That compares to a HK$58.7m (US$7.54m) profit a year earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company attributed the anticipated losses to h<strong>igher administrative expenses<\/strong> and the a<strong>bsence of impairment reversals<\/strong>. In 2023, a reversal of impairment losses on loans and amounts due from a joint venture amounted to HK$412.5m, while the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LET Group recorded a share of profit from a joint venture totalling HK$956.8m (up from HK$112.3m in 2023), reversing prior losses, and a HK$723.1m gain from the realisation of assets and liabilities before the voluntary dissolution of the joint venture. Following the dissolution in December, a non-cash loss of approximately HK$732.8m was recorded due to the derecognition of investment cost and carrying amount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2023, the company saw a one-off HK$98.4m gain from early loan repayments and a HK$39.7m gain from forfeited property deposits, neither of which occurred this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LET Group confirmed that trading in its shares will remain suspended until it has met all resumption guidance.
