CUCKOO Malaysia Declares Maiden Dividend of 1.84 Sen Per Share, Exceeds Policy Target

 

CUCKOO International (MAL) Berhad (“CUCKOO Malaysia” or the “Company”, KLSE:5336), a Healthy Home Creator, today announced its maiden dividend since its successful listing. The Board of Directors has declared a final single-tier dividend of 1.84 sen per ordinary share in respect of the financial year ended 31 December 2025 (“FYE2025”).

The total dividend payout of RM26,363,520 represents approximately 25.1% of the Company’s Profit After Tax (“PAT”) of RM105,212,000 for FYE2025. The maiden distribution surpasses the Company’s dividend policy of at least 20%, signaling a strong commitment to deliver sustainable shareholder returns while balancing its funding requirements to support ongoing operations and future growth initiatives.

The dividend will be payable on 15 May 2026 to shareholders whose names appear in the Record of Depositors as at 27 April 2026.

Mr. Hoe Kian Choon (KC Hoe), CUCKOO Malaysia’s Non-Independent Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer said, “Our focus for FYE2025 has been on the quality of our earnings and the resilience of our cash flow. The strength of our RM105.2 million profit has allowed the Board to propose a distribution that goes beyond our stated dividend policy, returning RM26.4 million to our shareholders. The dividend reflects our commitment to delivering returns to shareholders while maintaining discipline in capital allocation. As we build for the future, we remain focused on balancing shareholder distributions with reinvestment priorities that support our long-term growth as a service-led, rental-based healthy home solutions platform. This approach ensures we deliver tangible value to our shareholders while preserving the agility and financial strength needed to drive long-term value creation and future growth.”

CUCKOO Malaysia’s dividend policy targets a payout ratio of at least 20% of net profit attributable to shareholders for each financial year on a consolidated basis, after taking into account working capital requirements, maintenance capital and committed capital needs, and subject to applicable legal and contractual considerations.
