Profitability also saw significant gains. Net profit for the quarter reached Baht 74.63 million, marking a 27% increase compared to Baht 58.91 million reported in 1Q24. The net profit margin improved year-on-year by 5% to 33%. Operating profit (EBITDA) demonstrated strong growth as well, increasing by 26% year-on-year to Baht 101.82 million, with the EBITDA margin rising 12% to 50%.

Key business developments during the quarter included the establishment of MEDEZE Hair Renaissance, a new subsidiary focused on hair follicle cell services, which contributed revenue in its first quarter of operation.
