Business
Multi-Chem Limited is a Singapore-based investment holding company engaged in the distribution of information technology products and provision of printed circuit board services. Incorporated in 1985 and headquartered at 18 Boon Lay Way, Tradehub 21, Singapore 609966, the company operates through two main segments: the IT Business, which distributes hardware and software for internet and network products including cybersecurity and network performance solutions, along with related installation, technical support, maintenance services, software consultancy, implementation, IT training courses, IT security products, software licenses, and professional management services; and the PCB Business, which provides drilling, routing and other value-added services to PCB fabricators, distributes specialty chemicals, PCB-related materials and equipment such as entry and back-up materials for drilling, non-woven brushes, and leases machines to PCB manufacturers. It serves customers in Singapore, Greater China, Australia, India, Vietnam and other international markets, targeting PCB fabricators, IT resellers and end-users in electronics manufacturing and technology sectors. In recent developments, Multi-Chem Limited maintains strong insider ownership at approximately 82%, with no insider selling reported in the past three months, underscoring alignment between management and shareholders; the company announced a final dividend for FY2024 in early 2025, reflecting sustained profitability amid consistent double-digit EPS growth over the past three years driven by operational efficiency in its IT and PCB segments; and it continues to focus on sales expansion through relentless customer acquisition and vendor partnerships with leading principals in cybersecurity and networking, positioning for growth in high-margin PCB chemicals and advanced electronics demand.
