PROPERTY and retail group Metro Holdings reported a second-quarter net profit of S$18.57 million, down nearly 70 per cent, due to a lower share of profits from associates and joint ventures.
This was despite a 22.3 per cent rise in revenue to S$38.31 million, thanks to higher turnover from its retail operations as its new store at Centrepoint started operations as well as from higher contributions from existing stores.
