Keppel Land Says Q3 Net Profit Doubles to $82m

Source : The Business Times, October 23, 2007

Keppel Land, Singapore's third-largest property developer by market value, said on Tuesday its third-quarter net profit more than doubled on strong luxury home sales and higher office rents.

The firm, partly owned by conglomerate Keppel Corp, said it earned a net profit of $81.8 million (US$55.8 million) in the July-to-September quarter this year, up from $38.5 million in the same period last year.

Like rival developers CapitaLand and City Developments , Keppel Land has benefited from Singapore's resurgent property market, which has seen luxury apartments sold at record prices.
