YOMA Strategic has given notice that it has recorded three consecutive years of losses.

Based on audited full-year consolidated accounts, the group recorded pre-tax losses for the last three consecutive financial years, it said in a bourse filing late on Thursday (Nov 9).

However, Yoma Strategic will not be placed on the Singapore Exchange’s (SGX) watch list, as its six-month average daily market cap as at Nov 9 was S$200.3 million.

According to rules under SGX’s listing manual, companies will be placed on the watch list if they record pre-tax losses for the three latest consecutive financial years, and have an average daily market cap of less than S$40 million over the last six months.

Yoma Strategic had released its first-half FY2024 results earlier on Thursday. It narrowed its net loss to US$2.5 million for the six months ended September, compared with a net loss of US$8.5 million posted in the corresponding year-ago period.

The group’s revenue jumped 172.8 per cent year on year to US$111.6 million from US$40.9 million, after it included its subsidiary Wave Money in its financials with effect from December 2022.
