For FY2022, revenue grew by 13% to RM140.8 million from RM124.1 million for FY2021. The higher revenue was underpinned by maiden contributions from the Istana Negara contract in 3Q 2022. Additionally, revenue from Concession Arrangements remained stable and consistent during the period. These factors contributed to the overall growth in revenue for the specified timeframe.

The Group Gross Profit ("GP") margin expansion is in line with the higher revenue in FY2022.
