Chairman’s Address
During the 2022 Financial Year the EVZ group posted a solid operating profit in changeable but improving operating and economic conditions. Importantly, all operations in Australia and South-East Asia contributed to the overall result.
EVZ grew revenues by 17% to $67.5M and delivered an EBITDA of $3.2M in FY22. Importantly we secured over $134M in new contract wins and ended the year with a backlog in excess of $100M. Demand for EVZ services is at an all-time high across the Brockman, Syfon and TSF Power businesses.
As a result, the financial structure of the group has been further strengthened and it is looking forward to delivering significant growth in revenues and profit across its core markets in the 2023 financial year and beyond.
A stated aim of EVZ has been to retire all debt from our and it Is to announce that we Company exceptionally pleasing reached that milestone during Q1 FY23. The retiring of our debt significantly de-risks our future financial outlook as well as provides a greater basis to scale the group and build momentum in FY23 and beyond.
In addition, the Group was able to invest in the necessary fixed assets and growth in its core skills base in preparation for delivery of increased revenues during FY2023.
Brockman Engineering posted an improved operating profit but was unable to exert significant momentum due to the slower than anticipated commencement of recently awarded major projects in the oil and gas sector.
