Yanlord's profit down 5% to $664.88m in 2019

Pre-tax profit decline was blamed on decrease in gross profit and increase in finance cost.

Yanlord Land Group (Yanlord) saw its net attributable profit dip 5% YoY to $664.88m (RMB3.35b) in FY2019 from $702.64m (RMB3.54b) in 2018, an SGX filing revealed. Similarly, revenue crashed 25% YoY to $3.72b (RMB18.67b) from $4.96b (RMB24.89b) over the same period.

The revenue decline was blamed on decrease in gross floor area (GFA) delivered to customers in FY2019, in line with the Group’s delivery schedule. Revenue was mainly generated from Riverbay Gardens (Phase 1) and Riverbay Gardens (Phase 2) in Suzhou; Yanlord on the Park in Shanghai; and Yanlord Riverbay (Phase 3) in Chengdu, which represented 24.4%, 19.6%, 12.8% and 11.1% of the group's gross revenue on sales of properties.

Pre-tax profit also dropped 16.6% YoY to $1.75b (RMB8.8b) in FY2019, mainly due to the decrease in gross profit and increase in finance cost, partly offset by the gain on bargain purchase arising from the acquisition of UEL and increase in fair value gain on investment properties.

Dividend was declared at 0.068 cents (RMB0.3431).

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.
