GuocoLand profit drops 38% to $129m in FY2024 amidst higher costs

It also reported lower basic earnings per share.

GuocoLand's profit attributable to equity holders dropped 38% YoY to $129m in FY2024, affected by higher financing costs, reduced fair value gains on investment properties, and a challenging market in China.

With lower net profit, the company’s basic earnings per share fell 41% YoY to $0.0995.

The company, however, reported improved revenue and operating profit in FY 2024.

In FY 2024, revenue rose 18% YoY to $1.8b whilst operating profit increased by 13% YoY to $320m.

GuocoLand attributed its improved revenue to higher contributions from its Property Investments and Property Development segments.

Revenue for the two segments rose 35% and 16% YoY, respectively.

With improved revenue, the company proposed a final dividend of $0.06.

The company will pay the proposed dividend on 19 November if it receives approval during its annual general meeting on 24 October.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
