Dato’ Kamaruzzaman Abu Kassim
Chairman
KPJ Healthcare Berhad
Notwithstanding the challenges that we had to
confront, it is with pleasure that I convey to
you that the year 2014 was a very laudable
year for KPJ. The Group recorded the highest
Net Profit since its inception 33 years ago. We
have also successfully delivered an improved
net profit margin of 5.6%, as compared to the
preceding year. Also of interest to you, I share
that the price earning of our share is 26 times
whilst the earning per share for the period is
RM0.14.
This commendable result is only made possible
through the various strategies implemented
throughout the year. We had, among others,
implemented cost management strategies so
as to mitigate the rising prices of goods. This
has enabled KPJ to successfully maximise its
shareholders value whilst still maintaining its
lead as the largest private healthcare provider
in Malaysia.
