Despite a 6% decline in revenue, Phu Bai Fiber Joint Stock Company (UPCoM: SPB) reported its highest-ever quarterly profit in Q3/2025.

SPB’s Quarterly Business Results

In Q3/2025, SPB recorded a net revenue of nearly VND 287 billion, a 6% decrease compared to the same period last year. However, its net profit reached a historic high of nearly VND 9 billion, surging by 795%. The gross profit margin significantly improved to over 12%, up from 8.5% in the same period of 2024, thanks to a faster reduction in production costs than revenue.

According to the company, this improvement stems from the decline in international cotton prices and SPB’s proactive optimization of consumption norms, spinning process innovations, and reduced production waste. These measures substantially lowered the average production cost per unit, expanding profit margins despite a slight revenue decline.

Nine-Month Accumulated Profit Surpasses Entire Previous Year

In the first nine months of 2025, SPB’s revenue decreased by 12% to VND 822.5 billion, but net profit soared by 77% year-on-year, reaching nearly VND 18 billion. This figure has already surpassed the full-year 2024 profit of VND 15 billion and marks a significant turnaround from the record loss of VND 40 billion in 2023.

Thanks to these results, SPB officially eliminated all accumulated losses as of September 30, 2025, with retained earnings at the end of the period exceeding VND 735 million. The company achieved 71% of its revenue target and 67% of its profit goal for 2025.
