SCGD Posts Strong Core Profit, H1 EBITDA Hits 1.57 Billion Baht
SCGD posted H1 2026 adjusted EBITDA of 1.57 billion baht despite one-time restructuring costs, with strong performance driven by Vietnam growth and cost management, while declaring an interim dividend of 0.155 baht per share.
SCGD reported strong operational results for Q2 and the first half of 2026, accelerating business transformation and creating new business opportunities while paying an interim dividend of 0.155 baht per share. CEO Nampol Malichai disclosed that Q2 2026 recorded a loss of 282 million baht, down from a 227% decline year-on-year, while the six-month period showed a loss of 35 million baht or 108% decline. Excluding non-recurring expenses—mainly asset impairments and restructuring costs from plant consolidation in Thailand—overall performance for Q2 and H1 2026 was strong.
Q2 results included adjusted EBITDA of 805 million baht and adjusted profit attributable to shareholders of 268 million baht, while H1 achieved adjusted EBITDA of 1,566 million baht and adjusted shareholder profit of 500 million baht. The non-recurring expenses were largely one-time and non-cash items. Improved performance stemmed from growth in foreign revenue, particularly Vietnam, effective cost management to offset energy price volatility, and disciplined financial management, allowing the company to maintain profitability levels.
The company plans to accelerate growth through business expansion, regional network strengthening, and strategic partnerships for long-term development. The board approved an interim dividend of 0.155 baht per share totaling 256 million baht (60% payout ratio of adjusted net profit) payable on August 19, 2026, with a record date of August 5, 2026 and ex-dividend date of August 4, 2026.
