Other Income And Gains

Other income decreased from US$37.5 million for the comparable period in 2024 to US$15.7 million for the current period, mainly due to the disposal of the entire equity interests in certain of the Company’s subsidiaries engaging in non-core business during 2024.

Other Operating Expenses

Other operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 increased by 22.4% as compared to the same period in prior year to US$20.6 million, primarily attributable to an increase in the Company’s hotels’ depreciation charges and other operating costs recognized from the Company’s hotels in line with the increase in revenue generated from the Company’s hotel operation, as well as the capital expenditures required to launch the Company’s L’Officiel Coffee in Japan.
