Creativity With A Conscience: Maybank Amplifies Conservation And Core Values Via The 8th MyTIGER Values Art Competition And Exhibition 2025

Barnama16-05-2025

KUALA LUMPUR, May 16 (Bernama) -- Maybank Foundation, the social impact arm of Maybank Group recently launched its 8th MyTIGER Values Art Competition and Exhibition (MTVACE) 2025 at Balai Seni Maybank, honouring the creativity and advocacy of 28 young Malaysian artists who successfully expressed the power of social impact through the lens of art and design.
Aligned with Maybank's mission of humanising financial services, the initiative provided a creative avenue for students to interpret the Group's TIGER values (Teamwork, Integrity, Growth, Excellence & Efficiency and Relationship Building) into visuals through compelling and thought-provoking artworks, at the same time raising awareness on the importance of tiger conservation efforts and addressing the 12 selected United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

ITMAX new AI growth pillar a positive for company

PETALING JAYA: ITMax System Bhd 's latest artificial intelligence (AI) initiative, the 'Digital Twin' project, could generate a potential revenue of RM15mil to RM20mil per year. The 'Digital Twin' project involves the creation of a virtual 3D replica of Kuala Lumpur complete with buildings, road infrastructure and even slope analysis. This new growth pillar leverages ITMAX's data collection strengths, said Maybank Investment Bank Research (Maybank IB). The project will enable real-time simulation by authorities to enhance urban planning efficiency and is expected to be completed in December 2025, with monetisation targeted for financial year 2026 (FY26). After its meeting with ITMAX, Maybank IB came away feeling positive on the prospects of its core CCTV offering and its latest AI-enabled growth pillar. The research house maintains its FY25-FY27 earnings forecast. It retains its 'buy' rating on the stock with a target price of RM4.50. The shares closed at RM3.71 at the time of writing. The risk factors cited include the loss of subsisting contracts with the Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) to another competitor. It also includes higher-than-expected cost drag related to its expansionary initiatives, and a significant reduction in DBKL's operating budget that may impede continuity of existing contracts, as well as potential variation orders. However, ITMAX remains the research house's top Malaysian software pick for its robust growth offering and leading position as Malaysia's go-to smart city player. Having thus far secured contracts for 1,640 CCTVs across four Greater Johor Baru (GJB) districts, Maybank IB understands that Johor has adopted a single supplier policy for its smart city infra. This implies a 'when' rather than 'if' scenario for ITMAX securing CCTV contracts for the remaining 12 districts in the state. ITMAX is already in active discussions with Pengerang, Batu Pahat and Muar. The four GJB districts are also looking to increase CCTV installations ahead of a ramp-up in the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone economic activity. Maybank IB currently imputes a modest 2,000 CCTVs in Johor in FY25/FY26, but based on its sensitivity analysis, every additional 1,000 CCTV units installed in Johor could uplift ITMAX's core earnings by about 2.4% to 3.6% for FY25-FY27. Outside Johor, ITMAX'S CCTV prospects appear equally bright. DBKL has mandated for Kuala Lumpur to have 20,000 CCTVs by end-2028, implying a minimum 10,000 additional CCTVs over the next three years, which has been included in its forecasts.

Cuckoo International cuts IPO price

SINGAPORE: Household goods maker Cuckoo International has reduced its Malaysian initial public offering (IPO) price by 16.3% to RM1.08 a share from RM1.29, a stock exchange filing showed yesterday. That would reduce the size of its IPO to about RM394mil from around RM471mil. Cuckoo International in April postponed the listing by two months citing global market volatility. The IPO, initially planned for April 30, is scheduled for completion by June 24. Cuckoo International is 62.5% owned by South Korea-listed Cuckoo Homesys, its IPO prospectus showed. In its draft prospectus, the company said it intends to allocate a significant portion of its IPO proceeds to fund product purchases for the expansion of its rental business. 'The growth of our rental business is dependent on the availability of cash flows to fund our purchase of products and pay our commissions.' — Agencies

Bursa up as investors welcome trade framework

At 5pm, the FBM KLCI rose 6.89 points, or 0.45% to 1,523.84 from Tuesday's close of 1,516.95. KUALA LUMPUR: Bursa Malaysia ended higher yesterday, with investors adopting a cautiously optimistic stance following the announcement of a United States-China trade framework agreement, which includes provisions on technology trade. At 5pm, the FBM KLCI rose 6.89 points, or 0.45% to 1,523.84 from Tuesday's close of 1,516.95. The benchmark index opened 3.91 points higher at 1,520.86 yesterday morning, which was its day's low, and subsequently moved to a high of 1,530.85 in the early session. On the broader market, gainers thumped decliners 545 to 375, while 528 counters were unchanged, 921 untraded and 11 suspended. Turnover soared to 3.27 billion units worth RM2.59bil compared with yesterday's 2.72 billion units worth RM2.09bil. UOB Kay Hian Wealth Advisors Sdn Bhd head of investment research Mohd Sedek Jantan told Bernama that the development in the US-China trade negotiations marks a constructive step toward de-escalation, although it falls short of a material breakthrough. Domestically, the market found additional support from encouraging macroeconomic data, with figures released yesterday by the Statistics Department showing that the sales value of the manufacturing sector rose by 4.8% year-on-year in April 2025, reaching RM160.6bil. — Bernama
