In the first nine months of its financial year ending April 30, 2024 (9M FY24), the group achieved unaudited revenue of RM205.3 million compared to RM209.9 million achieved in the correspond­ing period of FY23. The group’s PBT for 9M FY24 came in at RM13 million, with PATMI at RM8.4 million.

RM288.8 million as at end-April 2023, backed by strong operating cash flows and free cashflow of 16 sen per share.

During the quarter under review, the group launched Allamanda, the latest phase of double-storey terrace houses at Saujana KLIA, with a total estimated gross developmen­t value (GDV) of RM35 million. The Saujana KLIA township had strong take-up rates, with all previous phases of terrace houses and shop offices fully sold. This includes the preceding phase, Primrose which has been completed, and handed over to buyers in January 2024.

Keys at Lakeside Residences comprises 98 semi-detached houses with a total estimated GDV of RM234 million. The first release of 42 units met with strong interest. New units are expected to be rolled out concurrent­ly.

Glomac’s focus remains in the affordable and mid- market residentia­l segments.
