Revenue increased by 26.2% y-o-y to $19.0 million, due to higher revenue from the group’s operation of restaurants segment. The segment's higher revenue, in turn, increased on the back of higher revenue from its existing outlets. In addition, the higher revenue came from a low base as dining-in restrictions and additional safe-management measures affected the group’s sales in the 1HFY2021.
The higher revenue was offset by lower revenue from the food processing, distribution and procurement services segment.
Other income fell by 57.6% y-o-y to $789 million mainly due to lower payouts from the government as well as rental rebates from landlords.
There was no impairment loss on plant equipment in the 1HFY2022, compared to the $116,000 loss in the 1HFY2021.
