GuocoLand profit drops 38% to $129m in FY2024 amidst higher costs

It also reported lower basic earnings per share.

GuocoLand's profit attributable to equity holders dropped 38% YoY to $129m in FY2024, affected by higher financing costs, reduced fair value gains on investment properties, and a challenging market in China.

With lower net profit, the company’s basic earnings per share fell 41% YoY to $0.0995.

The company, however, reported improved revenue and operating profit in FY 2024.

In FY 2024, revenue rose 18% YoY to $1.8b whilst operating profit increased by 13% YoY to $320m.

GuocoLand attributed its improved revenue to higher contributions from its Property Investments and Property Development segments.

Revenue for the two segments rose 35% and 16% YoY, respectively.

With improved revenue, the company proposed a final dividend of $0.06.

The company will pay the proposed dividend on 19 November if it receives approval during its annual general meeting on 24 October.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
