    Revenue Streams

    Icon

    Property Sales Revenue

    The group earns substantial one-time income from sales of residential, office and industrial units; property sales made up about 62% of Sino Group's HKD 28.4 billion revenue in FY2024, so timing of project completions drives cash flow and margins.

    In 2025, planned launches in Hong Kong's Northern Metropolis-expected to deliver ~3,200 residential units-are forecast to boost property sales revenue materially, but outcomes hinge on market demand and interest-rate trends.

    Recurring Rental Income

    Recurring rental income comes from leasing Sino Group's investment properties-retail malls and office towers-delivering steady cash flow that covers operating costs and supports dividend payouts. By end-2025, rental revenue from prime retail sites recovered strongly, rising about 28% year-on-year to HKD 6.2 billion on rebounding tourism and local spending.

    Hospitality and Hotel Revenue

    Hospitality revenue comes from room nights, food & beverage, and corporate events; room revenue rose 18% in 2024 as occupancy recovered, and F&B/banquet sales grew 22% with higher MICE demand. The stream is travel-sensitive but strengthened after Sino Group expanded into Singapore in 2023; hospitality's share of group revenue increased to an estimated 27% in 2025 as international arrivals returned to 2019 levels.
