DEAR VALUED SHAREHOLDERS, On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased that this past year continues to show the resilience of our business. 2025: DISCIPLINE AND MARKET SHARE FY 2025 was a year marked by challenges, with the global chemicals industry facing macroeconomic headwinds and geopolitical risks. Accordingly, Megachem’s business has focused on maintaining operational discipline and market share. STILL FORWARD LOOKING Near-term conditions may remain subdued, but our perspective on the long-term prospects is still positive. The region’s fundamentals – on-going industrial activity, a large middle class and sustained investment – remain intact. As a key market for Megachem, the region is key for our long-term growth. TOTAL SHAREHOLDERS’ RETURNS Since Megachem’s listing in 2003, we have endeavoured to deliver dividend returns to our shareholders. The total dividend of 1.0 cent for the year represents a dividend payout ratio of 34.8%. Together we are well-positioned for the journey ahead. MR YEO WEE KIONG Independent & Non-Executive Chairman In future, if and when investor interests grow for our shares, dividend and share price increase will result in greater total shareholders’ return. WORDS OF APPRECIATION The strength of Megachem lies not just in its strategy, but in its people and its partnerships. On behalf of the Board of Directors, I extend my heartfelt appreciation to our management and employees for their unwavering dedication and perseverance, and to our shareholders, customers, and partners for their enduring trust and support. Together, we are well-positioned for the journey ahead. YEO WEE KIONG Independent and Non-Executive Chairman Megachem Limited MEGACHEM LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2025 03 CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE
