PETALING JAYA: MGB Bhd, under LBS Bina Group Bhd, has successfully completed its topping out for Idaman Sari, one of its six Rumah Idaman MBI projects under the same initiative. This milestone follows the recent successful handover of keys for Idaman Melur, which was held on July 3. Strategically located in Puchong, Idaman Sari comprises 513 residential units spread across 2.45ha of land, and is developed to support a sustainable and comfortable lifestyle for urban families. Each unit has a built-up area of at least 1,000 sq ft and comes with a layout of featuring three bedrooms and two bathrooms, two designated parking lots and modern home essentials including a television with cabinet, refrigerator, kitchen cabinet, three air conditioners, water heaters in both bathrooms and wardrobes in every bedroom and excellent access to amenities nearby. Prices for each unit of Rumah Idaman start from RM 250,000 onwards. Idaman Sari will be the fourth Rumah Idaman to complete its topping out after Idaman BSP, Idaman Melur as well as Idaman Cahaya 1 and 2 projects respectively. It is another step forward for MGB in supporting the Selangor state government's effort under the Rumah Idaman initiative to deliver up to 30,000 high-quality, affordable housing units across Selangor for its residents. To date, the success and progress of MGB delivering on its Rumah Idaman projects remains steady, starting with the handover of keys for Idaman BSP in August 2024 and the recent successful handover of keys for Idaman Melur, which was held last month. In line with MGB's mission to push boundaries and surpass expectation through quality, reliability and innovation, Idaman Sari is built using MGB's Industrialised Building System (IBS) precast technology, a construction method that uses precast concrete panels manufactured under strict quality control and consistency that has been proven to positively impact project timelines by reducing construction time by up to 33%. MGB Bhd group executive chairman Tan Sri Ir. Dr. Lim Hock San said, 'The topping out of Idaman Sari is MGB's statement on the progress we have made in providing well-built, affordable homes to Malaysians, especially those residing in Selangor. 'MGB continues to play a role in addressing housing affordability by delivering fully equipped, thoughtfully located homes to first-time homeowners on time and with quality that endures.'

MR DIY net profit rises to RM158.58mil in 2Q
KUALA LUMPUR: MR DIY Group (M) Bhd's net profit for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025 (2QFY2025) rose to RM158.58 million from RM155.21 million in the same quarter a year ago. Revenue for the quarter under review was higher by 1.2 per cent at RM1.21 billion versus RM1.2 billion. The group attributed the better performance to the contributions from new stores. "This growth came off a high base in 2QFY2024, which had benefited from the Hari Raya festive season. The group opened 31 new stores during the quarter, bringing the total to 1,502 as at 1HFY2025 -- an increase of 12.1 per cent year-on-year (y-o-y)," said the home improvement retailer in a Bursa Malaysia filing today. Total transactions rose 5.0 per cent y-o-y to 48.5 million, partially offset by a 3.3 per cent decline in average basket size, mainly due to fewer items per transaction. On the outlook, MR DIY said the group does not foresee the ongoing market volatility stemming from geopolitical tensions, tariff adjustments, and changes to domestic policies, including the revised Sales and Service Tax effective July 2025 and the two per cent Employees Provident Fund contribution for foreign workers to have a material impact on its business operations. "Looking ahead, the group will continue to expand its retail footprint by strategically launching new stores across its core and sub-brands in 2025. These efforts aim to reinforce the group's market leadership and its position as the value retailer of choice for Malaysians," it said. In a statement, MR DIY announced an interim single-tier dividend of 1.5 sen per ordinary share totalling RM142.1 million in respect of the financial year ending Dec 31, 2025, to be paid on Sep 8, 2025. This brings the total dividend payout for the first half of the financial year 2025 (1HFY2025) to RM274.7 million. MR DIY's chief executive officer Adrian Ong said the retailer has steadily increased its dividend payout over the years to deliver strong cash returns to shareholders. "Our consistent track record since our listing in 2020 reflects this commitment. Backed by robust net operating cash flows and solid financial performance, we have exceeded our 50 per cent to 65 per cent target payout while continuing to invest in growth," he added.
