Sunway City Kuala Lumpur, 25 August 2020 – Sunway Berhad today announced its second quarter financial results for the financial year ending 31 December 2020. (“2Q 2020”).

The Group recorded a lower revenue of RM556.6 million in 2Q 2020 compared to RM1,077.2 million in 2Q 2019, primarily attributable to lower contributions from all business segments due to business disruptions caused by COVID-19 pandemic and the various phases of Movement Control Order (“MCO”). Despite the challenging landscape, the Group still managed to register a profit before tax (“PBT”) of RM10.1 million for the quarter ended 30 June 2020. This was achieved on the back of cost containment measures adopted by the respective business segments coupled with lower financing costs due to the several interest rate cuts by Bank Negara since the beginning of this year.
