Bukit Sembawang (SGX:B61) has posted earnings of $128.6 million for the FY2026 ended March 31, 13% higher y-o-y.
Despite the higher bottom line, revenue declined 37% y-o-y to $345.6 million in FY2026. The lower revenue was attributed to a drop in revenue contribution from its property development segment.
The segment saw a revenue decline of 38% y-o-y to $331.1 million, primarily driven by absence of revenue contributions from The Atelier and LIV@MB, given that these two projects obtained TOP back in May 2024 and last March respectively.
However, the revenue decline was partially mitigated by revenue contribution from new project, Pollen Collection II, and ongoing projects such as Pollen Collection and 8@BT.
Gross profit increased 25% y-o-y to $164.6 million, mainly due to higher profit recognised from development projects such as Pollen Collection, Pollen Collection II, 8@BT and Fraser Residence Orchard, Singapore.
Meanwhile, interest income dropped 72% y-o-y to just $4.0 million, due to lower fixed deposits placed with banks and interest rates.
