Jumbo Group net profit hit by 8.8% YoY rise in expenses

Net profit declined to $13.7m in FY2024.

Jumbo Group's net profit fell by 6.5% YoY to $13.7m in FY 2024 despite recording a record revenue of $190.4m.

The seafood restaurant group attributed the decline to higher operating expenses, which rose 8.8% YoY to $112.7m.

Higher employee benefits from increased headcount, salary adjustments, and bonuses drove the rise, alongside operating costs for cleaning, maintenance, delivery commissions, and marketing.

FY2024 also saw impairment losses for property, right-of-use assets, and goodwill due to underperforming outlets.

JUMBO’s board has recommended a final tax-exempt dividend of $0.005 per ordinary share, contingent on shareholder approval at the upcoming AGM.

If endorsed, FY2024 dividends will total $0.010 per share.

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.
