MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following “Management’s Discussion and Analysis” in conjunction with the section inclusive of our financial statements and the related notes provided elsewhere in this Form 6-K. As used in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation” section, the terms “the Group,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Agroz Inc. and Agroz Group, collectively. “Agroz Group” refers solely to Agroz Group Sdn. Bhd., a Malaysian private limited company, our operating subsidiary.
OVERVIEW
We are a vertically integrated agricultural technology company applying technology solutions, innovative business models, processes, and systems to design, build, manage, and operate indoor CEA vertical farms. We also operate CEA vertical farms which produce clean, pesticide free, fresh and nutritious rich vegetables directly to consumers and businesses. Our EduFarm at AEON Alpha Angle was also aimed to educate the public on how our vegetables are grown. Our CEA practices are a combination of various digital technologies, including IoT, data analytics, artificial learning, machine learning, automation, cloud and edge computing, and 5G communications. We use 5G communications primarily to enhance internet connectivity within our CEA practices, which is essential for real-time monitoring and control of our agricultural operations.
Our mission is to improve food safety, food security, and sustainability for society by creating a reliable, accessible food supply through our agricultural technology (“AgTech”) products and services. We believe we are revolutionizing and transforming agricultural production through our CEA technology and methods. We believe our technology enables us to grow more food in less space safely without the use of pesticides, herbicides and other dangerous chemicals, while reducing the need for storage and refrigeration. We aim to improve food security and deliver freshness by growing food locally, nearer to where it is consumed, which reduces transportation and therefore lowers the food miles generated and our carbon emissions impact, leading to more environmentally friendly outcomes for food production.
We believe there is vast market potential for the AgTech and CEA vertical farming markets globally and in the Southeast Asian region. Starting with Malaysia, we aim to match the top-grade products we have available to the markets in which they are the most highly demanded.
Principal activities
We primarily derive our revenue from:
| (i) | designing and/or constructing indoor CEA vertical farms; |
| (ii) | operating and managing indoor CEA vertical farms; |
| (iii) | selling CEA vertical farms; and |
| (iv) | selling fresh produce. |
| 1. | Designing and/or Constructing Indoor Vertical Farms |
Our goal is to create efficient, sustainable, and environmentally controlled vertical farms which maximize crop yield and crop quality and allow for precise management of temperature, humidity, light and nutrients.
We design and/or construct indoor CEA vertical farms for our clients according to their specific needs. This involves planning each CEA vertical farm’s layout, designing its infrastructure, building the farm’s structural framework, setting up equipment, and implementing the Agroz OS within the farm. The Agroz OS, at its most current stage of development, integrates certain hardware and software solutions detailed below. Through Agroz OS, we aim to improve productivity, boost yield, and improve the quality of produce generated within CEA vertical farms.
2
Agroz OS is currently comprised of digitally automated hardware systems capable of: (i) managing various environmental conditions within the CEA vertical farms and water quality and volume, (ii) providing irrigation and nutrient fertigation; (iii) providing light to crops; (iv) managing energy use; and (v) collecting data to enable management of temperature and lighting within the farms, as well as nutrient provision, irrigation and fertigation.
As of the date of this Form 6-K, we have implemented in Agroz OS the above digitally automated hardware systems. We have also integrated in Agroz OS software solutions enabling email and communication systems for farm organization. Agroz OS also includes Agroz ERP, a software system that tracks every aspect of the vertical farm’s business activities, including: (1) farm input materials (i.e., seeds, nutrients, growth media, packaging, consumables, carbon dioxide); (2) growth of produce at different stages; (3) farm personnel activity; (4) harvest inventory; (5) sales orders, invoices, and deliveries, and (6) accounting records. Agroz ERP is also accessible as a mobile application. These software solutions are supported by Microsoft Azure and Microsoft AI, which solutions are possible pursuant to being Microsoft ISV and Microsoft AI Cloud Partner under the Microsoft Publisher Agreement and Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program Agreement filed as Exhibits 10.7 and 10.8, respectively, in the Company’s Form F-1 filed with the SEC on September 16, 2025 and incorporated by reference herein.
We have integrated an AI agent system into Agroz OS, which system is supported by Microsoft AI and capable of presenting complex agricultural decisions to farm managers and farm owners and autonomously executing such decisions after human approval is received. The AI system’s agents can undertake complex multi-step autonomous actions within vertical farms and result in vertical farms which can be independently and automatically operated. Investors should be aware that such AI agent system is distinct from the Agroz Copilot; by contrast, Agroz Copilot is a GenAI application separate from Agroz OS, which enables human farmers to input queries and instructions into an application to receive recommendations for assistance with daily tasks, not a system for autonomous functioning of vertical farms. Although we have launched a pilot rollout for Agroz Copilot, this application is still under development and we do not currently have a date certain for the official launch of Agroz Copilot to the public.
Agroz OS additionally includes Intuit QuickBooks to aid in financial reporting and bookkeeping, with such accounting software stored on cloud servers and financial information protected by encryption technology and firewall.
| 2. | Operating and Managing Indoor CEA Vertical Farms |
Following the successful design and/or construction of CEA vertical farms, our clients may also receive, at their option, farm operation and management services. The services we offer in this respect include the overseeing of day-to-day CEA vertical farm operations and performing regular maintenance of our clients’ CEA vertical farm systems, using all of the intellectual property we have developed, including Agroz OS and the standard operating procedure supporting CEA vertical farm operations. We began generating revenue from the operation and management services for our clients’ CEA vertical farms in fiscal year 2024.
Currently, the CEA vertical farms we operate and manage include: (i) a 10,021 square foot indoor vertical farm in Kota Damansara and (ii) a 5,239 square foot educational vertical farm (“EduFarm”) at the AEON Mall Alpha Angle, a shopping center in Wangsa Maju, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (“AEON Alpha Angle”). The Malaysia Book of Records, a publication of record setting achievements, recognizes the vertical farm we operate and manage at AEON Alpha Angle as the largest indoor vertical farm located inside a shopping mall in Malaysia. Additionally, in June of 2024, the Malaysian government, through the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security, recognized the EduFarm for meeting Malaysian Good Agricultural Practices (“myGAP.PF”) requirements in being pesticide free. MyGAP.PF is a certification scheme recognizing farms which adopt agricultural practices with an environmentally friendly concept, safeguarding the welfare and safety of workers and do not use synthetic pesticides to produce quality, safe and edible products. This certification covers 20 types of vegetables grown in the CEA vertical farms we manage and operate, including green butterhead, red butterhead, green coral, red coral, wild rocket, green kale, and arugula, to name a few.
Through the EduFarm, we also supply fresh produce sold at AEON Alpha Angle and at certain supermarkets operated by AEON Co. (M) Berhad (“AEON”).
3
| 3. | Sale of CEA Vertical Farms |
We sell CEA vertical farms to potential buyers separate from the services that comprise the first and second revenue streams identified in the “Principal activities” subsection above. Our completed CEA vertical farms are fully operational and optimized. Each CEA vertical farm includes Agroz OS. We aim to achieve high-yield crop production and resource management through the CEA vertical farms.
| 4. | Sale of Fresh Produce |
We also generate revenue from sales of fresh produce, which produce consist of (i) produce grown in the leased CEA vertical farms we operate and (ii) produce outsourced from our clients’ CEA vertical farms and other suppliers. To date, we have successfully grown 50 different crops and are currently offering 21 varieties of crops for sale. Our key distribution avenue is the direct distribution of fresh produce to Malaysian-based wholesale distributors, and large supermarket brand retailers, such as AEON, and recently we have expanded our distribution to Village Grocer.

| Total credit loss on trade receivables | 4,085 | (342,284 | ) | (78,158 | ) | |||||||
The Group recognizes loss allowances for ECL on financial assets measured at amortized cost. For the periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Group measures the loss allowance for a financial instrument in an amount equal to the ECL which result from all possible default events over the expected life of such financial instrument (“lifetime expected credit losses”) for trade receivable or if the credit risk on such financial instrument has significant increase since initial recognition. For the 2024 Interim Period, ECL amounted to MYR4,085. ECL further decreased to (MYR342,284) ($78,158) in the 2025 Interim Period due to the decrease in trade receivables.
Loss allowances for trade receivables are always measured in an amount equal to lifetime ECLs. ECLs on these financial assets are estimated using a provision matrix based on the Group’s historical credit loss experience, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors and an assessment of both the current and forecast general economic conditions at the reporting date.
For all other financial instruments, the Group recognizes a loss allowance equal to 12-month ECLs unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk of the financial instrument since initial recognition, in which case the loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs.

Our trade receivables encompass amounts owed to us for offering controlled environment agriculture (“CEA”) vertical farm solutions and selling fresh produce. All of our trade receivables are expected to be recovered within one year. We invoice our clients on a milestone basis following our service agreement or upon completion of transactions. Our trade receivable balance decreased from MYR37,060,714 in 2024 Fiscal Year to MYR36,044,627 ($8,529,859) in the 2025 Interim Period. This decrease was mainly due to the farm solutions outstanding amount received from related party. As of June 30, 2025, more than 78% of outstanding trade receivables as of 2024 Fiscal Year have been collected.
In determining the recoverability of a trade receivable, we consider any changes in the credit quality of the trade receivables from the date credit was initially granted up to the reporting date. There was no significant change in credit quality for our trade receivable balances which were past due and partially impaired. Accordingly, management believes that no further credit provision is required.
Management closely reviews the Group’s trade receivables balances to proactively detect any known trends or uncertainties, and no trends or uncertainties have been identified which might affect the collectability of our customer receivables balances. An ECL amount to MYR743,860 was provided in the 2024 Fiscal Year and decreased to MYR401,576 ($95,032) in the 2025 Interim Period. This is because management believes there is a decrease in the risk of not being able to recover these trade receivables and thus lesser loss allowances were made in the 2025 Interim Period.

All trade and other payables classified as current are expected to be settled within one year or are repayable on demand. In the 2024 Fiscal Year, our trade payables amounted to MYR14,089,238 had decreased to MYR9,730,696 ($2,302,741) in the 2025 Interim Period, representing a decrease of MYR4,358,542. This decrease was mainly due to repayment of the cost of design services contractors, which amounted to MYR4,355,000. The cost of vegetables made up of 72% of total trade payables in 2025 Interim Period.
Other payables and accruals
Other payables and accruals consisted of accrued operating expenses and sundry payables. Other payables and accruals decreased from MYR1,832,975 in the 2024 Fiscal Year to MYR805,327 ($190,578) in the 2025 Interim Period. This decrease was mainly due to a decrease in sundry payables in 2025 Interim Period which have been settled at the end of the 2025 Interim Period. Wages payable increased from MYR200,235 in the 2024 Fiscal Year to MYR322,740 ($76,376) in the 2025 Interim Period, mainly due to the increase in monthly tax deduction payable to Inland Revenue Board and statutory contributions.

Other than purchases of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets stated under investing activities, there were no other significant capital expenditures incurred in either the 2024 Fiscal Year or the 2025 Interim Period.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
The Group currently has no off-balance sheet arrangements, including arrangements that would affect its liquidity, capital resources, market risk support, and credit risk support or other benefits.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
Credit risk
Assets that potentially subject the Group to a significant concentration of credit risk primarily consist of cash, trade and other receivables and amounts due from related parties.
Cash holdings risk
The Group maintains the position that the cash held within its portfolio are exposed to minimal credit risk. This belief stems from the fact that these assets are managed by esteemed financial institutions located within the jurisdictions of operation of both Agroz Inc. and its subsidiaries. We believe that the rigorous standards and reputations of these institutions significantly mitigate potential risks associated with our cash holdings.
12
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group does not account for any fixed rate financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss at the end of each reporting period. Therefore, interest-bearing financial instruments at fixed rates do not expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. The Group’s interest rate risk arises primarily from cash at bank at variable rates, for which the amount is immaterial. Therefore, the Group’s interest rate risk exposure was insignificant.
The Group’s risk management objective for interest rate risk is to reduce its exposure to variability of cash flows arising from changes in interest rates. Interest rates on the Group’s lease contracts and bank borrowing are fixed and thus are not sensitive to fluctuation in market interest rates.
Foreign currency risk
Our exposure to foreign currency risk arose primarily through service income or expenses denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the operations to which the currency relates. The currencies giving rise to this risk are primarily US$. As MYR converts to US$ the exchange rate becomes larger, but foreign exchange fluctuations remain stable, refer from these few years even the exchange rate will increase but its increase gradually at a stable rate.
CRITICAL JUDGEMENTS AND KEY ESTIMATES
Under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), we are required to make estimates and assumptions in presentation and preparation of the financial statements for the 2023 Fiscal Year and 2024 Fiscal Year.
We prepared our consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS, which requires us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of our assets and liabilities; (ii) the disclosure of our contingent assets and liabilities at the end of each reporting period; and (iii) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during each reporting period. We continually evaluate these judgments, estimates and assumptions based on our own historical experience, knowledge and assessment of current business and other conditions and our expectations regarding the future based on available information, which together form our basis for making judgments about matters that are not readily apparent from other sources. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, our actual results could differ from those estimates.
We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if: (1) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made, and (2) changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period or use of different estimates that we reasonably could have used in the current period, would have a material impact on our results of operations or financials condition.
When reading our consolidated financial statements, you should consider our selection of critical accounting policies, the judgment and other uncertainties affecting the application of such policies and the sensitivity of reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions. Our critical accounting policies and practices include the following: (i) expected credit loss of trade receivables; (ii) operating leases and right of use asset; (iii) redeemable convertible preference shares and (iv) revenue recognition. See Note 3 — Significant Accounting Policies to our consolidated financial statements for a disclosure of these accounting policies. We believe that provision for expected credit losses on trade receivables involve the most significant judgements in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
13
(i) Provision for expected credit losses on trade receivables
The Group estimates the loss allowances for trade receivables by assessing the ECLs in accordance IFRS 9 Financial Instruments. This requires the use of estimates and judgements due to the inherent uncertainty in estimating the expected loss rate over the life of trade receivables.
For trade receivables related to third-party retail outlet customers, the Group measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs, which is calculated using a provision matrix. Expected loss rates are based on actual loss experience over the past 2 years. These rates are adjusted to reflect differences between economic conditions during the period over which the historical data has been collected, current conditions and the Group’s view of economic conditions over the expected lives of the receivables.
For trade receivables related to third-party industrial business customers and related parties, the Group measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs, which is calculated using a behavioral scoring system taking into consideration current and historical credit worthiness, aging analysis, operating history in the relevant industry, reputation in the market and paid-in capital scale. Customers with positive behavior in all scoring areas, would be assigned a low-risk grading. Customers with positive behavior in most of the scoring areas, would be assigned a fair-risk grading. Customers with lesser positive behavior in scoring areas, would be assigned a substantial grading. The Group keeps assessing the expected credit loss of trade receivables during their expected lives.
Additionally, the Group makes specific bad debt provisions based on any specific knowledge the Group has acquired that might indicate that an account is uncollectible. The facts and circumstances of each account may require the Group to use substantial judgment in assessing its collectability. After the reporting date and up to the date of this report, there have been no significant changes in macroeconomic indicators or customer credit risk that would materially impact the assumptions used in the ECL model. Management continues to monitor forward-looking indicators, including industry-specific developments and credit performance, to assess whether adjustments are required in future reporting periods.
