TechCreate Group Ltd. Reports First Half Fiscal Year 2025 Financial and Operational Results
SINGAPORE--( BUSINESS WIRE)--TechCreate Group Ltd. (NYSE American: TCGL) (“TechCreate” or the “Company”), a technology consultancy and advanced software solutions provider specializing in payment solutions, cybersecurity, and digital services, announced its financial and operational results for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Recent Operational Highlights
First Half 2025 Financial Results
Total Revenues increased 10.4% to S$1.9 million (US $1.5 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to S$1.8 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to an increase in Provision of Professional Services stemming from a new Real-Time Engine Project in Singapore and Real-Time Engine enhancement by existing Brunei Customer, an increase in Sale of Hardware Solutions as the Company’s Cambodian team successfully started the QR Soundbox Terminal Business Line, and an increase in Provision of Hosting and Supporting Service, offset by a decrease in Sale of Software Licenses and Maintenance Licenses.
Cost of Revenue decreased 22.7% to S$0.6 million (US $0.4 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to S$0.7 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in sales of license maintenance for third party software.
Gross Profit Margins increased to 70.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to 57.8% in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to an increase in revenue from provision of professional fees, and a decrease in sales of software licenses and maintenance licenses which lowers external vendor costs.
Total Operating Expenses increased 2.2% to S$1.3 million (US $1.0 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to S$1.3 million in the same period last year. The slight increase was primarily due to an increase in general and administrative expenses and selling and distribution expenses offset by a decrease in research and development expenses.
Net Loss was approximately S$20,000 (US $16,000) for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to a loss of S$0.4 million in the same period last year, primarily due to the increase in gross profit and gross profit margin.
As of June 30, 2025, cash and cash equivalents were approximately S$1.3 million (US $1.0 million).
Management Commentary
“I am pleased to announce our first half fiscal 2025 results, highlighted by our growth seen in the provision of professional services revenue,” said TechCreate CEO Heng Hai Lim. “During this period, we were awarded a handful of notable deals with valued customers, including a new Real-Time Engine project in Singapore, a Real-Time Engine enhancement by an existing Brunei customer, and a new contract to provide QR Terminal to a Cambodia bank. We also continued to lower our focus on the sale of software and maintenance licenses, which are lower margin in nature. The progress made towards our bottom-line results was encouraging to see, and we look forward to continuing to pursue professional services work with new and existing customers as we grow our global presence.”
