• Revenue Surges to S\$878.4 Million on North Gaia Project Completion
• Proposed 1-for-4 Bonus Share Issue
• Substantial Dividend Payout of 5 Cents per Share (Including Special Dividend)
• Strategic Acquisition: Chuan Grove Project with S\$1.33 Billion Land Cost

Financial Performance for FY2025

Sing Holdings delivered a blockbuster set of results for FY2025, driven primarily by the completion and handover of its North Gaia executive condominium project. Revenue rocketed to S\$878.4 million, a >1,000% increase over FY2024. This translated into a staggering 14-fold jump in profit attributable to shareholders, which soared to S\$142.3 million. Earnings per share also surged from 2.44 cents to 35.49 cents.

The strong performance was further supported by sales of five units at BizTech Centre and steady rental income from the Travelodge Docklands hotel in Melbourne.

Financial Position and Balance Sheet Strength

On the back of these record profits, equity attributable to shareholders increased 45% to S\$460.3 million. Net asset value per share climbed to 114.78 cents, up from 79.33 cents a year earlier. Notably, the group acquired two land parcels at Chuan Grove for S\$1.33 billion (65% stake), a transformative move for its development pipeline. As a result, net debt to equity ratio rose to 1.48x, reflecting the significant bank borrowings used to fund the acquisition, but the group’s properties largely secure these loans.

Massive Shareholder Return and Dividend Payout

Shareholders have been handsomely rewarded. For FY2025, the Board proposed a final dividend of 4.00 cents per share and a special dividend of 1.00 cent, both one-tier tax exempt, totaling 5.00 cents. Based on the recent share price of 84 cents, this represents a yield of 7.41%, a significant jump from previous years.

Over the past year, total shareholder return (share price appreciation plus dividend) reached 162%. Over three years, the return stood at 156%, underscoring the company’s strong track record of value creation.

Bonus Issue to Enhance Liquidity

In a move to reward shareholders and improve trading liquidity, the Board proposed a 1-for-4 bonus share issue, with the ex-date set for 12 May 2026. This is a price-sensitive development, as bonus issues typically increase the number of shares in issue, potentially enhancing liquidity and retail investor participation.

Strategic Development – Chuan Grove Project

The centerpiece of Sing Holdings’ future pipeline is the Chuan Grove residential project. The group committed S\$1.33 billion (S\$1,355 psf ppr) for two land parcels, securing a 99-year leasehold site with a combined area of 326,639 sq ft and GFA of 979,924 sq ft. The planned development may comprise five blocks housing 1,055 apartments, seven retail shops, a 1,000 sqm Early Childhood Development Centre, and one of Singapore’s most comprehensive communal facilities. Additionally, the project will feature a 10,000 sqm Neighbourhood Park linking to the Mei Hwan landed estate.

Key location advantages include proximity to Lorong Chuan MRT (250m), top local and international schools, major shopping malls, and expressways. Construction is scheduled to commence in 2H2026, with sales launch targeted for 1H2027. However, unlike North Gaia (where revenue was booked upon completion), revenue from Chuan Grove will be recognized progressively, which will lead to a substantial decrease in reported revenue and earnings for FY2026. This is a critical point for investors, as headline profits are expected to drop temporarily before recovering as the project progresses.

Other Assets: Stable Recurring Income

Travelodge Docklands (Melbourne, Australia): The hotel continued to generate stable recurring income, with occupancy rates at 69% (down slightly from 72%), but ADR rose to A\$175. RevPAR remained steady at A\$121. Market supply is expected to tighten from 2026, supporting future performance.

BizTech Centre (Aljunied, Singapore): The company owns 11 strata units (1,041 sqm) in this freehold light industrial building, with full occupancy.

Market Outlook and Strategic Focus

Management is confident about the Singapore property market’s resilience, given Singapore’s forecast GDP growth of 2-4% for 2026, strong non-oil domestic exports, low unemployment, and continued demand from new citizens and PRs. However, global headwinds—such as geopolitical tensions, trade tariffs, and higher interest rates—remain a concern.

The main focus for 2026 will be the Chuan Grove project. Management will also continue to evaluate other selective development opportunities and partnerships.

Share Price Performance

As of 22 April 2026, Sing Holdings’ share price closed at 84 cents, compared to 34 cents a year ago and 35.5 cents three years ago. This remarkable appreciation, combined with robust dividends and the upcoming bonus issue, marks Sing Holdings as an outperformer in the sector.

Investor Takeaways: Price-Sensitive Developments

• Record-breaking FY2025 profit and revenue, with extraordinary returns for shareholders.
• Proposed 1-for-4 bonus share issue is likely to boost market interest and trading volume.
• Chuan Grove acquisition and launch are transformative, but investors should be prepared for lower earnings in FY2026 due to revenue recognition timing.
• Dividend payout is at a multi-year high, with a yield of 7.41%.
