A SHARE in the loss of a joint venture along with higher administrative expenses dented results for Civmec in its fourth quarter.

The Australia-headquartered construction and engineering services provider to the oil and gas, metals and minerals, infrastructure and defence sectors said that the higher administrative costs reflected the group's investment in securing large engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) projects.
