CEO MESSAGE
Dear Shareholders,
It is a great pleasure that I share with you the interim financial statements of Colombo Land and
Development Company PLC for the quarter ended 31st March 2024. Overall, the Group recorded a
Revenue of Rs. 106 Mn (YoY 22%), a Gross Profit of Rs. 65 Mn (YoY 21%) and a loss before tax of
Rs. 13 Mn (reduction of YoY 74%) for the quarter ended 31st March 2024.
Rental Income
Overall rental income increased by 28% compared to the corresponding quarter. The occupancy
during this period stood at 86% compared to 76% in 2023.
The revenue from Car Parks during this period increased by 12% when compared to the corresponing
quarter. The average monthly revenue of the Gas Land car park increased by 18%, People's Park car
park by 1% and Liberty Plaza car park by 9% during the quarter under review.
Finance Expenses
We saw an 36% decrease in the finance cost due to the decrease in lending rates for the quarter under
review. The company has already taken several steps in this regard to reduce the interest costs.
Future Outlook
We expect retail activity to further increase due to the strengthening of LKR thereby, reducing the
cost of imported products which will drive consumer demand. The expected higher business genera-
tion by our tenants will enable us to increase rentals and drive higher occupancy in the coming
months. Our objective is to continue cutting our financial expenses by securing more favourable
terms from banks. Furthermore, we plan to deploy diverse strategies to lessen the capital portion of
our loans, thereby bolstering our business.
P.S. Weerasekera
Director/ Group CEO
