Outlook We are looking forward to FY2025, as the first year of a re-engineered, revitalised and refocused Murray & Roberts. We are satisfied that we have appropriately rightsized our business and that the size and quality of the Group's order book are creating the potential for further improved financial results in FY2025. We will continue working towards finding the best solution for settling our debt with the banking consortium and establishing an optimal capital structure for the Group for the future.
