| Leighton on track for profit growth of approximately 20% Leighton Holdings Limited announced an improved operating profit after tax (unaudited) for the nine months to 31 March 2006 of $169 million. Total revenue for the nine months was $7.1 billion. The results are being substantially driven by the continuing strength of the engineering and infrastructure market in Australia combined with growth in demand for commodities such as iron ore and coal. This strength is continuing to drive opportunities for the group and is evidenced by its work in hand, which stands at a record $16.1 billion compared with $14.8 billion at the half year. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
