Ocean Park announced its financial year results today (7th). As of the end of June this year, the loss during the 2021-2022 fiscal year reached HK$1.81 billion.
Ocean Park pointed out that the loss was mainly reflected in the book value of a one-off property, machinery and equipment and right-of-use asset impairment loss of HK$1.7647 billion, which did not affect cash flow.
However, Ocean Park's revenue increased by 15.6% year-on-year, the company's overall revenue increased by 38.5% year-on-year, and per capita income also increased by 21.2%. Taking into account the government's annual subsidies to the company, it recorded a total operating surplus of HK$436.2 million.
Huang Sihui, Chief Executive Officer of Ocean Park Corporation, said that in the face of macroeconomic uncertainty, unfavorable geopolitical developments, and the continued epidemic situation that has brought inbound tourism activities to a near standstill, the operating situation in the last financial year was extremely severe.
