Commentary from company on recent results
"In Singapore, the resale market for residential properties continues to be weak. As a result, up to Q3, only one unit of the RiverGate apartment was sold. Our associate company however was able to sell 9 medical office units of the Orchard Medical Centre. Our share of SGD792,000 profit was recognised in Q3 arising from the sale of 2 medical office units. Our share of profits from the sale of the additional 7 medical office units of SGD3 million is expected to be recognized in Q4. The associate has a balance of 38 unsold units.
The residential market in UK is buoyant in terms of price and rental and the Group is looking to capitalize on the strong demand The Group is currently in negotiations for investments in both the commercial and residential sectors.
With signs of a gradual recovery in the UK economy, the Group has plans to reposition the service offices to long-lease offices that will result in lower operating costs and higher income. The repositioning may affect income in the first half of 2014 as existing short-term leases are likely to be terminated.
The Group’s property and investment portfolio will continue to provide a recurrent income for the coming year.
The Group had on 7 October 2013 announced the redemption of loan notes (“Notes”) issued by Eastcomm Pte. Ltd. to ordinary shares in the share capital of AsiaPhos Limited (“AsiaPhos”). The redemption of the Notes and accrued interest resulted in 24,452,384 AsiaPhos shares being issued to the Group at a cost of $0.1875 per AsiaPhos share. Based on the invitation price of $0.25 per AsiaPhos share, the Group had an unrealised fair value gain of approximately $1.5 million on the date of the AsiaPhos Listing. The Group has to observe a 6 months moratorium which will end on 6 April 2014."
