OUE projects net loss for FY2020

The pandemic has affected the ability of tenants to pay rent and other fees.

OUE Limited has informed it shareholders that it would likely post a loss for 2020, the company disclosed on 17 February.

On its investment properties, OUE reported an approximate loss of $424.4m. Approximately $298.9m, or 68.8%, of this loss was due to the disposal of the US Bank Tower September last year.

Impairment losses on property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets was also a factor to the loss.

The COVID-19 pandemic has dampened profit further, as it has affected the ability of tenants to pay rent and other fees.

The company is finalizing its FY2020 financial results, scheduled for disclosure on 24 February.

In 2019, OUE posted a net profit of $321.8 million

OUE stocks closed at $1.13 per share on 17 February, lower than its $1.14 close a day prior.

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.
