ESR Group plunges into US$57.9m loss in H1

The group attributed the loss to non-cash adjustments.

ESR Group dived in the red in H1 2024, recording a US$57.9m loss.

The H1 result is a reversal from its adjusted PATMI of US$303.8m in H1 2023. In the same period, the group also suffered a 31.4% YoY decrease in revenue, dropping to US$312.5m, due to a 37.0% YoY lower management fee of US$253.7m.

In a bourse filing, the asset manager attributed its loss to “non-cash adjustments and write-down tied to non-core divestments or near-term divestments, negative fair value movements and absence of promote fees.”

The group, however, underscored that these factors are "reflective of current market conditions, including the prolonged high interest rate environment, muted capital partner transaction activity, and continued macroeconomic softness in China."

The group also assured shareholders that its "underlying business remains healthy."

"The board is confident in the group’s ongoing strategic direction and core operating earnings," ESR Group said.

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.
