CapitaLand Investment Earnings Call Transcripts
Fiscal Year 2025

Core operating profit grew 6% year-on-year, driven by record fundraising, strong fee growth, and robust listed/private fund performance. China asset write-downs and divestments weighed on total profit, but recurring fee income and cash flow remain strong. Outlook is for continued mid-single-digit profit growth and accelerated asset-light transformation.
