(Reuters) - Country Garden Services, the property services arm of Chinese property developer Country Garden, said on Wednesday it agreed to sell its 1.49% stake in Zhuhai Wanda Commercial Management for 3.14 billion yuan ($446.54 million).
The sale allows the company to streamline its investments, recover capital, and refocus on its core business operations as part of its planned exit strategy, it said.
Once a top developer by sales, Country Garden is undergoing an offshore debt restructuring after defaulting on its $11 billion offshore bonds last year.
The beleaguered company also reported a drop of more than 38% in its first-half profit for 2024.
