SP AusNet profit down 11.9% to A$146.2m

Increased half-year revenues and profit before tax were offset by a higher income tax expense.

A company announcement said this was primarily due to significant income tax benefits booked in the prior corresponding half associated with tax consolidation legislation amendments, investment allowance deductions and research and development deductions.

Singapore Power International Pte Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Singapore Power Limited, owns a 51% interest in SP AusNet.

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.
