During the half-year period, revenue increased by 46.6% y-o-y to $135.5 million due to higher sales from the retail and trading of gold and luxury items. Higher interest income from MoneyMax’s pawnbroking and secured lending segments also led to the higher revenue.

Other losses increased by 28.2% y-o-y to $0.3 million due to the provision of doubtful debts in the 1HFY2022.
