- Yanlord (SGX:Z25)’s recent FY22 results disappointed and missed our expectations. Revenue and gross profit fell 18% and 13% y-o-y to CNY28.7b and CNY7.8b, respectively. This was due to a dip in gross floor area (GFA) delivered as a result of COVID-19 related lockdowns, but partially offset by higher average selling prices recognised. See Yanlord's announcement dated 28 Feb 2023.
