PEC back in the black in Q4, with S$8.2m in net profit
PEC Ltd's fourth quarter net profit was S$8.2 million - a reversal from a net loss of S$7.8 million in the previous year.
This was thanks to "an increase in variation orders from completed projects", said the specialist engineering group on Monday.
But for the three months ended June 30, revenue dropped 10 per cent to S$142.7 million from the previous year.
Q4 earnings per share came in at 3.2 Singapore cents, a reversal from a loss per share of 3.1 Singapore cents in the previous year.
