Shares in Aveng dropped by 4.06% to R19.86 per share in early trading on Tuesday, after the JSE-listed construction and engineering group reported on Monday evening that normalised earnings per share slumped by 55.6% to 67 cents in the six months to December 2021 from 151 cents in the prior period. The share price subsequently recovered and was trading 1.93% lower at R20.30 shortly before midday on Tuesday.

Flanagan said McConnell Dowell achieved an 18% growth in revenue to A$842 million, which represents the highest recorded half-year revenue in six years, despite Covid-19 challenges. Operating earnings dropped by 23% to R215 million from R280 million. Aveng attributed this decline largely to a once-off gain on project asset disposals in Moolmans in the prior period and depreciation and amortisation of R39 million in Trident Steel with no corresponding charge in the comparative period.
