On Aug 12, CapitaLand reported lower profit after tax and minority interest (Patmi) for both 2Q19 and 1H19 ended June compared to a year ago, after the developer incurred a one-off transaction cost of $36 million for the ASB acquisition in 2Q19.

In addition, Patmi for 1H19 fell 5.3% to $875.4 million from a year ago while Patmi for 2Q19 fell 4.2% to $579.8 million.
