TTJ Holdings’ revenue fell by 23.1 percent to $24.7 million in 1Q15, compared with the previous corresponding year, due to lower sales recorded in its structural steel business. Despite a lower revenue, the company’s gross profit margin rose from 25.3 percent in 1Q14 to 30 percent in 1Q15, a healthy improvement due to an increase in margins from projects secured and executed during the reporting period. Net profit fell by 9.8 percent to $4.2 million as expenses remained flat while revenue fell. No dividends are declared for the period.
