Last week, Graham Baker, Group Finance Director, hosted our 2024 half-year analyst presentation, where he shared the Group's strategic priorities, financial performance and outlook for the full year. Watch the replay here https://lnkd.in/gzjC_TbE #Jardines #JardineMatheson

Jardines has announced our 2024 half-year results. • Underlying profit attributable to shareholders of US$550 million and underlying earnings per share of US$1.91 • Stable interim dividend of US$0.60 • Underlying profit 33% below 2023, principally due to non-recurring impairments in Hongkong Land • DFI Retail underlying profit up 127% “The Group delivered weaker results in the first half of 2024, impacted by impairments in Hongkong Land’s Chinese mainland Development Properties business and challenging market conditions in Indonesia and Vietnam. There was, however, an encouraging improvement in DFI Retail’s year-on-year performance. The Group has a strong balance sheet and, under leadership strengthened by new CEOs in four of its portfolio companies, will focus on delivering sustainable long-term value and growth from its growing markets in Asia.” Ben Keswick, Executive Chairman Read the full announcement at > https://lnkd.in/ghjAj_CR #Jardines #JardineMatheson
