PROPERTY and retail group Second Chance Properties (SCP) posted a 15 per cent year-on-year increase in net profit to $3.85 million for the first quarter ended Nov 30, 2013.
The improved bottom line came on the back of a strong showing in its securities business, which helped offset lower earnings in the apparel and gold business segments.
Revenue dipped to $9.2 million from $9.4 million a year ago.
