VICOM reports flat growth amidst intense competition in non-vehicle testing business

The company’s net profit attributable to shareholders increased by 1.3%.

VICOM Ltd reported a flat revenue growth of 0.8% citing strong competition in its non-vehicle testing business, according to its half-year results.

"VICOM has achieved a steady performance for the first half of 2024. For the vehicle testing business, we continue to be focused on the new "On-Board Unit" installation project. For the non-vehicle testing business, we are keeping a close watch on costs amid intense competition, market volatility, and supply chain challenges that are exerting pressure on margins," Sim Wing Yew, CEO of VICOM said.

Operating profit grew 1.6%, reaching $16.8m in H1 whilst net profit attributable to shareholders increased by $0.2m or 1.3% to $14.1m. EBITDA grew by 3.8%.

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.
