KUALA LUMPUR (Aug 12): Tambun Indah Land Bhd’s net profit rose 67% to RM28.57 million or 6.72 sen a share in the second quarter ended June 30, 2016 (2QFY16), from RM17.09 million or 4.05 sen a share a year ago, due to higher billings, take-up rates for ongoing projects, as well as a higher percentage of project completions.

Revenue also grew 74% to RM104.33 million, from RM60.01 million.

For the cumulative six months (1HFY16), net profit jumped 11% to RM52.19 million or 12.29 sen a share, from RM46.99 million or 11.14 sen a share, while revenue increased 2% to RM193.65 million, from RM190.42 million.
