The infrastructure and civil engineering company reported a revenue of $104.3 million for 1HFY2025, up 41.2% y-o-y.
Gross profit for the period came in 54.2% y-o-y higher at $32.1 million, resulting in gross profit margin increasing 2.6 percentage points (ppts) to 30.8% for the first half of the year.
The group’s increase in revenue was due to a 57.4% growth in revenue from the construction segment and 21.1% rise in revenue from the maintenance segment, which were partially offset by a 39.8% decrease in rental income.
The construction and maintenance segments saw a higher percentage of revenue recognised from various ongoing and newly awarded construction projects as they progressed to a more active phase. These segments represent 69.5% and 28.7% of the group’s revenue respectively.
Rental income decline was mainly due to ongoing major renovations at the property in Western Australia and the transition period following tenant departures during the last financial year. This segment accounted for 1.8% of the group’s total revenue.
