    GLOBAL Logistic Properties (GLP) on Friday reported that its net profit for the fiscal first quarter to June 2016 fell 24.3 per cent to US$202.9 million.

    This was due to US$36 million of foreign exchange losses over the yen and yuan, but it stressed that most of this was actually unrealised accounting losses resulting from marking inter-company forex loans to market.
