The latest announcement is out from Riverstone Holdings ( (SG:AP4) ).
Riverstone Holdings reported a weak first quarter of 2026 as currency movements and macroeconomic headwinds dragged on performance despite steady sales volumes in both cleanroom and healthcare glove segments. Revenue fell 15.1% year on year to RM214.3 million, with net profit attributable to shareholders dropping 27.1% to RM41.1 million, as the stronger Malaysian ringgit against the U.S. dollar compressed reported earnings and margins.
Despite the earnings decline, the group strengthened its balance sheet, lifting cash and cash equivalents to RM700.2 million from RM630.4 million through continued positive operating cash flow. Management highlighted resilient demand, noting that cleanroom gloves are benefiting from investment in AI infrastructure and data centres, while healthcare customers are building inventory amid supply chain risks, leaving Riverstone cautiously optimistic even as it navigates raw material disruptions and geopolitical uncertainty.
The most recent analyst rating on (SG:AP4) stock is a Buy with a S$0.93 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Riverstone Holdings stock, see the SG:AP4 Stock Forecast page.
