2018

GKENT - George Kent (Malaysia) Bhd said both the company and Siemens Aktiengesellschaft of Germany and Singapore-based Siemens Pte Ltd (collectively referred to as Siemens) will now work with Alstom, Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane and PORR to prepare a joint offer to bid for the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore high speed rail (HSR) project.

It also recorded higher unrealised gain on foreign exchange of RM1.85 million on foreign currencies held. Its quarterly revenue, however, was down 29% to RM189.14 million from RM265.58 million a year ago, mainly as its construction and metering segments' contributions fell.

GKENT - Reported a 100% year-on-year increase in net profit to RM101.41mil for FY17, on the back of record contributions from its engineering and water metering divisions. The group’s total revenue for the year rose 12% to RM598.97mil compared with RM536.2mil in FY16.

GKENT - Has secured contracts amounting to RM1.1bil in FY17, enlarging its order book to RM6.2bil. This translates to a superior cover ratio of 10.4 times on FY17 construction revenue.

The sale of water meters contributes to the remainder of the revenue.

GKENT - Tendering for about RM4 billion worth of projects ranging from railways to hospitals, as the group progresses with its RM6.1 billion outstanding order book.

GKENT - Second quarter earnings ended July 31 was 23.7% stronger at RM25.37mil from the previous corresponding quarter, on the back of 18% stronger revenue of RM187.57mil.
