Singapore Land net profit up 5% in 1Q 2011

Net profit increased from $55.5 million to $58.2 million for the period ended 31 March 2011, said Singapore Land.

According to their report, revenue at $138.3 million increased by $30.7 million or 29% due to higher progressive sales recognition of trading properties and improved revenue in Pan Pacific Singapore hotel, partially offset by lower rental income.

Sales of trading properties at $48.4 million was higher by $29.1 million or 151% due to additional units sold and higher percentage of completion in The Trizon residential project.

Revenue in Pan Pacific Singapore hotel increased by $3.1 million or 12% to $28.5 million with higher room and occupancy rates, and F&B revenue.

Although occupancy rates have improved, gross rental income from investment properties dropped by $1.5 million or 2% to $60.0 million as renewal rentals were still lower than the expiry rates.

Share of operating results of associated companies decreased by $2.8 million or 25% to $8.2 million attributable mainly to absence of contribution from One Amber residential project, partially offset by higher contributions from Mandarin Oriental and Marina Mandarin hotels (higher room and F&B revenue).

Overall, net attributable profit increased by $1.1 million or 2% to $48.8 million.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
