In its financial report filed with the Nigerian Exchange (NGX), the Group achieved an impressive revenue of N82.1 billion in H1 2023, compared to N62.9 billion in H1 2022.
This represents a substantial 31percent growth year-on-year.

Also, the Group’s  operating income grew by 46 percent from N20.5 billion in June 2022 to N29.9 billion in June 2023.

However, operating expenses for the period ended June 30, was N15.9 billion, an increase of 40 percent compared to N11.3 billion of the corresponding previous year.

Further, Transcorp reported an 39 percent growth in profit before tax to N18.5 billion in H1 2023, from N13.4 billion in H1 2022.

Interest cost declined by 9 percent to N6.6 billion in June 2023 from N6.1 billion in the same period under review.

Transcorp continues to maintain a strong balance sheet, with Total Assets rising to N495.3 billion, representing a 12 percent increase over the N442.7 billion recorded at the end of June 2022, due to the increase in Debt and equity securities (+61percent) and Trade and Other Receivables (+40 percent) which cushioned the effect of the decline in Inventories (+68 percent).

Transcorp shareholders’ funds remained very strong at N176.3 billion up from N154.8 billion recorded in the same period in 2022.

Dr.Omogiafo attributed the impressive performances to
” our dedication to driving innovation and seizing opportunities for sustainable growth, positioning Transcorp as a trailblazer in the Nigerian business realm.

President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday urged judges to continually update their knowledge on autonomous vessels, digital shipping, artificial intelligence-driven maritime operations, maritime security and evolving international environmental regulations.

President Tinubu made the call  in Abuja during the 18th International Maritime Seminar for Judges, organised by the Nigerian Shippers’ Council (NSC), under the auspices of the Federal Ministry of Marine and Blue Economy, in collaboration with the National Judicial Institute (NJI).

Represented by the Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Adegboyega Oyetola, President Tinubu lauded the Nigerian Shippers’ Council for initiating and sustaining the international seminar for judges.

He described it as one of Nigeria’s foremost platforms for strengthening maritime jurisprudence, enhancing judicial capacity and promoting excellence in maritime justice.

According to Oyetola , rapid technological advancement is creating unprecedented legal questions relating to liability, navigational responsibility, insurance, collision regulations and allocation of responsibility when autonomous vessels malfunction.

He emphasised that the courts will increasingly adjudicate disputes involving decarbonisation, environmental compliance, blockchain-enabled cargo documentation, electronic bills of lading and other evolving international maritime legal frameworks.

“The emergence of autonomous vessels demands a judiciary equipped to resolve complex legal questions involving liability, insurance, navigation and technological accountability.

“Judicial officers must remain abreast of evolving international maritime law to ensure justice keeps pace with technological innovation,” he said.
