The group saw revenue for the full year growing 17% y-o-y to $526.6 million, but revenue for 2HFY2024 declined 8% y-o-y to $286.0 million.
The group says that key factors driving the turnaround included resuming construction work post-Covid-19 pandemic, and implementing effective cost management measures.
For the 2HFY2024, the group’s revenue decreased due to a decline in revenue from the construction and engineering solutions segment. This was caused by the completion of certain existing projects and the lower revenue recognition for the initial phase of new projects secured in 2HFY2024.
The group’s operating loss in 2HFY2024 of $0.1 million compared to a profit the year before was due to profits generated from the engineering solutions and the property development segments, partially offset by an operating loss in the construction segment.
