Property developer Sunac China warns of wider loss for 2024
Beijing-based Sunac, once among China's largest real estate developers, attributed the higher net loss forecast to the absence of gains that it had logged last year after the completion of its offshore debt restructuring. In late 2023, Sunac completed a comprehensive overhaul of its $9 billion offshore debt, exchanging its existing debt for a combination of notes, among others. The company has borne the brunt of a struggling property sector in the world's second-largest economy, which has led to decreased real-estate project deliveries, and as a result, lower earnings for developers, while they battle to revive their businesses.
