Acquisition of subsidiary
On 28 May 2024, pursuant to a rights issue by Tower Real Estate Investment Trust ("Tower REIT"), GuocoLand (Malaysia) Berhad ("GLM"), a subsidiary of the Group, acquired an additional 11.66% of the shares and voting interests of Tower REIT for a consideration of $9.1 million, bringing its equity interest from 21.66% to 33.32%. At the Group, the effective interest in Tower REIT accordingly increased from 14.73% to 22.66%.
In the current financial year, the auditors of GLM reassessed that Tower REIT should be accounted for as a consolidated subsidiary instead of an equity accounted associate. Accordingly, changes to the comparative figures have been made.
From the date of the acquisition to 30 June 2024, Tower REIT contributed $0.9 million revenue to the Group's results. A net gain of $11.2 million relating to the deemed acquisition was recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as a result of the negative goodwill ($39.5 million) arising from the deemed acquisition, the loss on remeasurement of previously held interests of Tower REIT ($25.6 million) and the translation losses reclassified to profit or loss and comprehensive income ($2.7 million).
Key changes to the comparative figures have been summarised as follows:

The Amendments to SFRS(I) 1-12: International Tax Reform - Pillar Two Model Rules introduce a temporary mandatory exception to the accounting for deferred taxes arising from the jurisdictional implementation of the Pillar Two model rules as well as disclosure requirements on the exposure to Pillar Two income taxes upon adoption.
Accordingly, the Group has applied the temporary mandatory exception in Amendments to SFRS(I) 1-12: International Tax Reform - Pillar Two Model Rules retrospectively and is not accounting for deferred taxes arising from any top-up tax due to the Pillar Two model rules in the consolidated financial statements.
The ultimate holding company and its subsidiaries continue to monitor Pillar Two legislative developments and evaluate the potential exposure to the Pillar Two income taxes for all of its subsidiaries that operate in the same jurisdictions as the Group.

In the previous financial year, a high-rise office tower ("North Tower") in Guoco Changfeng City, Shanghai was transferred from development properties to investment properties due to change in use to hold the asset for capital appreciation and rental income. Accordingly, the property was transferred at fair value and the fair value gain of $123.7 million was recognised in the profit or loss under cost of sales.

Valuation
Investment properties are stated at fair value based on independent valuations. The fair value of investment properties is determined by external independent property valuers, which have appropriate recognised professional qualifications and recent experience in the location and category of property being valued. The independent valuers provide the fair values of the Group's investment property portfolio annually. The fair values are based on market values being the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of the valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm's length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably.
The fair value measurement for the investment properties have been categorised as Level 3 fair values based on the inputs to the valuation techniques used.
The valuers have considered valuation techniques including the direct comparison method, income capitalisation method and residual land method in determining the open market values. The specific risks inherent in each of the properties are taken into consideration in arriving at the valuations.
The direct comparison method involves the analysis of comparable sales of similar properties and adjusting the sale prices to that reflective of the investment properties, taking into consideration the location, tenure, age of development, trade mix, lettable area, condition, facilities within the development, standard of finishes and fittings as well as date of transaction.
The income capitalisation approach is an investment approach whereby the gross passing income has been adjusted to reflect anticipated operating costs and an ongoing vacancy to produce a net income on a fully leased basis. The adopted fully leased net income is capitalised over the remaining term of the lease from the date of valuation at an appropriate investment yield which reflects the nature, location and tenancy profile of the property together with current market investment criteria.
The residual land method involves the deduction of the estimated total development and related costs, together with developer's profit margin, from the gross development value assuming it was completed as at the date of valuation. In estimating the gross development value, the valuer has considered the sale of comparable properties and adjustments are made to reflect the differences in location, tenure, size, standard of finishes and fittings as well as the dates of transactions.
The following table shows the Group's valuation techniques used in measuring the fair value of investment properties and the key unobservable inputs used:

The Group adopts the percentage of completion method of revenue recognition for residential projects under the progressive payment scheme in Singapore and Malaysia.
The Group recognises an allowance for foreseeable losses on development properties taking into consideration the selling prices of comparable properties, location of property, expected net selling prices and development expenditure. Market conditions may, however, change which may affect the future selling prices of the remaining unsold residential units of the development properties and accordingly, the carrying value of development properties for sale may have to be written down in future periods. During the financial year, allowance for foreseeable losses of $82.8 million (2024: $103.8 million) has been made in respect of the Group's development properties.

Review of performance of the Group
Statement of profit or loss
On the back of the strong performance from Singapore for both twin engines of the property development ("Property Development") and property investment ("Property Investment") businesses, the Group closed the financial year ended 30 June 2025 with a total revenue of $1.92 billion, an increase of 5% as compared to the previous financial year ("FY24"). Overall, the Group achieved a profit attributable to equity holders of $107.1 million for FY25, a decrease of 17% year-on-year ("y-o-y"), as growth in Singapore was offset by losses in China.
Revenue from Property Development grew 3% y-o-y to $1.56 billion for FY25. Progressive recognition of profits from the residential developments in Singapore, that have been substantially sold, contributed $1.28 billion of Property Development revenue, similar to FY24. Singapore's Property Development continued to provide a strong base for the Group's performance and contributed more than 80% of the Group's Property Development revenue in FY25.
China's Property Development revenue increased 28% y-o-y to $190.8 million for FY25 because the hand-over of some residential units at Guoco Central Park in Chongqing to buyers began in 2H FY25. China continues to be a challenging market and sales remain weak. The Group will continue to focus on improving liquidity and reducing gearing in China's Property Development by actively monetising its residential properties in Chongqing.
As there continues to be challenges in the Chinese residential market, the Group recognised an allowance for foreseeable losses of $81.8 million in 2H FY25 for its China's development properties. Mainly due to the operating losses in China, total operating profit for the Group decreased 7% y-o-y to $298.8 million for FY25, although operating profit from Singapore had grown 15% y-o-y to $382.4 million for FY25.
Revenue from Property Investment grew 22% y-o-y to $281.1 million for FY25, mainly driven by growth in the Singapore portfolio. Revenue from Singapore's Property Investment portfolio contributed 87% of the Group's Property Investment revenue in FY25. Revenue from Singapore's Property Investment grew 21% y-o-y to $244.8 million, mainly due to higher recurring rental revenue from Guoco Tower and Guoco Midtown. Committed occupancy for both Guoco Tower and Guoco Midtown remained close to 100%.
In FY25, the fair value gains from the Group's Singapore investment properties portfolio increased to $76.5 million. This was partially offset by lower valuations of the Group's investment properties in China. As a result, the Group recognised total fair value gains on investment properties of $58.9 million for FY25, an increase of 46% y-o-y.
The Group recognised a share of loss of associates and joint ventures of $5.1 million for FY25 as compared to a share of profit of $14.5 million for FY24. This was mainly due to expenses recognised from new joint venture projects in the current financial year. Y-o-y, net finance costs fell 12% to
$180.0 million for FY25 mainly due to lower interest rates in FY25 as compared to FY24.
In line with the growth and strong assets from Singapore's twin engines, profit before tax from Singapore grew 43% y-o-y to $339.1 million for FY25. After including the losses from China, profit before tax for the Group was $172.6 million for FY25, similar to FY24.
Statement of financial position
The Group's equity attributable to ordinary equity holders was $4.34 billion as at 30 June 2025, unchanged from the last financial year end, as profit recorded for FY25 was largely offset by dividends of $66.7 million paid. Mainly due to the full redemption of the $400 million perpetual securities in January 2025 and the issuance of the $180 million perpetual securities in February 2025, total equity fell slightly by 3% y-o-y.
Total assets for the Group stood at $12.38 billion as at 30 June 2025. Singapore's high quality residential developments and prime investment properties, which are the key growth drivers for the Group, made up 76% of the Group's total assets.
The Group's investment properties increased 3% y-o-y to $6.97 billion as at 30 June 2025. The increase was due to the acquisition of additional three floors of office space at 20 Collyer Quay, the Group's Grade A commercial building at Raffles Place. Construction progress and higher valuations of the Group's investment properties portfolio in Singapore had also contributed to the increase.
Mainly due to the strong sales driving progressive recognition of development projects in Singapore (including joint venture residential projects), the Group's associates and joint ventures, and inventories decreased by 7% and 6%, to $680.3 million and $3.14 billion respectively as at 30 June 2025. During the year, the Group replenished its Singapore's residential development pipeline with the acquisition of River Valley Green (Parcel B) and completed the acquisition of the land parcels at Margaret Drive, Faber Walk and Tengah Garden Avenue with joint venture partners.
In line with the sales activities of the Singapore's development projects and the obtaining of Temporary Occupation Permit for Midtown Modern in 2H FY25, trade and other receivables increased by 57% y-o-y to $370.4 million as at 30 June 2025 mainly due to increase in sales proceeds receivables.
The Group's loans and borrowings are backed by the Group's high quality assets in Singapore. Along with the acquisition of new land plots in Singapore during the year, the Group's total loans and borrowings increased slightly by 3% y-o-y to $5.48 billion as at 30 June 2025. Approximately 50% of the Group's loans and borrowings are backed by a strong portfolio of high-quality investment assets with stable, recurring rental revenue and cash flows in Singapore. The remaining loans and borrowings are mainly to support the development projects in Singapore. As these development projects are progressively completed, the accompanying loans will be progressively repaid with the sales proceeds received. As at 30 June 2025, debt-to-assets1 ratio stayed at 0.4 times for the Group.
1 Refers to total loans and borrowings divided by total assets.
Reportable segments
Assets in Singapore, which accounted for 76% of the Group's total assets as at 30 June 2025, continued to be a strong foundation for the Group's performance for FY25. The GuocoLand Singapore segment contributed close to 80% of the Group's revenue, achieving revenue of $1.52 billion for FY25, an increase of 3% y-o-y. Revenue growth was mainly from Property Investment due to higher rental revenue from the Group's premium Grade A offices. Whilst revenue from Property Investment grew 21% y-o-y to $244.8 million, revenue from sales of residential developments in Singapore continued to anchor the Group's revenue, contributing $1.28 billion for FY25. In line with the growth in revenue, operating profit from GuocoLand Singapore increased 15% y-o-y to $382.4 million for FY25. Together with the lower net finance cost and the higher fair value gains on investment properties, profit after tax for the segment increased 40% y-o-y to $301.5 million for FY25.
GuocoLand China's assets accounted for 14% of the Group's total assets as at 30 June 2025. The segment's revenue increased 24% y-o-y to $210.5 million for FY25. The increase was mainly contributed by revenue recognised from sold units of Guoco Central Park in Chongqing which were handed over to buyers in 2H FY25. In view of the prevailing uncertain outlook of the real estate sector in China, the segment recognised an allowance for foreseeable losses of $81.8 million on its development properties in 2H FY25. As a result, the segment recorded an operating loss of $92.1 million for FY25. Together with the fair value loss of $19.2 million recognised for investment properties in Shanghai, the loss after tax for the segment was $112.1 million for FY25.
GuocoLand Malaysia segment's revenue for FY25 was $115.2 million, an increase of 8% y-o-y mainly due to an increase in the recurring revenue from Property Investment. Overall, the segment's profit after tax decreased 54% y-o-y to $9.3 million for FY25 as profit for FY24 included a one-off net gain of $11.2 million from the deemed acquisition of a subsidiary.
Statement of cash flows
For FY25, the Group generated net cash from operating activities of $202.8 million. This was lower than the $472.0 million generated for FY24 as sales proceeds collected in FY25 was used for the acquisition of a residential land parcel during the year.
Net cash used in investing activities for FY25 was $36.4 million as cash return from residential joint ventures was used for additions in investment properties during the financial year. In FY24, cash used in investment activities was $241.1 million, mainly due to investments in associates and ventures. Net cash used in financing activities of $390.4 million for FY25 was mainly for loans repayments, redemption of perpetual securities, interest and dividend payments.

-
A commentary at the date of the announcement of the significant trends and competitive conditions of the industry in which the Group operates and any known factors or events that may affect the Group in the next operating period and the next 12 months
Singapore
Singapore's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) grew by an average of 4.3% in the first half of the year. This solid performance prompted the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI) to upgrade its full-year GDP growth forecast for 2025 to 1.5% to 2.5%, an improvement from its earlier forecast. However, potential risks from global geopolitical and trade tensions remain.
Buying demand from homeowners remains resilient, supported by a healthy labour market and moderating interest rates. Price growth was moderate in the private residential property market, as the second quarter of 2025 saw prices rising by 1.0% quarter-on-quarter, a modest increase compared to the end of 2024.
The office market in Singapore showed resilience, particularly in the core Central Business District (CBD). Effective rents for Grade A offices increased slightly, and the vacancy rate improved, indicating a healthy demand for high-quality spaces. This is driven by a notable "flight to quality" trend, where companies are moving to buildings with superior features.
China
China's economy grew by 5.2% year-on-year in the second quarter (2Q) of 2025, slightly lower than the 5.4% in the previous quarter. Although the 2Q growth was slower than that of first quarter, the overall growth for first half of 2025 is still in line with the government target of 5%. To support growth, the People's Bank of China has maintained key lending rates at record lows, including the 5-year loan prime rate at 3.5%. Recent data suggests a slowing decline in new home prices. A sustainable recovery will be dependent on the overall economy and consumer confidence improving.
In the office sector, Shanghai's vacancy rate edged up to 22.4% in 2Q as 163,000 square metres of new supply entered the market, pressuring rents. For the rest of the year, over 700,000 square metres of new office space is expected. The authorities have begun taking steps to address the issue, primarily by scaling back commercial land sales, encouraging developers to return plots which have not started development, as well as promoting conversion of existing office stock to alternative uses. These actions will gradually reduce the volume of new office supply entering the market.
Malaysia
Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) has adjusted its 2025 GDP growth forecast to a more conservative range of 4.0% to 4.8% (from 4.5% to 5.5%), citing a slowing global economy. BNM reduced the Overnight Policy Rate (OPR) to 2.75% in July as a pre-emptive move to ensure the economy remains on a steady growth path amid moderate inflation pressure.
The first quarter (1Q) of 2025 saw a dip in the overall Malaysian property market, with transaction volumes declining by 6.2% and value by 9.0% year-on-year. Despite the slowdown in transactions, construction activity grew in 1Q 2025, with 28,344 residential units beginning construction, up from 21,391 units in 1Q 2024.
The commercial office market in Greater Kuala Lumpur continues to face challenges. The overall vacancy rate was 16.1% in the first quarter of 2025, with KL City (CBD) seeing a vacancy rate of 19.4%, which slightly narrowed to 19.2% in the second quarter of 2025.

SINGAPORE, 28 August 2025 - GuocoLand Limited ("GuocoLand") (国浩房地产) and its subsidiaries (the "Group") achieved revenue of S$1.92 billion for the financial year ended 30 June 2025 ("FY2025"), comparable to the S$1.82 billion in revenue achieved for the previous financial year. The resilient performance was underpinned by the Group's twin engines of Property Development and Property Investment, which performed well during the year.
Revenue from Property Development grew 3% year-on-year ("y-o-y") to S$1.56 billion for FY2025 from S$1.52 billion for FY2024, supported by progressive recognition of earnings from substantially sold residential developments in Singapore. Property Investment revenue also grew 22% to S$281 million for FY2025 from S$230 million for FY2024, due to higher rental revenue from Guoco Tower and Guoco Midtown. During the year, Singapore remained the key driver of the Group's performance, achieving revenue of S$1.52 billion, or about 80% of total revenue, across both Property Development and Property Investment.
The Group turned in an operating profit of S$299 million for FY2025, down 7% y-o-y from FY2024. Singapore operating profit grew 15% to S$382 million for FY2025, from S$332 million in FY2024. The higher operating profit from Singapore was offset by an allowance for foreseeable losses made on China development properties, in view of the persistent headwinds in the real estate sector there.
Mr Cheng Hsing Yao, Group Chief Executive Officer of GuocoLand (郑馨尧, 集团总裁,国浩房地产), said, "Both our twin engines of Property Development and Property Investment in Singapore have contributed to our strong performance for FY2025, despite pervasive macroeconomic uncertainties. We expect our businesses in Singapore to stay resilient going forward."
