Lum Chang Creations' net profit balloons 104% to $11m in H1 2026

Revenue and profit surge as the company posts H1 gains.

Lum Chang Creations Limited (LCC) reported a 104% jump in net profit to $11.0m for the first half of 2026, up from $5.4m a year ago, with earnings per share rising to 3.52 cents from 1.92 cents.

Revenue increased 31% to $53.5m, which it attributed to the increased work progress seen across the Group's ongoing projects. 

The company also reported its gross profit surging 108% to $17.9m, with its gross profit margin notable expanding to 33.5% from 21.1%. This was largely driven by its efficient cost control, resource use, and economies of scale.

Administrative expenses rose to $4.4m due to staff and professional fees linked to the July 2025 Catalist listing. Total assets grew to $80.0m from $67.2m.

LCC declared an interim dividend of 2.5 cents per share, up 13.6%, payable 9 March 2026.

The order book reached $132m, including the $31.9m redevelopment of the Registries of Civil and Muslim Marriages Building and the $31.5m Orchard Road Presbyterian Church project.

Cash and equivalents stood at $46.7m, supported by operations and IPO proceeds.

The company joined the MSCI Global Micro Cap – Singapore Index effective 27 February 2026 and invested $245,000 (RM750,000) in its Malaysian subsidiary to pursue interior fit-out tenders.

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.
