HS Optimus Holdings Limited provided preliminary group earnings guidance for the half year ended 30 September 2022. For the period, the group expects to report a net loss. Based on the preliminary review of the group's unaudited financial results for the period, the losses are primarily due to weakening macroeconomic factors and weak demand, resulting in lower gross profit margins from the door business; worsening inflationary pressures which has resulted in higher material cost; and the continued weakening of the Australian Dollar relative to the Singapore Dollar, resulting in unrealized foreign exchange losses.
