Shimao's financial deficit escalated to 22.7 billion yuan (US$3.2 billion) in the first half of the year to June 30, a significant increase from 12 billion yuan the previous year, according to the company's recent stock exchange report on Thursday.

Meanwhile, Fantasia also experienced a financial setback, with a loss of 3.2 billion yuan compared to the 2.7 billion yuan loss from a year earlier.
