Singapore, 5 April 2021 – Well-established construction, property development and property management group, KSH Holdings Limited , announced today that it has clinched a S$171.8 million design and build contract under Biopolis Phase 6 development in one-north as well as works at the adjacent Buona Vista Node of the rail corridor from HB Universal Pte.

Mr Choo Chee Onn (朱峙安), Executive Chairman and Managing Director of KSH, said, 
“Our financial results have been adversely affected amidst vast challenges brought on by the global pandemic. The net loss was largely due to a revaluation of hotel and investment properties under these conditions. We reported a loss of S$3.9 million for the first half of FY2021, and we managed to recover all the losses in the second half of FY2021. We would have reported a profit for the full FY2021, if not for the adjustments relating to the revaluation of properties.

“Our results from the construction business in FY2021 has also been adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic that caused the slowdown in work progress and increased the cost of construction. Nevertheless, we have confidence in our construction business, backed by our strong order book of S$620.0 million and competent project teams. For prudence, we have not taken in any potential qualifying claims from the cost-sharing relief under COVID-19 (Temporary Measures) Act 2020 for our existing construction projects in the FY2021 results. Such claims will be offset against cost in the future when they materialise.


Stay home and stay safe, everyone.

Full year result is out and what surprises is how the construction cost for its projects severly overran as seen by its full year segment reporting. However, the boss has been relatively generous and maintain a bi-annual 0.5 cents payout.

Still decent but the question is when can a 1 cent bi-annual dividend resume. The sales of its chinese property seems decent

hi CY09,

Boss would actually be deemed more generous if they hadn't retained the capital within the company to buy properties. In general, unless there are past or future indications of "resource conversion", else I would regard companies holding "investment properties" that don't have a chance to convert to PPE, as "red flags".

Considering that the local construction industry's heightened safety period already ended 1 year ago, the big reduction in revenue and negative GPM in 2H24 does look weird. In general, even though material/subcontracting/utility costs may have ballooned but it is after all, still a function of the amount of work you performed. So my guess is that what is "fixed" are the direct labor costs (salaries/dorm/levies) which are part of COGS. KSH boss has to maintain the fixed labor force so as to preserve their ability to bid/win contracts. After all, its boom time now and everyone has to position themselves for the upturn because it is not going to last forever.
