HPL’s net profit crashed 68% to $14.3m in Q1

Due to weak contributions from its property arm.

Hotel Properties Limited (HPL) reported that its net profit crashed 68% year-on-year to $14.3m in the first quarter, dragged by weaker contributions from its property division.

In particular, there were no contributions from Tomlinson Heights, which achieved its Temporary Occupation Permit (TOP) in the same quarter last year.

The group also reported that its results were impacted by a weaker share of results from joint ventures and associates, which posted a loss of $3.9m this quarter compared to a profit of $4.6m in 1Q14.

This was due mainly to lower profit contribution from both The Interlace at Alexandra Road and d’Leedon at Farrer Road, Singapore, which were completed in September 2013 and October 2014 respectively.

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.
