Century City International Holdings Limited provided earnings guidance for the year ended December 31, 2018. For the year, the company is expected to decrease by more than 50% as compared with that reported for the preceding year. The expected decrease in the profit for the year was principally due to the fact that in 2017, the Group recorded significantly larger fair value gains on its portfolio of investment properties as compared to those in the year under review and, as affected by the downturn of the debt and capital markets, particularly in the second half of the year, the Group incurred fair value losses in its financial assets investment business during the year, as opposed to a profit contribution in 2017.
