The S P Setia mission is to create value for all stakeholders. We achieved this by ensuring that S P Setia successfully evolved into a financially sound and profitable Group that maintains impressive year-on-year growth. Between 2001 and 2006, the Group's profit after tax rose by 163%, while the dividend payout ratio grew 100%.

This upward trend is set to continue as S P Setia has the competitive advantages that will keep it at the forefront of the highly competitive Malaysian property scene for the next decade and beyond.

The Group has one of the largest developable land banks in the country, acquired at very good prices. With the land bank estimated to last 10 to 15 years, and with the low holding costs, the Group is in a good position to build value over an extended period. Additionally, by keeping a strong balance sheet with low gearing, the Group is well placed to respond quickly and proactively to new growth opportunities that may materialise in the future.

Having proven ourselves as a market leader in the residential sector, the Group has identified commercial property development as a key driver for our next phase of growth. Numerous exciting commercial developments in the Klang Valley and Johore Bahru are in the pipeline.
