Tianjin Pharma sees 2024 net profit growth

This was linked to the sale of its 13% equity interest in TSKF to Haleon China Co.

Tianjin Pharmaceutical Da Ren Tang Group expects that its net profit attributable to the owners of the parent for the financial year ended 31 December 2024 will range between approximately $399.1m (RMB2.15b) and $443.7m (RMB2.39b), according to a bourse filing.

This represents an increase of approximately $215.3m (RMB1.16b) to $259.9m (RMB1.4b), reflecting a year-on-year (YoY) increase of approximately 118% to 142%.

The increase in net profit was attributed to the sale of the company’s 13% equity interest in Tianjin TSKF Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (TSKF) to Haleon China Co., Ltd. in 2024, resulting in a disposal gain of approximately $317.4m (RMB1.71b), with an after-tax net profit of approximately $269.1m (RMB1.45b).

Additionally, it was also estimated that the net profit attributable to the owners of the parent, after deducting nonrecurring gains or losses, for 2024 will range from approximately $131.8m (RMB710m) to $155.9m (RMB840m).

This represents a decrease of approximately $45m (RMB242.3m) to $20.8m (RMB112.3m), reflecting a YoY decrease of approximately 25% to 12%.

The decline was mainly due to a decrease in investment income from the company’s associated companies, including TSKF, in 2024, as well as an increase in the provision for impairment losses on long-term assets compared to 2023.

The estimated results set out above are preliminary accounting data only.

“The actual financial results will be subject to the audited full-year financial statement for 2024 to be released by the company in due course,” the company said.

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.
