Shares of NagaCorp Ltd. (HKG:03918), the casino resort operator, plunged nearly 12% during intraday trading on Monday after the company issued a profit warning for the first half of 2023 and announced a significant impairment charge related to its Vladivostok Project.
In a filing with the Hong Kong stock exchange, NagaCorp stated that it expects to either book a net profit of around $3.1 million or a net loss of $6.9 million for the six months ended June 30. This is a significant decline compared to the profit of approximately $83.0 million reported in the same period last year.
The company attributed the expected lower profit or potential loss to an impairment charge of approximately $85 million to $95 million for its Vladivostok Project. This impairment charge appears to be a major factor contributing to the sharp decline in NagaCorp's stock price, which fell by nearly 12% during intraday trading on Monday.
