FUNDAMENTALLY ROBUST

Annual Report 2022

FUNDAMENTALLY ROBUST

With our fundamentally robust businesses, the Boustead Group delivered sustained profitability in another turbulent year.

The severe negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic - extended lockdowns, massive economic disruptions and waves of variants - has been lingering

in our world for over two years and continued to be deeply felt throughout FY2022. Even with COVID-19 abating in many countries, it will take time to get to a new normal, especially when the recovery from the pandemic has been hampered by significant inflationary pressures, supply chain disruptions and major black swan events like the Russia-Ukraine War.

As Singapore's oldest continuous business organisation, we have gone through an extraordinary journey spanning almost 200 years, one in which we have witnessed two world wars, numerous economic crises and the evolution of many global sectors. Our ability to weather major storms is attributed to maintaining an agile mindset and fortitude, anchored by a business model that focuses on creating shared socio-economic value, supported by diversified businesses and strategies to remain 'in the moment' and built upon a culture, structure and balance sheet that are fundamentally robust.

TRACK RECORD

Our Energy Engineering Division has delivered:

Our Energy Engineering Division provides critical process technologies and emissions reduction solutions to the global energy sector, which are important drivers of human wellbeing, economic development and progress. Process heater systems used in gas processing and hydrogen production are part of a multi-decade transition to relatively cleaner fuels and renewables. Waste heat recovery units ("WHRUs") capture thermal energy from high temperature turbine exhaust and flue gases,

which is efficiently transferred for use by other utilities, thus reducing the overall energy demand of plants and potentially doubling the operational efficiency of gas-fired turbines.

Projects for

60%

of the world's top 20 energy corporations.

182 terawatt-hours

of total expected thermal energy recovery by WHRUs, equivalent to the amount of carbon sequestered in a forest that is almost the size of France.
