Genting oh Genting

No wonder Genting share price down down down today.

Malaysia's Genting Bhd said today its net profit for the third quarter ended September 30 fell 45 per cent to RM190.3 million from RM347.1 million the same quarter a year ago. The gaming-to-power group said the weaker performance stemmed mainly from impairment losses as well as higher depreciation costs. Genting said revenue dropped to RM1.943 billion from RM2.316 billion a year earlier. The company's shares closed 2 per cent lower at RM8.82 a share on Thursday, compared with the broader market's 0.05 per cent rise. - REUTERS
