The Hong Kong-listed Parkson Retail Group Limited reported a significant improvement in PATAMI q-o-q, more than doubling from RMB19.896m to RMB43.197m.
It
has been almost 5 years, since the previous dividend was declared by the Hong
Kong-listed Parkson Retail Group Limited. With a turnaround in results, it has
declared a dividend of RMB0.01/share.
“Looking ahead, with four new stores in the pipeline, the Group is well-positioned to capture growth opportunities in markets that we are very familiar with. These new stores will enable us to offer our customers an even wider range of high-quality products. As an outstanding commercial space operator, we aim to provide our customers with an exceptional shopping and life experiences. We are confident that these experiences will contribute significantly to our long-term sustainable growth and profitability.”
Meanwhile,
even though Parkson Retail Asia Limited reported a slightly decrease in PATAMI
on a sequential basis, from SGD9.176m to SGD8.85m, the PATAMI in Ringgit Malaysia
term, could be little changed due to the strengthening of SGD against RM.
As these two foreign-listed companies are the two key subsidiaries of Parkson Holdings Berhad, we could reasonably expect the holding company to report stronger earnings in 2Q23 compared to the immediate preceding quarter.
