Risk Management And Operational Stability

The board reiterated that there are no anticipated major changes in operations, financial position, or performance. Key risks remain consistent, including those arising from interest rate, credit, liquidity, and capital exposures. The company continues to mitigate these risks through rigorous management practices and board oversight. Specific challenges such as the variability in interest rates, particularly for long-term borrowings, are closely monitored, with all reported borrowings set at variable rates as disclosed in the financial statements.

Credit And Liquidity Safeguards

Credit risk is managed through comprehensive evaluation of the creditworthiness of lessees, with individual limits dynamically adjusted based on financial health and past performance. The company’s vigilance in liquidity management is evidenced by strong bank balances and controlled exposure to receivables and loans. This disciplined approach aims to ensure ongoing operational resilience and safeguard its liquidity position against potential market shifts.

Capital Management And Dividend Policy

MC Plc remains committed to an optimal capital structure that supports its long-term stability and shareholder returns. With a gearing ratio improved from 43.95% to 40.03%—supported by a reduction in net debt and an increase in total equity—the company continues to prioritize liquidity and capital efficiency. In alignment with its cautious approach, the board has currently advised against the payment of dividends.

Outlook Amid Geopolitical Uncertainty

Looking forward, the board does not foresee any significant changes or developments in the company’s operations or financial performance, despite external pressures such as inflationary trends and geopolitical tensions, including the Russia-Ukraine conflict. While these factors inject a level of uncertainty, the management’s proactive risk management framework is designed to navigate these complexities and preserve the company’s market position.

October 21, 2026

The technology distributor ASBIS Group, headquartered in Limassol, has exceeded $1 billion in monthly sales for the first time in its history, reporting preliminary consolidated revenue of $1.05 billion in September 2026, more than three times the amount recorded a year earlier.

The figure represents a 216% increase from $332 million in September 2025, making it the highest-revenue month in the company’s history.

ASBIS reported its strongest sales growth in servers and server components, while CEO Serhei Kostevitch pointed to growing demand for artificial intelligence solutions and computing infrastructure as an opportunity for the business.

For a company operating across Europe, the Middle East and Africa, September marked a new sales milestone following several months of substantial year-on-year growth.

Kostevitch attributed the record performance to the group’s existing operations, highlighting its broad product portfolio, international market presence and strong relationships with manufacturers and trading partners.

“Most importantly, this result is the outcome of our regular operating activities,” he said.

The CEO also highlighted the company’s portfolio of projects as a reason for confidence in continued AI-related development.

However, the group’s growth was not limited to AI-related technologies. Smartphones also performed strongly in September, with Kostevitch stressing that “we are growing beyond the AI segment as well.”

Kazakhstan, the United Arab Emirates and Ukraine accounted for the largest shares of ASBIS’s September revenue, followed by Slovakia and Poland.

Growth Follows Record First Half

September’s results follow a period of strong financial performance for ASBIS.

In July, the company reported preliminary consolidated revenue of $531 million, an increase of 89% compared with the same month in 2025. August brought a further rise to $604 million, up 91% year on year.

September’s $1.05 billion figure represents a substantial increase on both months, although the company has not provided a detailed breakdown explaining the acceleration.

The results also follow a record first half of 2026, when ASBIS generated approximately $2.97 billion in consolidated revenue, up 76% year on year.

Net profit after tax reached $80.6 million, compared with $19.4 million in the same period in 2025.

The second quarter was particularly strong, with revenue reaching $1.69 billion, an increase of 78.7%, while quarterly net profit more than tripled to $44.3 million.

ASBIS has emphasised that its September revenue figures are preliminary estimates and may differ from the final reported results.
