Bakery sales increased by $9.1m in H1.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
