PETALING JAYA: Pharmaniaga Bhd recorded higher revenue and profitability for the third quarter and nine months ended Sept 30, 2026, reflecting continued progress in strengthening its profitability and financial position.

For the third quarter, profit after taxation and zakat (PAT) jumped more than threefold to RM26.9 million from RM7.5 million in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year.

This improved profitability was achieved against a modest 0.7% increase in revenue to RM1.01 billion, primarily driven by higher insulin sales during the quarter.

Meanwhile, the group’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (Ebitda) rose 0.9% year-on-year to RM33 million.
