Improved realisations and timely project deliveries have translated into strong revenue growth and a meaningful recovery in profitability. The strong performance in Q3 has materially offset the impact of the earlier loss-making quarters, marking a clear inflection point in our earnings trajectory. With healthy balance collections and surplus visibility from ongoing projects, we are well-positioned to support disciplined growth while continuing to strengthen our balance sheet. The expansion of our development pipeline reinforces our long-term growth visibility in high-demand urban micro-markets. Going forward, our focus remains on calibrated launches, execution-led delivery and consistent cash flow generation, while maintaining a disciplined approach to capital allocation and portfolio expansion."
