Excluding the forex loss, the group’s earnings would have been up by 33.5% y-o-y to RMB540.3 million.
During the 4QFY2022, the group’s earnings grew by 63.1% y-o-y to RMB277.3 million.
Revenue for the FY2022 fell by 0.7% y-o-y to RMB4.07 billion as the decline in revenue for the construction services provided under BOT concession agreements more than offset the increase in revenue from the waste-to-energy (WTE) business.
Gross profit, however, grew by 10.7% y-o-y to RMB1.16 billion due to the lower cost of sales and improved gross profit margin (GPM) for the WTE segment.
