The decrease in the results is mainly due to additional expenses incurred for the development of new businesses as well as a number of intricate fabrication projects in the Middle East region and India that have resulted in a longer than expected contract execution.<\/p>\n<p>The Middle East segment continues to dominate the Group\u2019s revenue by contributing 63.5% of the total revenue from its operations in UAE, Qatar and Saudi Arabia whilst the Group\u2019s India and Malaysia operations contributed 8.9% and 27.6% respectively, to the Group\u2019s revenue.<\/p>\n<p>Tan Sri A K Nathan, Executive Chairman and Group Managing Director of the Group said, \u201cThe financial performance of the Group for the second quarter of 2014 in terms of profit has not met our expectations. However, we are pleased to note that our projects in Malaysia have been progressing as scheduled, hence, increasing its share of the Group\u2019s revenue and profit contribution. Eversendai\u2019s foray into the oil &amp; gas offshore and marine sectors is part of our prioritised key initiatives to drive long- term growth. It is off to a positive start after we secured the construction of 2 units of liftboats at a combined value of RM588 million back in May 2014. This is only the beginning as we look forward to securing more contracts in the liftboat, process module and petrochemical plant sectors\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Tan Sri A K Nathan concluded, \u201cEversendai has a strategic long-term business plan to deliver future growth and enhance shareholders value. Through our vast experience in structural steel works, both, domestically and overseas, we have continued to demonstrate that we have the resources and technology in place to meet the increasing client demand in this industry. Eversendai will continue to evolve in our current and targeted geographical markets, as seen with us recently securing the RM113 million contract for the structural steel upgrading works for the Khalifa Olympic Stadium, and we anticipate winning more projects in time to come\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kuala Lumpur, 28 August 2014\u00a0\u2013Eversendai Corporation Berhad (\u201cEversendai\u201d), a provider of specialist engineering and construction services, reported their second quarter financial results for 2014.
