Gamuda today posted a 5% rise in its quarterly earnings to RM215 million from last year’s RM205 million, primarily driven by robust contributions from domestic construction projects and the successful execution of quick-turnaround projects (QTP) in Vietnam.

The Group declared an interim dividend of 5 sen per share, unchanged from the same period last year.

Quarterly construction revenue was flat due to the delays in the awards of several new domestic contracts, while some Australian projects are near completion. The construction net profit rose 10% due to stronger earnings from ongoing domestic construction contracts.

Looking ahead, the Group anticipates that this year’s earnings performance will be driven mainly by newly awarded domestic construction projects, including the construction of several data centres and higher contributions from various property QTPs in Vietnam.

The Group's resilience is anchored by its construction orderbook balance of RM37 billion and unbilled property sales of RM8 billion.

Gamuda today announced that the Group has achieved a first, with year-to-date net profit climbing 10% to reach the RM1 billion mark. The regional engineering and property group also saw its revenue increase by 11% to a record-breaking RM16.4 billion.

This milestone is a result of its strong domestic construction projects, with an all-time-high construction orderbook balance of RM38 billion after recording RM25 billion job wins during the year. This unprecedented orderbook balance provides strong revenue visibility and positions the Group for sustained growth over the coming years.

Notably, domestic construction projects comprise 50% of the order book, with data centres contributing 10% of the total value, reflecting the group's focus on diversified infrastructure developments as overall construction margins improved.

Meanwhile, Gamuda Land, its property arm, reported sales of RM4.1 billion, a 19% decline due to Hanoi project approvals near the end of this financial year, with the related sales expected to be carried forward to the next financial year.

Gamuda reported a 22% increase in net profit to RM332 million for the fourth quarter ended 31 July 2025, compared with last year’s RM272 million as domestic construction earnings doubled and overseas property earnings jumped 68%.

Looking ahead, the group anticipates next year’s earnings performance will be driven by newly awarded domestic construction projects and higher contributions from various property QTPs (quick turnaround projects), especially Vietnam’s Eaton Park project.

The resilience of the Group is also underpinned by its record high unbilled property sales of RM8 billion. The Group’s gearing is at 53%, well below the self-imposed gearing limit of 70%.

Rewards shareholders with an increased dividend of 10 sen, up from 8 sen

Gamuda today announced robust quarterly earnings that rose 5% to RM247 million. This is driven by strong performance in its domestic construction division, with earnings tripling to RM104 million compared to the corresponding quarter last year, which was RM39 million.

The Board of Directors has declared a second interim dividend of 5 sen per share, bringing the year-to-date dividend to 10 sen per share, representing a 25% increase from the previous year's 8 sen (adjusted following 1:1 bonus share issuance).

The Group's domestic operations have gained momentum, with its orderbook contributing 41% of the overall RM35 billion construction orderbook, representing a substantial portion of the overall performance (in comparison to 28% last year). Quarterly construction revenue and net profit rose 4% and 40% respectively.

Meanwhile, Gamuda's data centre investments are beginning to yield positive returns, contributing meaningfully to the Group's engineering division pre-tax earnings. This development marks a significant milestone for the Group's expansion strategy, positioning it well for the growing demand for digital infrastructure.

In terms of the year-to-date (Aug 2024 - Apr 2025) result, the Group's revenue increased by 14% to RM11.5 billion in comparison to RM10 billion last year. At the same time, net profit rose 5% to RM671 million. Its property sales grew 10% to RM2.6 billion compared with RM2.3 billion sold last year, primarily driven by several quick-turnaround projects (QTPs) in Vietnam.

The Group continues to maintain a healthy balance sheet with a comfortable net gearing ratio of 45%, which is well below its self-imposed gearing limit of 70%.

Gamuda Berhad (Gamuda) has achieved an all-time high construction order book of RM36 billion in its second quarter of FY2025, ended 31 January 2025 - consistently breaking its own record for four consecutive years.

The Group's revenue and earnings are experiencing continued growth, primarily fuelled by stronger contributions from its domestic construction division. This growth is substantiated by the domestic orderbook's expansion from RM7 billion to RM14 billion over the past six months, now representing 40% of the total construction orderbook.

In a statement, Gamuda said the domestic orderbook is expected to expand next month with the imminent signing of several large domestic contracts; culminating in the growth of future margins and earnings of the construction division.

The Group's revenue increased by 32% to RM8.2 billion, whilst net profit rose 5% to RM424 million for the first half of this year.

In the first half of FY2025, Gamuda secured its highest annual new project portfolio totalling RM14.5 billion, comprising six significant project awards including three international ventures (Australia Boulder Creek Wind Farm, Australia Goulburn River Solar Farm, Taiwan Xizhi Donghu Mass Rapid Transit) and three domestic projects (Sabah Ulu Padas Hydroelectric Project, Penang LRT - Mutiara Line Phase 1 and Cyberjaya Data Centre). This demonstrates the Group's robust regional infrastructure capabilities to meet its target orderbook of RM40 billion to RM45 billion order book target by end-2025.

The Group's quarterly revenue rose to RM4 billion, up 19%, while its quarterly earnings rose to RM219 million, up 5%.

Its quarterly construction revenue and earnings rose 22% and 13% respectively. Meanwhile, for the property arm, quarterly property sales rose 56% to RM1.1 billion, compared with RM719 million in the previous comparative quarter, due to stronger sales from QTPs, especially Eaton Park in Vietnam.

Unbilled property sales of RM7.2 billion also underpin the Group's resilience. Meanwhile, it continues to maintain a healthy balance sheet with a comfortable net gearing ratio of 39%, which is well below its self-imposed gearing limit of 70%.

Gamuda announced impressive results for Q1FY24, with its core earnings rising 35% to RM195 million in the current quarter as revenue doubled on the back of higher construction from overseas projects.

In the absence of highway earnings, both of the Group's core construction and property segments demonstrate an upswing, indicating a resilient performance in contrast to the RM145 million earnings recorded in Q1FY23.

This substantial growth is attributed to a doubled revenue stream, primarily fuelled by the heightened contributions from its overseas projects.

Meanwhile, the Group's total revenue scaled new heights to RM2.8 billion from RM1.4 billion in the previous year, as overseas revenue takes centre stage, tripling to RM2.1 billion.

Looking ahead, Gamuda said it anticipates this year's performance to be driven by the continuous momentum of overseas construction activities in Australia and Taiwan, coupled with the full-year impact of the recently acquired Australian transport projects business of Downer Transports Projects (acquisition finalised on 20 June 2023).

Additionally, buoyant property sales, including contributions from newly launched quick-turnaround projects (QTP) in the property division, are poised to be key growth drivers.

The resilience of the Group is underpinned by a robust construction order book tallying RM26 billion and unbilled property sales amounting to RM6.7 billion.

On top of that, the Group maintains a healthy balance sheet with a comfortable net gearing of 25%, well below its self-imposed gearing limit of 70%.

Unique and Proven COVID-19 Management System

The Group's COVID-19 solid measures have helped the continuity of its business-critical operations. Through these efforts, we have succeeded in keeping the infectivity rate low at our construction sites (currently at <0.1%) with minimal work disruption.

The Group's rigorous "COVID-ready" ecosystem is one of the significant attributes that contributed to the Group's triple international award wins recently for its work on the MRT Putrajaya Line project:

Other key highlights

The ongoing risks to the country's economic and fiscal outlook posed by the progression of the COVID-19 pandemic and uncertainties surrounding the Delta and now Omicron variants have dampened economic activities.

Net profit declined by 30% to RM123.12 million from RM175.17 million a year earlier due to the pandemic effects. Quarterly revenue fell 38% to RM1.38 billion from RM2.22 billion in the previous year's corresponding quarter (This is based on Group revenue including share of joint venture companies' revenue).

The pace of construction and property projects was returning to pre-movement restriction level due to the Group's rigorous Covid-19 measures on all work fronts. Moving forward, the resilience of the group is underpinned by its construction order book of RM5.5 billion* and unbilled property sales totalling RM3.6 billion which will see it through the next two years.

The Group has a healthy balance sheet with a prudent gearing of 0.3 times. The Company's 60%-owned SRS Consortium Sdn Bhd has on 25 March 2021 entered into a 70:30 Project Development Joint Venture with Penang State Government for the development of Island A of the Penang South Islands.
