SKK Holdings Limited's unaudited interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2025 show revenue growth of 55% to $6.2 million, primarily from cable and pipe laying works surging to $4.3 million (69.6% of total) versus $1.9 million prior year, reflecting higher public sector project volumes at 96.6% of revenue. Pipeline and sewerage maintenance remained stable at $1.7 million. However, profitability deteriorated sharply with operating loss expanding to $2.4 million from $0.4 million, and net loss to $2.6 million, driven by general and administrative expenses ballooning to $4.3 million (70% of revenue) from $1.5 million, largely due to $2.4 million in share-based compensation for professional fees. Cost of revenues rose 43% in line with revenue, while selling expenses were stable. Balance sheet reflects expansion with total assets up 9% to $28.0 million, supported by property and equipment additions ($3.3 million capex), but cash declined 38% to $1.9 million amid operating cash burn of $0.5 million. Bank debt increased to $8.3 million. Equity grew modestly to $7.2 million post 3.125 million shares issued for compensation, boosting shares outstanding 20% to 18.75 million. Critically, on April 14, 2025, Nasdaq notified non-compliance with $1 bid price rule, granting 180 days to October 13, 2025 to regain via potential reverse split, heightening delisting risk absent remedy. No forward guidance provided; management highlights operations funded via cash flows, bank facilities, and prior IPO proceeds from October 2024 ($7.0 million gross). Investors should monitor bid price trajectory and expense normalization excluding one-time compensation.
