It posted a net profit of rm21.07 million for the financial year ended Dec 31 2014 from rm1.73 million in Fy2013 mainly due to the scalable nature of the software business. Revenue for FY2014 rose 71.59% to rm89.24 million from rm52 million.

The group will launch four Saas products in 2015, covering business accounting solutions for contracting business, standard operating procedures, marketing and contract management.
IFCA will not restrict itself to the property industry but will expand its services in the ICT, construction and engineering sectors.
For 2015, IFCA is also banking on growth from its China market.
It expects the China market to grow significantly in 2015, leveraging on its reputation and proven products. It accounted for 30% of the group’s revenue in FY2014.

Its Fy2104 recorded good results were not solely from GST software upgrade jobs, which only contributed 20% to its revenue in Fy2014. Its new software and cloud based products targeted at bigger property players like SP Setia, EcoWorld and Sunway Bhd had helped boost its profitability.
Currently (April 2015) institutional investors hold about 20% stake in the company.
As at Jan 23 2015, Yong holds a direct interest of 0.51% and an indirect stake of 42.48% in IFCA.
Going forward, IFCA has its contribution from China and it will still benefit from the migration from the Windows platform to a mobile based platform to a mobile based platform. Saas and its plan to transfer to the Main Market are the potential catalyst.
