Westports Records RM1.7 Billion In Revenue And RM641 Million In Net Profit
Westports Holdings Bhd has reported a revenue of RM1.67 billion for its third quarter ended Sept 30, 2024 (3Q24), and a net profit of RM641 million for the first nine months of 2024.
西港控股有限公司報告稱,截至2024年9月30日的第三季度(24年第三季度)的收入爲16.7令吉,2024年前九個月的淨利潤爲64100萬令吉。
During the period under review, Westports handled a higher container volume of 8.11 million twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) and the intra-Asia regional trade underpinned Westports' container volume growth as this trade lane accounted for 66% of the container handled.
在本報告所述期間,Westports處理了更高的集裝箱容量,達到811萬個二十英尺當量單位(TEU),亞洲區內貿易支撐了Westports的集裝箱量的增長,因爲該貿易航線佔集裝箱吞吐量的66%。
In the conventional segment, the company handled bulk cargoes amounting to 9.02 million metric tonnes, which supports the domestic economic activities as the greater throughput was for project cargoes, steel products, soybeans, maise, clinker/slag and fertiliser.
在常規領域,該公司處理的散裝貨物總量爲902萬公噸,這爲國內經濟活動提供了支持,因爲更高的吞吐量來自項目貨物、鋼鐵產品、大豆、玉米、熟料/爐渣和化肥。
The company's almost 5,600 workforce is its most significant cost item, as operational workforce costs increased to RM217 million and this cost is expected to increased further when the company upgrades the benefits for its staff once an upward revision in minimum salary is implemented, although the company has been paying above the minimum wage.
該公司將近5,600名員工是其最重要的成本項目,因爲運營勞動力成本增加到21700萬令吉,儘管該公司支付的工資一直高於最低工資,但一旦實施最低工資上調,公司將提高員工福利,預計這一成本將進一步增加。
Meanwhile, although fuel is the third-largest operational cost component for the company, it did not have any financial impact on the company as Westports uses unsubsidised diesel for its terminal trucks and container yard cranes and it purchases the fuel in US dollars based on prices published by Platts.
同時,儘管燃料是該公司的第三大運營成本組成部分,但它並未對公司產生任何財務影響,因爲Westports在其碼頭卡車和集裝箱堆場起重機上使用無補貼柴油,並根據Platts公佈的價格以美元購買燃料。
However, the company's total borrowings in 3Q24 have increased to RM1.08 billion compared to the previous period as its wholly owned subsidiary had a recent drawdown of RM355 million to facilitate the purchase of Marina Land where the latter is to support the company's Westports 2 Container Terminal Expansion.
但是,該公司在24年第三季度的借款總額與前一時期相比已增加至10.8令吉,原因是其全資子公司最近提取了35500萬令吉,以促進收購濱海置地,後者將支持該公司的Westports 2集裝箱碼頭擴建。
"Two pieces of land, with total and related costs of more than RM600 million, will be transferred to the Port Klang Authority at no cost to the regulator, as agreed under the concession agreement with the government," Westports said, adding that the company has commenced the Westports 2 Container Terminal Expansion from CT10 to CT17, with a projected initial development total cost of RM12.6 billion.
Westports說:「根據與政府簽訂的特許權協議,總成本和相關成本超過60000萬令吉的兩塊土地將移交給巴生港務局,無需監管機構支付任何費用。」 他補充說,該公司已開始將西港2號集裝箱碼頭從CT10擴建至CT17,預計初始開發總成本爲126令吉。
Westports Executive Chairman and Group Managing Director Datuk Ruben Emir Gnanalingam Abdullah said Westports 2 will double the current 14 million TEUs handling yard capacity to 28 million TEUs.
Westports執行主席兼集團董事總經理拿督魯本埃米爾·格納林加姆·阿卜杜拉表示,西港2號將把目前的1400萬標準箱裝卸場容量翻一番,達到2800萬標準箱。
"Westports is committed and will invest and maintain Port Klang as one of the region's biggest and most competitive mega-transhipment hubs and Malaysia's premier gateway shipping port," he added.
他補充說:「Westports承諾並將投資和維護巴生港作爲該地區最大、最具競爭力的超級轉運樞紐之一,也是馬來西亞首屈一指的門戶航運港口。」
