In 2005, the management and financial crisis that happened to this company caused this company to be taken over by Boustead Holdings and named as Boustead Naval Shipyard (BNS). BNS was then placed under Boustead Holdings subsidiary Boustead Heavy Industries Corporation (BHIC). In 2024, BNS was fully taken over by the Government through the Ministry of Finance's company Ocean Sunshine Sdn Bhd and rebranded as Lumut Naval Shipyard (LUNAS).
