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.

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.
