For the first half of 2025, Pavillon Holdings Ltd. reported a significant shift from a net profit in the prior period to a net loss. Overall revenue saw a slight decrease, though contributions from China operations increased, partially offsetting a decline in restaurant revenue. Expenses rose considerably, particularly finance expenses and currency exchange losses due to the depreciation of the Renminbi against the Singapore Dollar. Other operating expenses also increased, driven by higher administrative, occupancy, and marketing costs. Strategic changes included the reclassification of associated companies, Fengchi IOT and Daju, as subsidiaries, which impacted various financial lines, including interest income and depreciation.
Despite the net loss, the Group saw a substantial net increase in cash and cash equivalents, primarily from investing activities, largely due to proceeds from the disposal of investments classified as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). The Group continues to operate within a dynamic and competitive environment, facing challenges like rising costs and cautious consumer spending due to global economic uncertainties and potential US tariffs.
