BRC Asia net profit up 9% to $42.1m in H1 2025

Revenue for the period fell 6%.

BRC Asia posted a 9% increase in net profit to $42.1m for the six months ended 31 March 2025, driven by lower operating costs and stronger other income.

The group's revenue for the period fell 6% to $715.6m due to weaker steel prices and project bottlenecks in the construction sector, including delays in engineering services.

Gross profit also fell 10% to $67.4m, with the gross margin slipping to 9.4% from 9.9% due to a $7.7m provision for onerous contracts. Operating expenses decreased by 16% to $23.8m, helped by lower finance costs and reduced other operating expenses.

BRC has proposed an interim dividend of $0.06%, representing a 39% payout ratio and a 1.9% yield.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
