Further the price to earning ratio stood at 2.72 times, as at 31 March 2022. Inspired by its success within Sri Lanka, the company plans to expand the operations in the Middle East and expand its geographical footprint further in the near future. Functioning as a pioneering presence in Sri Lanka’s engineering and technology sphere, Luminex is a profitable entity that is geared for growth and counts top companies as clients.  It is the primary telecommunication engineering services provider for Sri Lanka Telecom and Dialog Axiata, and a civil engineering service provider for the National Water Supply & Drainage Board and the Ministry of Defense and many private and public sector clients.
