Country Garden (COGARD) reported an H1 loss of RMB 19.1bn ($2.7bn), 49% worse than the previous year. It said that the losses primarily came from declines in home settlements and suppressed gross margins. COGARD is currently undergoing its debt restructuring talks. Recently, the developer said that a key group of bank creditors, which collectively hold 49% of its existing offshore debt, have agreed towards its debt restructuring. Its dollar bonds are trading stable, albeit at deeply distressed levels of 8 cents on the dollar.
