HomePro Posts 1.32 Billion Baht Q3 Profit on Online Growth

Managing Director Viraphan Angsumalee disclosed that in the third quarter of 2026, the company recorded total revenue of 16,772.55 million baht, a 0.34% increase from the same period last year, and net profit of 1,321.43 million baht, up 17.87 million baht or 1.37%. Key supporting factors included more efficient product portfolio management, a higher share of high-margin products, and appropriate management of selling prices and product costs. This pushed gross profit from sales and services up 3.15% to 4,315.55 million baht, with the gross margin improving from 26.78% a year earlier to 27.44% this quarter.

"The third-quarter results reflect HomePro's potential in business management and its ability to maintain profitability even as the overall economy and purchasing power recover gradually. The company emphasizes quality growth by enhancing operational efficiency, managing costs carefully, and developing products and services that meet customer needs to build long-term business resilience," Viraphan said.

On performance drivers, the company focused on product mix strategy by increasing the weight of high-margin items and pushing private-brand products, which help elevate gross margins, alongside efficient cost and price management.

Additionally, financial expenses fell 7.44% year-on-year to 168.40 million baht, thanks to capital structure management and the refinancing of debentures at lower interest rates, further supporting profitability.

At the same time, the company continues to develop sales and service channels under an omnichannel strategy to seamlessly connect in-store and online shopping experiences via website, app, and marketplace platforms, while adding delivery convenience through both Express Delivery and Next Day Delivery services. Partnerships with quick-commerce players also support changing consumer behavior, driving continuous growth in online sales. Meanwhile, revenue from the Chang HomePro artisan and home improvement service business expanded compared to the same period last year, reflecting opportunities to cross-sell from product sales into home-related services.

On business expansion, the company remains focused on improving branch network efficiency and customer reach. In Q3 2026, the Mega Home Menburi branch was converted into a Hybrid Store to enhance service potential and broaden the customer base, covering both general consumers and those seeking construction materials and home-related products. As of the end of Q3 2026, the company operates a total of 134 branches: 87 HomePro, 4 HomePro S, 20 Mega Home, 16 Hybrid Stores, and 7 HomePro branches in Malaysia — a network structure that supports long-term growth and increased customer access.

Furthermore, the company continues to stimulate sales through ongoing joint marketing activities with partners, such as the HomePro SUPER EXPO and the Do campaign.
