Vicplas International (SGX:569), a medical devices and pipes manufacturer, expects to record a consolidated loss after tax of less than SG$1.8 million for the financial year ended July 31, 2024, reversing a S$4.2 million profit the previous year, according to a Tuesday filing on the Singapore Exchange.
The loss is being attributed to challenges in its medical devices segment, including lower sales as customers adjusted post-pandemic inventory levels, and higher costs linked to its Changzhou plant expansion and the startup of a new facility in Juarez, Mexico.
Despite this, the group's adjusted EBITDA is expected to remain positive, between SG$6.5 million and SG$7.5 million, compared to SG$14.7 million last year, supported by its pipes and pipe fittings segment.
