Profit after tax was about US$15.15 million, or KHR 62 billion, an increase of approximately 491% year on year.\nChairman and CEO Lou Kimchhun said PAS served as an important import and export gateway, helping address challenges and support economic growth. In the first quarter of 2026, container throughput reached 373,748 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs), up 38.21%, while vessel calls totalled 495, up 13.79%.
