While discussions are ongoing there is no certainty that any transaction will take place, it added.

For its full year, it sank into the red with a net loss of S$1.8 million, as compared to a S$2 million net profit previously. The losses came amid F&amp;B industry woes as the group said it faced headwinds from a subdued economic outlook and softer consumer sentiment. The counter ended Friday unchanged S$0.085 before the announcement.  </p><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/D01.SI\">DFI</a>:</strong> The company said on Friday (May 30) it has divested 22.2 per cent, or about 315.3 million shares in Robinsons Retail for an undisclosed sum. DFI became a significant minority shareholder in Robinsons Retail in 2018 through a share-for-share swap transaction involving Rustan Supercenters, an operator of food retail formats and supermarkets in the Philippines. Shares of DFI closed at US$2.76, up US$0.08 or 3 per cent on Friday, before the announcement.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VC2.SI\">Olam</a>:</strong> The agribusiness giant has secured a US$1.85 billion loan for general corporate purposes, said the company on Friday (May 30) via a bourse filing. The loan, which was taken by Olam Agri – the company’s food, feed and fibre operating group – has a three-year tenor and will be disbursed in two tranches. Shares of Olam closed 1.1 per cent, or S$0.01 higher at S$0.90 on Friday.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\"><strong><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/H07.SI\">Stamford Land</a>:</strong> The property company on Friday (May 30) reported a 14.2 per cent fall in net profit to S$17.6 million for its second half ended March, from S$20.6 million in the year-ago period. This came amid a 6.5 per cent decline in revenue, which came in at S$78.3 million as compared to S$83.8 million previously. Earnings per share stood at S$0.0119, down from S$0.0138. For the full year ended Mar 31, profit rose to S$32.8 million from S$5.9 million due to the absence of a fair value loss of S$81.5 million on investment property in the year ago period. The counter ended Friday flat at S$0.375 before the announcement.</p><p><strong><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/F9D.SI\">Boustead</a>:</strong> A joint venture of Boustead Projects’ wholly owned subsidiary was awarded a tender by JTC Corporation on Friday (May 30) to develop an industrial facility on a land parcel under the industrial government land sales programme.
