Despite the losses, the company’s revenue rose 13.9% year-on-year to 1.0876 trillion won from 954.9 billion won the previous year.
Of total revenue, 64.8% came from domestic commercial building construction projects, while residential construction accounted for 30.2%. Civil engineering and rental businesses contributed 4.2% and 0.8% of revenue, respectively.
