FPI's Saudi hub and strong profit drive growth

  • Saudi factory nears completion, $30M Ceer deal secured FPI is building a factory in Saudi Arabia, set to open around November-December 2026. It already has a $30 million (about 1 billion baht) parts order from Saudi carmaker Ceer, with revenue spread over 5-6 years. Making parts locally cuts shipping costs by over 30% and reduces reliance on global shipping routes.

    This is the core new growth driver: a new production base and a large secured order that should lift future revenue.

  • Q2 profit jumps 70%, interim dividend paid FPI's second-quarter net profit rose 70% to 108.7 million baht on revenue of 759.7 million baht, helped by OEM sales in Thailand and exports to South America and Africa. It paid an interim dividend of 0.04 baht per share. First-half profit rose 22.9% to 173.2 million baht.

    Strong earnings and a cash payout show the business is performing well, supporting the share price.

  • H2 outlook stronger, Saudi hub to serve MENA and Europe FPI expects second-half 2026 results to beat the first half, helped by more mould investment and overseas expansion. Its Saudi plant will become a production and distribution hub for the Middle East and North Africa, and a stepping stone into Europe. It is adding European carmakers like Alfa Romeo, Fiat and Peugeot to its customer base.

    Management guidance points to accelerating growth and a wider customer base, which supports future earnings.

  • FPI joins launch of Ceer's first Saudi EVs FPI took part in the launch of EXOBOT, the first two electric vehicle models from Saudi carmaker Ceer, where FPI is a strategic partner making several plastic component lines. Ceer plans seven models in five years, giving FPI a growing stream of parts orders as those cars roll out.

    This confirms FPI's role in Ceer's EV programme, a new demand source that can grow over time.

Bethel's buybacks, bonus shares, and record first-half profit lift the stock

  • Shareholder overhang removed Chery Technology ended its plan to sell up to 3% of Bethel without selling a single share. That removes a big potential seller, so less supply hangs over the stock and investors can focus on the business.

    Removes a known negative overhang, directly supporting the share price.

  • Company buyback and bank funding Bethel will buy back 100–200 million yuan of its own stock for employee incentives, backed by a bank loan covering up to 90% of the cost. Buybacks shrink the shares outstanding and signal management thinks the stock is cheap.

    A concrete capital return that supports the stock and shows confidence.

  • Record first-half profit and tech first First-half net profit rose 22.8% to 641 million yuan, with second-quarter profit up 48%. Bethel became the world's first to mass-produce fully dry electronic mechanical brakes, a technology edge that can win more business.

    Strong earnings and a world-first technology breakthrough are core reasons the stock is moving.

  • Bonus shares and buyback progress Bethel will give 4.2 bonus shares for every 10 held, making the stock more affordable for small investors. It has already bought back 3.71 million shares for 100 million yuan, showing the plan is being carried out.

    Bonus shares and actual buyback execution are fresh capital events that keep supporting the price.
