SINGAPORE (THE BUSINESS TIMES) - The following companies saw new developments that may affect trading of their securities on Monday (July 6):

CapitaLand: CapitaLand on Monday said it expects the group's total profit after tax and minority interests for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to be "materially and adversely" impacted, based on preliminary estimates. The counter closed at $3.04 on Friday, up $0.03 or 1 per cent on a cum-dividend basis.

Japfa: Agri-food company Japfa on Friday closed the sale of a 25 per cent stake in AustAsia Investment Holdings, which operates the group's dairy farming business in China, to Japan's Meiji. Japfa shares fell one cent or 1.5 per cent to close at 66.5 cents on Friday, before the announcement.

Accordia Golf Trust (AGT): The price offered by AGT's sponsor to buy over the trust's golf courses is too low, as these assets generate "significantly attractive cash flow", AGT's largest minority unitholder, Hibiki Path Advisors, argued in an open letter. AGT units closed unchanged at $0.69 on Friday.
