ComfortDelGro's profit dipped 4.9% to $301.5m in 2017

This was due to a 2.2% decline in revenue.

ComfortDelGro Corporation Limited reported that its profit fell by 4.9% YoY from $317.1m to $301.5m in 2017.

According to its financial statement, this was due to lower group profit after taxation, but was partially offset by higher profits from the purchase of 49% interest in ComfortDelGro Corporation Australia.

Revenue also inched down by 2.2% YoY from $4.06b in 2016 to $3.97b in 2017.

This was dragged by revenue from CDG’s taxi (-9.9% to $1.21b), automotive engineering services (-14.3% to $283.4m), car rental and leasing (-13.5% to $31.5m), inspection and testing services (-2.9% to $104m), and bus station (-4.8% to $25.6m) business units.

The declines were offset by public transport services (+3.6% to $2.39b) and driving centre (+5.5% to $42.2m) business units.

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.
