KUALA LUMPUR (Nov 22): Hong Leong Industries Bhd’s (HLI) net profit rose 76% in the first quarter ended September 30, 2013 (1QFY14) from a year earlier. Profit growth came on higher revenue and lower production cost for consumer products. 

In a statement to Bursa Malaysia today, HLI said 1QFY14 net profit rose to RM36.1 million from RM20.6 million. Revenue climbed to RM567.8 million from RM556.2 million previously.

HLI said the increase in profit was due to "favourable sales mix and lower production costs for consumer products."

According to HLI's website, its businesses include semiconductor production via listed unit Malaysian Pacific Industries Bhd. HLI also manufactures ceramic tiles under the "Guocera" brand. 

HLI told Bursa Malaysia that the group has declared a tax-exempt interim dividend of 10 sen per share.

Moving forward, HLI expects performance at its consumer and industrial product segments to be satisfactory in FY14.
