Hiap Hoe braces for loss, issues profit guidance for Q4

The weak property market is to blame.

Mainboard-listed real estate group Hiap Hoe Limited has issued a profit guidance in light of an anticipated loss for the fourth quarter.

Hiap Hoe expects to record a net loss in Q4 due to agent sales commissions on sold units for Marina Tower, a residential property at Melbourne which forms part of the mix-development project, as well as qualifying certificate extension charges for Treasure On Balmoral

The expected loss is also on back of an impairment loss for Treasure On Balmoral, as well as a foreign exchange loss, a fair value loss on investment in Ley Choon Group Holdings, and property taxes.

Hiap Hoe expects to remain profitable for the full year.

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.
