- HRnetGroup (SGX:CHZ)'s FY22 revenue of S$611.8m (+3.6% y-o-y) was within our expectations. Revenue from the professional recruitment segment was up 2.4% y-o-y, despite an 8% decline in professional recruitment placements as HRnetGroup focused on higher value assignments. Gross profit per placement increased by ~12%, which was largely attributed to the economic recovery and higher wages.
