Its revenue went up 24 per cent to RM130 million, mainly due to higher progressive sales recognised from the Hatten City Phase 2 and Harbour City projects, in accordance with the percentage of completion method.
Earnings per share was 4.35 sen, up from 1.68 sen a year ago. A dividend of 0.05 Singapore cent was declared.

As at June 30, 2017, the balance of unbilled revenue to be recognised over time from FY2018 was approximately RM662 million. This is based on the sales and purchase agreements that have been entered into with the purchasers of the sold units for the property development projects.
