NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL RESULTS

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

The Company was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on 10 September 2014 as an exempted company with limited liability under the Companies Law, Chapter 22 (Law 3 of 1961, as consolidated and revised) of the Cayman Islands and its shares are listed on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange.

The address of the registered office of the Company is Cricket Square, Hutchins Drive, P.O. Box 2681, Grand Cayman, KY1-1111, the Cayman Islands. The address of the principal place of business of the Company is Office A, 31st Floor, Billion Plaza II, 10 Cheung Yue Street, Cheung Sha Wan, Kowloon, Hong Kong.

The Company is principally engaged in investment holding. The principal activities of its subsidiaries are the manufacturing and trading of electronic and electrical parts and components.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial results of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2018 are presented in HK$ which is the same as the functional currency of the Company.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial results of the Group for the Period have been prepared in accordance with the applicable disclosure requirements of the Listing Rules and the Hong Kong Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting issued by the HKICPA and under the historical cost convention.

The basis of preparation and accounting policies adopted in preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated financial results for the six months ended 30 June 2018 are consistent with those adopted in the preparation of the Group’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2017, except for the adoption of the new and revised HKFRSs. The Group has adopted new or revised HKFRSs which are effective for accounting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2018.

The impact of the adoption of HKFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers is disclosed below.

HKFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Presentation of liabilities related to contracts with customers

The Group receives advanced receipts from customers prior to goods sold and recorded such advanced receipts in other payables. The adoption of HKFRS 15 resulted in the presentation of the receipts in advance under other payables renamed as contract liabilities to be consistent with the terminology used under HKFRS 15.

Other than discussed above, the adoption of HKFRS 15 did not result in any material impact to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group as the timing of revenue recognition on sales of products is not changed.

Except as described above, the adoption of the new and revised HKFRSs did not have any significant effect on these unaudited condensed consolidated financial results.

6

The Group has not early adopted any new and revised HKFRSs that have been issued but are not yet effective.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial results have not been audited nor reviewed by the auditor of the Company, but have been reviewed by the audit committee of the Company.

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial results in conformity with HKFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires the management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies.

  • (i) Manufacturing segment engages in selling of electronic and electrical parts and components manufactured by the Group.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Business review

The Group is principally engaged in the assembly, packaging and sales of its self-manufactured discrete semiconductors and trading of semiconductors sourced from third-party suppliers.

The scale of the Group’s manufacturing business for the first half of 2018 has demonstrated an increase of approximately 6.0% as compared to the corresponding period in the last year, as brought by the expansion of the Group’s existing production lines for its DFN0603 and DFN1006 packages. As the Group’s manufacturing business continues to grow, its turnover derived from sales of its selfmanufactured products during the Period demonstrated an increase as compared to the same period of last year.

In addition to its manufacturing business, the Group continues to operate its trading business during the Period, primarily to supplement its sales of self-manufactured products. The Group acts as a solution kits integrator and is engaged in trading of semiconductors that its customers specifically require which, however, are not manufactured by the Group. The product mix required by customers varies from time to time and the Group’s trading segment for the Period achieved a significant increase in turnover of approximately 98.0% together with a segment profit improvement of approximately 78.3% as compared to the corresponding period in the last year.

During the Period, the Group continued its ongoing efforts in research and development (“R&D”) and innovations. During the Period, the Group registered six patent rights in the PRC in respect of its process innovation and product innovation. Also, the PRC Subsidiary was granted the status of High and NewTechnology Enterprise by the local tax authorities and is entitled to a reduced PRC Enterprise Income Tax rate at 15% for three years from 2018.

The number of the Group’s customers increased from 134 as at 30 June 2017 to 150 as at 30 June 2018.

Financial review

Turnover

The turnover of the Group amounted to approximately HK$178.4 million for the Period, representing an increase of approximately HK$36.2 million or 25.5% from approximately HK$142.2 million for the same period of last year. Such increase was mainly attributable to the significant increase in the Group’s trading business during the Period as a result of its continuous effort in expanding its customer base.

14

The turnover derived from sales of its self-manufactured products demonstrated a growth of approximately 6.0% during the Period as compared to the same period of last year. The production volume of the Group’s manufacturing segment witnessed an overall growth during the Period as compared to the same period of last year.

The Group’s trading of electronic and electrical parts and components primarily complements sales of self-manufactured products when it provides solution kits services to its customers. The turnover derived from the Group’s trading business increased by approximately 98.0% during the Period as compared to the same period of last year primarily as a result of the widening of the Group‘s customer base and the changes in product mix as required by its customers from time to time.

Gross profit and gross profit margin

Along with the increase in the Group’s turnover during the Period, the Group’s gross profit amounted to approximately HK$52.3 million for the Period, representing an increase of approximately HK$6.9 million or 15.2% from approximately HK$45.4 million for the same period of last year. The Group’s gross profit margin for the Period was approximately 29.3%, a decrease as compared with the gross profit margin of approximately 31.9% for the same period of last year. Such decrease was primarily the result of sales of varying types and volumes of self-manufactured and trading products (which carry different gross profit margins) sold by the Group to the customers and also the proportionately higher cost of inventory sold during the Period due to an increase in costs of inventory.

Profit before tax

The Group’s selling and distribution costs for the Period amounted to approximately HK$6.9 million, which represented an increase of approximately 50.0% from that for the same period of last year. Such increase was primarily attributable to the increased commission paid to third-party agent, which was in line with the growth of the Group’s sales to customers referred by its third-party agent. The Group’s administrative expenses increased by approximately 38.0%, or HK$5.4 million as compared to approximately HK$14.2 million for the same period of last year, primarily reflecting an increase in R&D expenses. As a result, the Group’s profit before tax increased by approximately HK$1.1 million or 4.1% to approximately HK$27.7 million for the Period from approximately HK$26.6 million for the same period of last year.

Income tax expenses

The Group’s income tax expenses for the Period was approximately HK$5.0 million, which represented a decrease of approximately 12.3%, or HK$0.7 million from approximately HK$5.7 million for the same period of last year, as a result of the PRC subsidiary of the Group’s entitlement of a reduction in the PRC Enterprise Income Tax rate at 15% for three years from 2018.

Profit for the Period and total comprehensive income attributable to owners of the Company

The Group’s profit for the Period amounted to approximately HK$22.7 million, representing an increase by approximately 8.1%, or HK$1.7 million as compared to approximately HK$21.0 million for the same period of last year, which was in line with the Group’s increased turnover during the Period.

Net profit margin for the Period is calculated by dividing the profit for the Period by the turnover for the Period. The Group’s net profit margin for the Period was approximately 12.7% as compared to approximately 14.8% for the same period of last year. The decrease in net profit margin was primarily attributable to the decrease in the Group’s gross profit margin and increase in the Group’s selling and distribution costs and its administrative expenses.

As a result of the foregoing, and exchange differences recorded by the Group during the Period, the Group’s total comprehensive income attributable to owners of the Company for the Period amounted to approximately HK$21.5 million, representing a decrease of approximately HK$3.9 million or 15.4% from approximately HK$25.4 million for the same period of last year.

DIVIDENDS

The Board does not recommend the payment of any interim dividend for the six months ended 30 June 2018. During the six months ended 30 June 2017, no interim dividend was paid or declared.

BUSINESS PROSPECT

As discussed above, the Group will continue its effort in the manufacturing and trading of discrete semiconductors business. As indicated by the significant increase in the trading business during the Period and in face of the demand for certain products, the Group recognises the need to evaluate the development of production lines for the manufacturing of new products in order to strengthen its customer base and profitability. To be competitive, the Group will also need to continue to upgrade its production facilities for maintaining quality products in order to satisfy increased customers’ demand.

However, in view of the current global trade tariff dispute, the Group believes the issue will not be resolved in a short period of time, and the Group’s turnover in the second half of the year 2018 could be adversely affected. The Group will closely monitor its business in face of uncertainties in the industry landscape and will be cautious by implementing stringent control on the labour costs and material costs. As disclosed in the Company’s circular dated 18 May 2018, the management is also reviewing and evaluating the Group’s business operations and financial position with a view to formulating sustainable business plan and strategies for the Group.
