FINANCIALS OVERVIEW

St John SA has a strong net asset position and the five years of positive results since 2016/17 further strengthen the organisation’s financial position and provide an excellent platform for the continued investment in both our core business, and in business initiatives designed to generate material outcomes year on year.
