UNDERLYING profit for supermarket and convenience store retailer Dairy Farm International rose 5.4 per cent to US$176.6 million for the half-year ended June 30, from a restated US$167.5 million a year ago. The accounts were restated due to changes in accounting policies.

The group's results were boosted by improved profit margins at Shanghai-listed hypermarket and supermarket operator Yonghui, the deconsolidation of its associate business Yunchuang, and the additional profit contribution from investment in the Robinsons Retail business in the Philippines.
