- When compared YoY, there was a considerable turnaround from USD 4.9m net loss in 1Q 2023 to USD 0.5 net profit in 1Q 2024 despite the low season. This mainly came from more subsea IRM projects for short-termchartered-in vessels and diving works for non-vessel and more T&I projects in Gulf of Thailand.
- The net profit dropped QoQ from USD 4.4m in 4Q 2023 to USD 0.5m in 1Q 2024 because of:
- Dry docking costs from "Mermaid Endurer" that had finished in Feb 2024 and "Resiliant" that has been dry
docking throughout the period
- Share loss from M3JV caused by dry docking of "Millennium3" compared to share profit recognized in the previous quarter
- Seasonal business cycle
- A decrease in holding sector both YoY and QoQ came from higher financial costs to the parent company.
