Cheung Kong Infrastructure Holdings (01038) said its profit attributable to shareholders for the six months ended 30 June 2015 dropped 78.2% year-on-year to HK$5,253 million.
The basic earnings per share were HK$2.1.
Total turnover amounted to HK$14,114 million, an increase of 2.4% from a year earlier.
The decline in profit was due to the one-off gain of about HK$19 billion recorded from the spin-off of the Hong Kong operations of Power Assets (00006) into HK Electric Investments (HKEI) (02638) during the same period last year, and the accounting losses incurred from CKI and Power Assets' sale of HKEI shares in June this year. Excluding these two one-off items, CKI's profitability in the first half of 2015 has increased about 22%.
The proposed interim dividend is HK$0.6 (2014: HK$0.525) per share, payable on 4 September.
