MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

FINANCIAL REVIEW

During the year ended 31 March 2021, the Group recorded a turnover of HK$365,837,000 (2020: HK$450,800,000), a decrease of approximately 18.8% from the previous financial year. The decrease in turnover was mainly attributable to the decrease in demand from our overseas customers, especially U.S.A., France, China and Russia. However, the year of 2020 witnessed the rare pandemic in human history. Almost every part of the world has been affected by COVID-19 one after another and the pandemic is still menacing. Because of different political, economic and social environment, countries are not doing equally well in fighting against the pandemic, which directly dampened the demand for electrical haircare appliances in the world-wide market, thereby affecting the Group’s sales.

During the financial year, the Group reported a gross profit of HK$31,387,000 (2020: HK$28,722,000), representing a gross profit margin of approximately 8.6% (2020: 6.4%). The increase was mainly due to the increased sales of high-end products during the year, which drove gross profit margin upwards.

The Group recorded continuous loss for the years ended 31 March 2021 and 2020. The management of the Group concluded there was impairment indication and conducted a review of the recoverable amount of the property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets and determined the recoverable amount of these assets. Based on the result of the assessment, management of the Group determined that the recoverable amounts of these assets were lower than their carrying amounts. An impairment loss of HK$2,658,000 on property, plant and equipment (2020: an impairment loss of HK$5,632,000 on property, plant and equipment and an impairment loss of HK$2,708,000 on right-of-use assets) had been recognised.

As a result of the above factors, loss before taxation for the year ended 31 March 2021 was HK$24,328,000 (2020: HK$40,079,000), representing a decrease of 39.3% against the previous financial year. Expressed proportionately as a percentage of revenue, distribution costs and administrative expenses were about 2.1% and 12.2% respectively for the year ended 31 March 2021 as compared to 1.5% and 12.8% in the last corresponding year. In dollars term, administrative expenses was HK$44,568,000, representing a decrease of 22.7% when compared to that in the previous financial year. Such decrease was caused by decreased staff salaries and legal and professional fee. Besides, the Group received government grant of HK$1,536,000 under the Employment Support Scheme, an anti-epidemic fund.

Loss for the year was HK$24,428,000, representing a decrease of 39.0% when compared to loss of HK$40,071,000 in the last financial year.

Basic loss per share for the year amounted to HK5.48 cents, representing a decrease of 39.0% when compared to loss of HK8.99 cents in the last financial year.

During the year ended 31 March 2021, no dividend was declared and paid (2020: Nil).

BUSINESS REVIEW

Market Review

During the first half of 2020, the outbreak of COVID-19 and its escalation on a global scale had triggered unprecedented disruptions to the economy and business operations nationwide. The Group inevitably felt the severe impact of a much weakened North America and Mainland China economy resulted from the COVID-19 outbreak amid the ongoing US-China trade friction. The Group’s business gradually picked up in the second half of the year, but the recovery of many SMEs in China including the Group lagged behind the recovery speed of the overall economy. As a result and on an annual basis, the Group recorded significantly lower revenue by 18.8% as compared to that of last year.

Even though the turnover contribution from the Asian market slightly increased to 40.9% during this financial year from 39.2% in the last financial year, the turnover contribution from Mainland China decreased to 4.9% in this financial year from 8.8% in the last financial year. Nevertheless, as some new models had been launched to the Japanese market during the year, the turnover contributions from the Japanese market had increased to 19.0% for this financial year compared to 15.5% in the last financial year.

Most of the Group’s customers are famous global brands. Our five major customers accounted for approximately 80.5% and 87.1% of the Group’s total turnover in the current financial year and the previous financial year, respectively.

Operation Review

The operating environment was still very tough for all PRC based manufacturers. During the financial year, the Group had faced various operating challenges similar to those of other manufacturers in the Mainland China, such as the rise of raw material cost caused by the Chinese government continuing to promote economic and environmental development reforms and strictly implement environmental protection regulations. This has led to a tightened supply of both imported and domestically produced waste paper, which caused the average price of raw paper remaining high during the year.

Despite of the intensified competition and higher raw material cost, the Group pursued relentlessly strict controls over materials purchase cost, rational investment in machinery and manpower and rigorous product quality control so as to boost production capacity and efficiency and alleviate the pressure from shortage of production line workers, eliminate wastes and ultimately reduce costs. Consequently, the variable cost had decreased significantly during the year.

As always, the Group had exerted extra efforts in improving the competitiveness of its high quality products together with bolstering its R&D capabilities with an aim to enhancing its market share and achieving a long term relationship with its customers.

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL RESOURCES

As at 31 March 2021, the Group had approximately HK$27,987,000 cash and bank deposits (2020: HK$31,060,000). The decrease in cash and bank deposits was mainly attributable to repayment of bank borrowings. Its net current assets as at 31 March 2021 amounted to approximately HK$1,741,000 (2020: HK$20,293,000). Current ratio of the Group as at 31 March 2021 was 1.0 (2020: 1.1).

As at 31 March 2021, the Group had aggregate banking facilities of HK$83,400,000 (2020: HK$93,400,000), of which HK$31,461,000 (2020: HK$51,211,000) had been used. The borrowings comprised trade finance facilities of HK$31,461,000 (2020: HK$51,211,000). The borrowings due within one year amounted to HK$31,461,000 (2020: HK$51,211,000). The bank borrowings carried interest rates ranging from HIBOR/LIBOR plus 1.8% to 2.0% (2020: 1.8% to 2.0%) or 1% (2020: 1%) below Prime Rate.

As at 31 March 2021, the Group’s net gearing ratio was approximately 4.0% (2020: 20.6%). This was calculated by dividing the net amount of borrowings (including bank borrowings after deduction of cash and cash equivalents) by total equity attributable to owners of the Company as at 31 March 2021.

The Group has adopted a prudent financial and surplus funds management approach towards its treasury policies and thus maintained a healthy liquidity position throughout the year ended 31 March 2021. To manage liquidity risk, the Board closely monitors the Group’s liquidity position to ensure that the sufficient financial resources are available in order to meet its funding requirements and commitment timely.

CHARGES ON ASSETS

The Group had no charges on assets as at 31 March 2021 (2020: Nil).

FOREIGN EXCHANGE EXPOSURE

The Group’s consolidated financial statements are presented in Hong Kong dollars. The Group conducts business transactions mainly in Hong Kong dollars, United States dollars and Renminbi. As the Hong Kong dollar remains pegged to the United States dollar, there has been no material exchange risk in this respect. To manage fluctuation of the Renminbi, the Group has been able to hedge Renminbi receipts and Renminbi payments on an ongoing basis with revenue generated in Mainland China. All of the Group’s bank loan facilities are denominated in Hong Kong dollars and carry interest at floating rates.

CONTRACTUAL AND CAPITAL COMMITMENTS

As at 31 March 2021, the Group had capital commitments of HK$823,000 (2020: HK$1,065,000).

– 12 –

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

EMPLOYMENT AND REMUNERATION POLICIES

As at 31 March 2021, the Group had a total workforce of 1,223 (2020: 1,513) including 28 employees (2020: 27) in Hong Kong. Employee costs, including directors’ emoluments, amounted to HK$106,334,000 for the year ended 31 March 2021 (2020: HK$137,294,000). The Group’s remuneration policy is underscored by the principle of awarding equitable packages to employees, incentive-based where applicable, with remunerations being performance-oriented and market-competitive. Remuneration packages are normally reviewed on a regular basis. Apart from salary payments, the Group offers other staff benefits including share option schemes, performance-based bonuses, provident fund contributions and medical insurance coverage.

PROSPECTS

With reference to the existing principal haircare appliances businesses, the Group anticipates that the business will be confronted with several key challenges. These include sluggish demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the pressure from customers to lower its selling price, a shortage of skilled labour in Mainland China, the shorter product life cycles of consumer electronic products as well as volatile capital markets and currency fluctuations. At the same time, the predictability of future sales orders received is comparatively low which presents difficulties in planning the allocation of resources.

Looking ahead, it is expected that the COVID-19 and the Sino-US trade war will continue to pose challenges to all industries. Although the Group are facing unpredictable challenges and uncertainties, we remain optimistic towards our business development in medium and long run. In terms of market demand, as the COVID-19 vaccination rate worldwide is increasing, many countries are loosening business and social activities restrictions. Hopefully, it will lead to a rapid economic recovery and resume a higher demand for our products. Simultaneously, the Group will monitor the business operations, control and reduce unnecessary expenses so as to save costs.

The Group will continue to explore opportunities, to expand and diversify its business and activities, with a view to create new sources of income and to maximise the return to the Company and its shareholders in the long run.
