The Group’s total shareholders’ equity declined
marginally by 0.5% to $535.5 million as we positioned
ourselves to consolidate our core businesses and
investments.
Despite the challenges that the Group faced in
FY2015, it continued to progressively upgrade its hotel
properties as it geared itself up to increase its market
share in these key markets.
In January 2015, the Group completed the acquisition
of The Baba House in Melaka, a 97-room conservation
hotel that is situated in the core heritage zone.
Moving ahead, the Group expects to expand its
hospitality room inventory in key cities in the Asia
Pacific by way of acquisitions. It will also actively
upgrade and maximize rental income from its
investment properties in New Zealand
