UEM Edgenta Berhad (UEM Edgenta), a leading Asset Management and Infrastructure Solutions company in the region, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first half of 2024, ending 30 June 2024 (1H FY2024).
UEM Edgenta reported a revenue of RM1.44 billion for 1H FY2024, marking a 6.4% increase compared to the RM1.35 billion recorded in the same period last year. The net profit for the second quarter of 2024 (Q2 FY2024) also saw an uptick, rising by 2.1% to RM12.8 million from RM12.5 million in Q2 FY2023. These results underscore UEM Edgenta’s commitment to delivering consistent financial performance amidst a dynamic global economic landscape.
A total of RM2.0 billion in new contracts were secured in 1H FY2024, matching the total new wins in FY2023. More than 90% of these wins came from its international business in Singapore, Taiwan, and the Middle East. In Singapore, continued execution excellence has driven strong and healthy order book replenishment of RM1.2 billion in healthcare support services and integrated facility management contracts with clients beyond the healthcare sector. The operations in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia successfully secured their first hospital contract, further expanding their footprint in the region. Domestically, the Asset Consultancy division is making significant strides with more than RM67.7 million in new wins, the majority of which are Energy Efficiency (EE) projects, reaffirming its RM200 million zero-capex commitment made in September 2023. UEM Edgenta is bolstered by a solid order book of approximately RM10 billion as of 30 June 2024, providing long-term earnings visibility and positioning the company to navigate potential challenges while maintaining financial stability.
UEM Edgenta’s optimism is strengthened by the significant progress made in realising our targeted cost savings, initially set at RM100 million over five years under EoTF2025, which we are on track to achieve by the end of 2024—a year ahead of schedule. These savings have been driven by operational excellence, optimized procurement, and a leaner business structure. Building on this momentum, the Company is targeting an additional RM150 million in savings over the next five years, focusing on key cost optimisation areas, including spend prioritisation, simplifying the organisation and corporate structure, supply chain management, contract renegotiation, and streamlining operations through automation and technology. The Company is on track to achieve its Phase 1 target of a 10% improvement in addressable costs by the end of the 2024 financial year.
