(a) Decline in profit of the Newspaper and Magazine business was mainly attributable to lower
advertisement revenue.
(b) Operating profit, before finance costs and fair value gain on investment properties, rose S$7.0m
(5.0%) to S$148.4m in line with higher revenue.
(c) Treasury performance, before including financing cost previously allocated to the Property segment
prior to REIT refinancing in July 2013, was lifted by increased dividend and interest income, higher
profit on sale of investments and lower impairment charges on portfolio investments.
(d) The Others segment turned into a profit with the gain on partial divestment of 701Search. In addition,
the local online classified, radio and exhibitions businesses registered better performance in the
financial year.
