HÀ NỘI – Property developer Vincom Retail JSC (HoSE: VRE) has reported its post-tax profit in the third quarter rose 29 per cent year-on-year to VNĐ717 billion.

However, the company recorded its revenue fell a quarter to VNĐ2.2 trillion in the third quarter from last year’s figure.

Q3 revenue fell because the company did not record the sale of any large-scale projects in the past quarter, it said in the statement on Monday.

Sales of property units dropped about 77 per cent year on year to only VNĐ339 billion in the last quarter.

Meanwhile, the lease of property units and services increased by 29.3 per cent compared to 2018 to VNĐ1.8 trillion, offsetting the drop in sales.

Its shares have lost about 12.6 per cent since its one-year high of around VNĐ37,300 per share.

According to the company, sales of property projects and services at Vinhomes Skylake, Vinhomes Ocean Park, Vinhomes Smart City and Vinhomes Star City contributed to the soaring earnings.

In the January-September period, Vinhomes recorded total revenue surged 68 per cent year-on-year to VNĐ37.6 trillion.

Financial revenue, which mainly comes from profit distributed from co-developed projects, fell to VNĐ7.7 trillion from VNĐ11 trillion recorded in last year’s nine months.
