CapitaLand Investment Profit Slumps Amid China Headwinds
CapitaLand Investment, a real estate investment company, made less profit in the first half of the year.
This is partly because they sold some assets and faced problems in China, where they have a lot of investments.
Even though revenue decreased, it was slightly better than expected.
The company is trying to find new investors and sell some of its assets in China to manage the situation.
They are also investing more in other areas like data centers and private credit to diversify their business.
The CEO said that the China market will take time to recover, and the company is adjusting its goals.
CapitaLand Investment's first-half profit decreased by 13% to S$287 million.
Revenue also fell by 24% to S$1.04 billion, but exceeded analyst estimates.
The company is managing China exposure by attracting onshore investors and listing a local REIT.
CapitaLand plans to sell over S$500 million in Chinese assets this year.
The firm is increasing investments in data centers and private credit, expanding in other markets.
