KUALA LUMPUR: Vitrox Corp Bhd’s net profit for the third quarter ended Sept 30 surged 42% to RM42.21mil from RM29.71mil a year ago, driven by higher revenue.

       In a filing with Bursa Malaysia, the group said revenue for the quarter rose 36% to RM168.29mil compared with RM123.75mil a year ago.

       Vitrox said the higher revenue was driven by an increase in sales of both its machine vision system and automated board inspection products.
