NeraTel posts $2.8m net loss in FY2024

This is due to weaker revenue, market headwinds, and an impairment loss on assets under construction in a foreign subsidiary.

Nera Telecommunications Ltd (NeraTel) reported a net loss of $2.8m for FY2024, down by 51% from the $5.7m net profit recorded in the previous year.

The company attributed the decline to weaker revenue, market headwinds, and an impairment loss on assets under construction in a foreign subsidiary.

Total revenue for the year also fell 30.7% to $98.2m, down from $141.7m in FY2023. The drop was largely due to economic challenges, geopolitical tensions, and reduced contributions from the Service Provider (SP) and GTU divisions.

The SP division saw revenue decline to $62.6m (from $71.m), whilst the GTU division suffered a significant drop to $16.6m (from $53.4m).

The Enterprise (ENT) division, however, showed resilience, growing 10.8% to $19.1m, mainly driven by rising demand for cybersecurity services in the banking sector across Singapore and Indonesia.

Meanwhile, the firm maintained a strong balance sheet with $14.3m in cash and fixed deposits. Gross profit margins also saw a 2.8 percentage point increase, even though total gross profit dropped to $24.4m from $31.2m in the prior year.

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.
