NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 31 MARCH 2017

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION

O Luxe Holdings Limited (“Company”) was incorporated in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability and its shares are listed on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”).

The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”) is Hong Kong dollars (“HK$”) and for those subsidiaries established in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) and Italy are Renminbi (“RMB”) and Euro respectively. The condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in Hong Kong dollars (“HK$”) for the convenience of users of the condensed consolidated financial statements as the Company is listed in Hong Kong.

The Company is principally engaged in investment holding and the principal activities of its subsidiaries are exports and domestic trading, retail and wholesale of jewellery products and watches, money lending, securities investments, property investment and mining.

These interim financial information for the six months ended 31 March 2017 was approved by the Board of Directors on 19 May 2017.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the applicable disclosure requirements of Appendix 16 to the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange (the “Listing Rules”) and with Hong Kong Accounting Standard (“HKAS”) 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the “HKICPA”).

The directors regard the liquidation of Omas SRL as discontinued operations and presented in accordance with HKFRS 5 in this Interim Financial Information.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value as appropriate. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.

– 5 –

Except for the Group has applied the following new and revised standards, amendments and interpretations (“new and revised HKFRSs”) issued by HKICPA, which are mandatory for the accounting periods beginning on or after 1 October 2014, the accounting policies and methods of computation used in the preparation of these accounts are consistent with those used in the annual accounts for the year ended 30 September 2016.

HKFRSs (Amendments) Annual Improvements 2010–2014 Cycle Amendments to HKAS 1 Disclosure Initiative Amendments to HKAS 16 and Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation HKAS 38 and Amortisation

Amendments to HKAS 1 — Disclosure Initiative

The amendments are designed to encourage entities to use judgement in the application of HKAS 1 when considering the layout and content of their financial statements.

Included in the clarifications is that an entity’s share of other comprehensive income from equity accounted interests in associates and joint ventures is split between those items that will and will not be reclassified to profit or loss, and presented in aggregate as a single line item within those two groups.

The adoption of the amendments has no significant impact on the Group’s financial statements.

Amendments to HKAS 16 and HKAS 38 — Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation

The amendments to HKAS 16 prohibit the use of a revenue-based depreciation method for items of property, plant and equipment. The amendments to HKAS 38 introduce a rebuttable presumption that amortisation based on revenue is not appropriate for intangible assets. This presumption can be rebutted if either the intangible asset is expressed as a measure of revenue or revenue and the consumption of the economic benefits of the intangible asset are highly correlated. The amendments are applied prospectively.

The adoption of the amendments has no impact on the Group’s financial statements as the Group has not previously used revenue-based depreciation methods.

The following new/revised HKFRSs, potentially relevant to the Group’s financial statements, have been issued, but are not yet effective and have not been early adopted by the Group. The Group’s current intention is to apply these changes on the date they become effective.

Amendments to HKAS 7 Disclosure Initiative[1] Amendments to HKAS 12 Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealised Losses[1] Amendments to HKFRS 2 Classification and Measurement of Share-Based Payment Transactions[2] HKFRS 9 Financial Instrument[2] HKFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers[2] Amendments to HKFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Clarifications to HKFRS 15)[2] HKFRS 16 Leases[3]

  • 1 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017 2 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 3 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019

4. RESTATEMENT OF COMPARATIVE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTH PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2016

In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 31 March 2017, the Group identified prior period adjustments regarding the loss on deconsolidation of a subsidiary, Omas SRL (“Omas”), in the previously issued condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 31 March 2016.

Consequently, the Company’s consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity, and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended 31 March 2016 and certain explanatory notes have been restated to reflect this adjustment relating to the loss of deconsolidation of a subsidiary on 1 December 2015, the date on which the control of Omas was lost.

Impact on the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the six months ended 31 March 2016:

Notes: The fair value of the contingent consideration receivable is related to the acquisition of Sinoforce Group Limited (“Sinoforce Group”) and its former owner’s profit guarantee of HK$69,000,000 for Sinoforce Group’s three financial years ending 31 December 2015, 2016 and 2017.

The fair value of the contingent consideration receivable at 31 March 2017 and 30 September 2016 are based on the valuations performed by Grant Sherman, using a Monte Carlo simulation.

– 15 –

As the profit guarantee relating to the acquisition of Sinoforce Group, covers period of more than one year, hence there are more interactions to be assessed for the results. Monte Carlo simulation is therefore adopted as the simulation produces distribution of possible outcome values. By assuming probability distributions, variables can have different probabilities of different outcomes occurring. Probability distributions are a much more realistic way of describing uncertainty in variables of the result.

The variable and assumptions used in computing the fair value of the contingent consideration receivable are based on the management’s best estimate. The value of the contingent consideration receivable varies with different variables of certain subjective assumptions.

24. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS RECOGNISED IN THE CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:

  • the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities with standard terms and conditions and traded in active liquid markets are determined with reference to quoted market bid prices and ask prices, respectively;

  • the fair value of other financial assets and financial liabilities (excluding held-fortrading investments) is determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis using prices from observable current market transactions and dealer quotes for similar instruments; and

  • the fair value of held-for-trading investments is calculated using quoted prices. Where such prices are not available, the fair value is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis and the applicable curve for the duration of the instruments. For contingent consideration receivable, the fair value is estimated using a probability model.

The directors of the Company consider that the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded at amortised cost in the consolidated financial statements approximate to their fair values due to their short-term maturities.

The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable.

– 23 –

  • Level 1

  • fair value measurement are those derived from quoted price (unadjusted) in active market for identical assets or liabilities.

  • Level 2 — fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

  • Level 3 — fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
