Q&M Dental profits dip 10% to $3.6m in Q3

The deconsolidation of Aoxin last April was partly to blame.

Q&M Dental profits fall by 9.97% YoY to $3.6m in Q3 due to spin-off listing of Aoxin on the SGX-Catalist Board from a subsidiary to an associate.

According to its financial statement, the deconsolidation also negatively affected revenue from its dental equipment and supplies distribution which fell steeply by 55% YoY to $1.89m in Q3.

Similarly, revenue from dental and medical clinics declined by 5% YoY to $27.57m due to Aoxin’s deconsolidation however the impact was offset by revenue contributions from existing and newly opened dental outlets in Singapore and Malaysia.

There was no revenue contribution from dental supplies manufacturing in Q3 as Aidite was similarly deconsolidated in December 2016 to associate.

As of September, Q&M Dental has a total of 72 dental outlets, 4 medical outlets and 1 aesthetic center in operations.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
