Westhill-based construction group, CHAP (Holdings) Limited, has lodged its accounts ending 30 September 2017, which show a marked improvement in trading performance despite ongoing challenging market conditions.<\/p>\n

The privately owned, Aberdeenshire company recorded an operating profit of \u00a3668,000 from a turnover of\u00a340.5m, against a loss of \u00a31.37m from a turnover of\u00a0\u00a337.1m in 2016; an improvement the company attributes to improved trading and an increased focus on site efficiency and general control of costs.<\/p>\n

A write-down in investment property value of \u00a3804,000 resulted in a pre-tax loss of \u00a3276,000, versus \u00a31.523m in 2016. A revaluation of the company\u2019s final salary pension scheme saw an improvement of \u00a3476,000 and a total comprehensive income of \u00a345,000 for the year.<\/p>\n

CHAP\u2019s Civil Engineering division recorded a significant increase in turnover compared to 2016. While recording a small loss, trading was significantly ahead of 2016 and slightly ahead of budget. The firm is confident that the division is on track to return to profit in 2018. The division is about to embark upon two exciting projects on the Fair Isle and the Isle of Canna working alongside SSE Contracting.<\/p>\n

CHAP Quarries reported a small reduction in turnover in 2017 with a corresponding drop in profit when compared to 2016. Concrete sales were in line with the prior year but sales of dry materials were down slightly on the year before. The division has a planning application currently under consideration for a new sand resource to the north of Ellon with determination expected in early spring. The division is actively seeking additional resource and has invested in new quarrying plant, increasing production capacity and efficiency within its existing operations.<\/p>\n

Hugh Craigie, joint managing director of CHAP Group, said: \u201cThese results are in line with expectations and demonstrate that the Group\u2019s strategy is on-track to deliver targeted improvements in performance. Early indications in the current year are positive and while the winning of new contracts continues to be highly competitive, we are confident that this progress can be maintained. The Group\u2019s move towards a higher proportion of self-delivered, residential developments is expected to drive many benefits across the Group\u2019s divisions and we look forward to these developments progressively coming on stream in the coming months.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
