I started serious Investing Journey in Jan 2000 to create wealth through long-term investing and short-term trading; but as from April 2013 my Journey in Investing has changed to create Retirement Income for Life till 85 years old in 2041 for two persons over market cycles of Bull and Bear.

Since 2017 after retiring from full-time job as employee; I am moving towards Investing Nirvana - Freehold Investment Income for Life investing strategy where 100% of investment income from portfolio investment is cashed out to support household expenses i.e. not a single cent of re-investing!

It is 57% (2017 to Aug 2022) to the Land of Investing Nirvana - Freehold Income for Life!

Lian Beng full year profits down 24.3 per cent


NET profit at construction-focused Lian Beng Group fell 24.3 per cent for the full year ended May 31, in the absence of a one-off gain that boosted the bottom line in the previous financial year.

Profit attributable to owners of the parent was S$39.4 million for financial year 2013, compared with S$52.1 million a year ago. Earnings per share (EPS) was 7.45 Singapore cents for FY2013, down from the 9.83 Singapore cents in FY2012.

Lian Beng's top line registered a growth of 13.6 per cent to S$505.6 million from a year ago. This was primarily due to higher contributions from its construction and ready-mixed concrete businesses, which make up about 95 per cent of all revenue. The company's third core business of property development posted lower income.

But the bottom line was hit by a 55.9 per cent plunge in other operating income to S$6.4 million. The company had booked a S$7.9 million gain from the sale of an investment property in the previous work year.
