The company achieved better-than-expected margin on recognized sales of several development projects in China. Full-year dividends totaled HKD 1.10 per share, up 22% from a year ago with payout ratio higher at 43%. Net gearing rose to 30% due to two large landbank acquisitions in Hong Kong and Shenzhen. We make no change...
