DESTINI Annual Report 2025

Sustainability and good governance are not only ethical imperatives but also strategic levers that prepare Destini to meet the evolving expectations of investors, regulators, and communities in a changing global environment. Outlook: Staying Resilient, Unified & Focused As we move into FY2026, Destini enters a new phase of growth with renewed confidence and strategic clarity. Having built a resilient and diversified foundation, the Group is well-positioned to capitalise on emerging opportunities while maintaining financial prudence and operational excellence. Our focus will remain on ensuring the timely execution of contracts to secure predictable and recurring revenue streams, continuing our cost optimisation and financial discipline initiatives to strengthen margins and cash flow, and capitalising on renewable energy opportunities in support of Malaysia’s energy transition agenda. In parallel, the Group will pursue selective investments and divestments to unlock long-term shareholder value and enhance portfolio resilience. We are optimistic about achieving double-digit earnings growth in FY2026 and beyond, driven by our expanded rail MRO capabilities. This optimism is guided by the Government’s plan to increase the rail network utilisation from current 30% to 80% by the year 2030. Destini is no longer merely a turnaround story, it is a scalable growth platform offering compelling value. We remain committed to delivering transparent communication to our stakeholders as we drive forward on our strategic growth trajectory. CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT PERFORMANCE Appreciation The Board wishes to record its sincere appreciation to all shareholders for their unwavering support and confidence during Destini’s turnaround journey. We also express our gratitude to our customers, business partners, financiers, and regulators for their trust and continued collaboration. To our employees, your commitment, professionalism, and resilience have been the cornerstone of Destini’s recovery and progress. Your loyalty, sacrifices, and steadfast support for the Board and Management in navigating the Group through challenging market conditions have been instrumental to our turnaround success and the achievement of our corporate mission. Finally, I wish to thank my fellow Directors and the Management team for their strong leadership and dedication in steering Destini towards a sustainable and profitable future. As we chart our course forward, Destini stands stronger than ever driven by Resilience, United in purpose, and Focused on the future. Thank you.
