Revenue amounted to <span class=\"xn-money\">HK$9<\/span>.476\u00a0billion, representing a year-on-year decrease of 8.6%. Profit attributable to owners of the Company was <span class=\"xn-money\">HK$1<\/span>.042\u00a0billion, down 13.2% year-on-year. The decline in revenue and profit was mainly due to\u00a0a reduction in sales recognized upon delivery in the real estate business compared to the same period last year, as well as substantial provisions for property\u00a0inventory write-downs and the decrease in fair value of investment properties. The Board has declared an interim dividend of HK42 cents per share, representing a payout ratio of 43.8%, as a gesture of appreciation for shareholders&#8217; long-term

The decline in revenue was primarily\u00a0due to newly secured construction projects not yet commencing, resulting in a significant drop\u00a0in\u00a0construction revenue.

In the second half of the year, while adhering to a prudent operating philosophy, the Group will remain committed to an innovation-driven development strategy. On the one hand, we will accelerate the transformation and upgrading of our core businesses and deepen the integration of finance and industry; on the other, we will strengthen our comprehensive risk management system and enhance profitability. In the infrastructure and environmental protection business, SIIC Environment will continue to optimize its business layout, expand market share, and consolidate its leading position in <span class=\"xn-location\">China&#8217;s<\/span> water services and environmental protection industries. The toll road business will further improve operational efficiency and maintain stable development. Investments in the comprehensive healthcare and new arenas business \u2014 particularly in the pharmaceutical, healthcare, and green energy sectors \u2014 will contribute new growth to the Group. In the real estate business, we will closely monitor industry policy developments, revitalize existing assets, and accelerate the sell-through of inventory. With the gradual effects of the central government&#8217;s economic-stabilization policies expected to emerge, we anticipate marginal improvement in the property sector. While ensuring prudent operations, we will actively seize opportunities from a market recovery to improve operating results. <span class=\"xn-person\">Nanyang Tobacco<\/span> will continue to implement its high-quality development strategy, accelerate the application of smart technologies, and ensure steady and sustainable long-term growth.

Profit attributable to owners of the Group was <span class=\"xn-money\">HK$1.042 billion<\/span>, down 13.2% year-on-year. The decline in revenue and profit was primarily due to a reduction\u00a0in sales recognized upon delivery in the real estate business compared with the same period last year, as well as substantial provisions for real estate inventory write-downs and the decrease in fair value of investment properties.<\/p>\n<p>During the period, profit from the infrastructure and environmental protection business decreased by 11.6% year-on-year to <span class=\"xn-money\">HK$933 million<\/span>, accounting for approximately 92.2% of the Group&#8217;s Net Business Profit.

The decline in revenue was primarily\u00a0due to newly secured construction projects not yet commencing, resulting in a significant drop\u00a0in\u00a0construction revenue.
