Bukit Sembawang net profit down 28% to $53.4m H1 FY21/22

This is despite its decrease in operating costs for the same period.

Bukit Sembawang revealed a decrease in its net profit by 28% year-on-year to $53.4m in the first half of the financial year ended 30 September.

Although its operating expenses were down by $2.2m to $2.8m, due to lower maintenance charges and property tax from lesser unsold units of completed properties, its gross profit still recorded a 29% decrease to $70.3m due to lower profit raised on development projects.

Profits, meanwhile, were recognised for 8 St Thomas, Luxus Hills (Signature Collection), and Luxus Hills (Contemporary Collection), Nim Collection Phases 1 and 2 and Fraser Residence Orchard, Singapore.

Overall, the total assets of the group decreased by 7.9% to $1.8b, following the decrease in development properties due to larger costs and a decrease in contract assets due to the transfer of contact assets to trade receivables. Another factor was due to collections from 8 St Thomas and Luxus Hills offset against repayment of loan relating to the Atellier.

A net cash outflow of $25.4m for 1H FY2021/22 was also recorded. This put net cash generated amounting to $149.5m due to working capital movements. Net cash used, meanwhile, hit $175.8m due to a dividend payment of $85.4m and full repayment of borrowings related to the Atelier.

A cash equivalent of $702.6m as of 30 September 30 was observed, a decrease when compared to the $474.6m from the same period last year.

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.
