Koh Brothers Eco Engineering posts $5.67m H1 loss

Loss per share was at $0.20.

Koh Brothers Eco Engineering Limited reported a net loss attributable to shareholders of $5.67m for the six months ended 30 June 2026 (H1 2026), reversing a $3.04m profit in the same period last year.

Group revenue rose to $144.05m in H1 2026, up by 29% year-on-year (YoY), driven by higher billings on new and ongoing Engineering and Construction projects.

Despite this, the segment recorded a loss of $8.14m during the period. Meanwhile, the Bio-Refinery and Renewable Energy segment remained profitable, with $5.67m in earnings.

Moreover, gross profit fell 46% YoY to $7.47m, as gross margin compressed to 5.2% from 12.4% in 2025.

The company attributed this to higher material and procurement costs tied to geopolitical conflicts and supply chain disruptions.

Loss per share was $0.20, against earnings of $0.11 a year earlier.

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.
