China Aoyuan Group Limited provided unaudited consolidated earnings guidance for the year ended December 31, 2018. For the period, the company expects to record an increase of over 40% in the core net profit (excluding non-recurring gains or losses such as fair value gain on investment properties, net exchange difference and gain on change in fair value of derivative financial instruments) as compared to that for the year ended 31 December 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to the improvements in the Group's total gross floor area delivered to buyers and the average selling price of properties delivered in the year ended 31 December 2018.
