Significant events
- “The Group reported a positive current asset position, with current assets exceeding current liabilities by US$2.7 million (2023: US$46.2 million). The significant decrease is primarily due to the decrease in amount due from immediate holding company following the declaration of US$ 78 million dividends during the year, which remains unpaid at the year end.”
- “The Group has commenced the transition to alternative fuels, including green methanol. These initiatives not only support decarbonisation objectives but also provide a hedge against conventional fuel price volatility.”
