Losses at the company behind the transformation of Wembley Park in London were slashed by more than £600m during its latest financial year, it has been revealed.
Quintain has posted a pre-tax loss of £109.5m for 2024, new accounts filed with Companies House show.
The loss is down significantly from the £721.7m pre-tax loss it raked up in 2023.
The Wembley Park developer last made a pre-tax profit when it reported a total of £139.7m in 2022.
The company said the fall in its losses was “driven by the profit on sale of stabilised assets and a lower revaluation deficit for the year on the retained assets”.
The latest set of accounts also show that the firm’s revenue fell from £123.5m to £111.3m in 2024.
Wembley Park includes the London Designer Outlet, Brent Civic Centre, Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre, Boxpark Wembley, a range of independent retailers as well as 5,176 new homes – 3651 of which are under Quintain Living management.
When the Wembley Park project is complete, more than 8,500 homes will have been created, a third of which will be classed as affordable.
There will also be 633,000 sq ft of offices and retail space, creating more than 8,640 jobs.
