Keppel's net profit falls sharply by 92% YoY to $304m in H1 2024

Excluding legacy O&M assets, net profit from continuing operations would be 7% YoY higher.

Keppel suffered a 92% year-on-year (YoY) drop in its net profit in H1 2024, falling to $304m.

Data from its latest financial statement showed that its net profit fell, consistent with a 13% YoY decrease in revenue to $3.2m and a 12% YoY reduction in operating profit to $506m.

If the effects of its legacy offshore and marine (O&M) assets, which expanded losses to $209m, were excluded, net profit from Continuing Operations would be 7% higher YoY at $513m.

Excluding legacy O&M assets, the company's earnings per share (EPS) would be 5% higher YoY at $0.282. Including the legacy O&M assets, EPS would be 33% lower YoY at $0.167.

During the period, Keppel experienced a decline in real estate contributions. Nonetheless, the stronger earnings in the Infrastructure and Connectivity segments more than offset this decline.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
