CHARACTERISTICS OF THE GROWTH ENTERPRISE MARKET (“GEM”) OF THE STOCK EXCHANGE OF HONG KONG LIMITED (THE “STOCK EXCHANGE”)

GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate companies to which a higher investment risk may be attached than other companies listed on the Stock Exchange. Prospective investors should be aware of the potential risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after due and careful consideration. The greater risk profile and other characteristics of GEM mean that it is a market more suited to professional and other sophisticated investors.

Given the emerging nature of companies listed on GEM, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the Main Board and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

This report, for which the directors (the “Directors”) of ETS Group Limited (the “Company”) collectively and individually accept full responsibility, includes particulars given in compliance with the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the GEM of the Stock Exchange (the “GEM Listing Rules”) for the purpose of giving information with regard to the Company. The Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, confirm that to the best of their knowledge and belief the information contained in this report is accurate and complete in all material respects and not misleading or deceptive, and there are no other matters the omission of which would make any statement herein or this report misleading.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY

The Group’s total revenue for the nine months ended 30 September 2015 was approximately HK$106,437,000, representing a decrease of approximately 23% as compared with the total revenue of approximately HK$137,688,000 for the corresponding period in 2014.

Profit attributable to owners of the Company for the nine months ended 30 September 2015 was approximately HK$8,144,000, representing a decrease of approximately 50% as compared with the profit attributable to owners of the Company of approximately HK$16,209,000 for the corresponding period in 2014.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Change of Controlling Shareholder

Reference is made to (i) the announcement jointly issued by the Company and Million Top Enterprises Limited (the “Offeror”) dated 10 June 2015 in relation to, among other matters, the conditional purchase of 185,000,000 shares (the “Sale Shares”) with a par value of HK$0.01 each in the share capital of the Company (each, a “Share”) by the Offeror and the possible unconditional mandatory cash offer for all the issued Shares (other than those already owned by or agreed to be acquired by the Offeror and parties acting in concert with it) by Yu Ming Investment Management Limited on behalf of the Offeror (the “Offer”); (ii) the announcement jointly issued by the Company and the Offeror dated 21 July 2015 in relation to completion of the Sale and Purchase Agreement (as defined below) and the Offer; (iii) the composite offer and response document in respect of the offer (the “Composite Document”) jointly issued by the Company and the Offeror dated 28 July 2015; (iv) the announcement jointly issued by the Company and the Offeror dated 18 August 2015 in relation to, among other matters, the close of the Offer and the result of the Offer; and (v) the announcement of the Company dated 14 September 2015 in relation to the restoration of the public float of the Company.

On 5 June 2015 (after trading hours), the Offeror, Excel Deal Holdings Limited (“Vendor”), the then controlling shareholder of the Company, Mr. Tang Shing Bor, (“Offeror’s Guarantor”) and Mr. Ling Chiu Yum and Mr. Wong Wai Hon Telly (“Vendor’s Guarantors”) entered into a sale and purchase agreement (the “Sale and Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Offeror has conditionally agreed to acquire and the Vendor has conditionally agreed to sell the Sale Shares, being 185,000,000 Shares, for a total consideration of HK$222,000,000, equivalent to HK$1.2 per Sale Share (the “Acquisition”). The Sale Shares represent approximately 66.07% of the entire issued share capital of the Company as at 10 June 2015.

Completion of the Acquisition took place after the trading hours on 21 July 2015.

Following the close of the Offer on 18 August 2015 and completion of the disposition of 10,000 Shares by the Offeror on 15 September 2015, the Offeror and parties acting in concert with it hold a legal and beneficial interest in, and control voting rights in respect of, an aggregate of 210,000,000 Shares, representing 75% of the entire issued share capital of the Company.

THIRD QUARTERLY REPORT 2015

Business Review

The Group is continuously engaged in the business of providing comprehensive multimedia contact services and contact centre system in Hong Kong after the disposal of Elite Depot Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries (“PRC business units”) on 22 December 2014 (the “Disposal”). The principle activities of the Group include outsourcing inbound contact service, outsourcing outbound contact service, staff insourcing service and contact service centre facilities management service.

The situation and public sentiment for outbound telemarketing service in Hong Kong have taken a turn for the worse lately. With an increasing number of reported fraudulent telephone calls, recipients of telemarketing call become ever more cautious towards the call and making it even harder for caller to start the conversation or selling. Despite the Company does not perform cold calling, but rather calling the end customers on behalf of our corporate clients for different types of services, the overall sentiment of the public imposed difficulties on telemarketing and affected the results of the service.

To address the issue of fraudulent telephone calls, Hong Kong Monetary Authority (“HKMA”) put in more measures to protect the interests of the banks’ customers by announcing on August 31 2015 that all banks have to post the hotline numbers and relevant information on the websites of the individual retail banks, and there is a dedicated page newly set up on the websites of the HKMA and Hong Kong Association of Banks (“HKAB”) for easy access by the public. Callers from retail banks will, in addition to giving out their full names, have to provide their phone extension number, direct telephone number, or staff ID number as “identifying numbers” when contacting the public who may verify callers’ identity through the customer hotlines of the respective banks before proceeding any further. The management of the Company hopes that these additional measures can help to regain the confidence of the public and put genuine telemarketing services back on track.

Another challenge comes from call blocking apps which continued to throw obstacles in the way of outbound telemarketing service. The number of customers reached through mobile phones decreased as a result of the call blocking function and which in turn also affected the success of the service. The management of the Company continued to provide comprehensive training to improve the marketing skills of the contact centre agents and enhance their awareness on the compliance requirements from the authorities.

Pursuant to the appointment of the new Directors with effect from 29 July 2015, the Company believes that the rich management experience as well as diversified business network of the newly appointed Directors could bring benefits to the Company in the future. To better evaluate and more effectively manage the business risks of the Company, the Board reformed the internal control committee to risk management and internal control committee which comprises three independent non-executive Directors and two executive Directors on 5 November 2015.

Financial Review

Subsequent to the Disposal, both of the revenue and the operating costs decreased as compare with the corresponding period in 2014. Besides, the financial performance of the Company was affected by the challenging business environment as stated in the business review section in this report. For the nine months ended 30 September 2015, the Group’s unaudited total revenue was approximately HK$106.4 million, representing a decrease of approximately HK$31.3 million as compared with the total revenue of the corresponding period in 2014 (2014: approximately HK$137.7 million). The outsourcing inbound contact service, outsourcing outbound contact service, staff insourcing service, contact service centre facilities management service and other services accounted for approximately 9%, 42%, 22%, 20% and 7% of the Group’s unaudited total revenue for the nine months ended 30 September 2015 respectively.

The unaudited employee benefits expenses decreased from approximately HK$75.1 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2014 to approximately HK$59.4 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2015. The drop of the employee benefits expenses was mainly attributable to headcount saving resulted from the Disposal despite the increased employee benefits expenses incurred for operating the business units in Hong Kong. The unaudited other operating expenses decreased by approximately HK$5.7 million from approximately HK$35.8 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2014 to approximately HK$30.1 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2015. The decrease of other operating expenses was mainly attributable to the exclusion of operating expenses from the PRC business units.

The Group’s unaudited depreciation and amortization expenses decreased by approximately 15% from approximately HK$7.0 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2014 to approximately HK$6.0 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2015, which was mainly due to the exclusion of depreciation and amortization expenses of the PRC business units. The Group’s unaudited finance costs for the nine months ended 30 September 2015 amounted to approximately HK$0.5 million, which was similar as compared with the corresponding period in 2014 (2014: approximately HK$0.5 million).

As a result of the above reasons, the unaudited profit attributable to the owners of the Company decreased by approximately 50% from approximately HK$16.2 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2014 to approximately HK$8.1 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2015.

THIRD QUARTERLY REPORT 2015

PROSPECTS

With the local labour market easing up a little bit lately, the Company anticipates the situation of staff recruitment and retention will slightly improve in the near future, and which will eventually benefit our outsourcing as well as staff insourcing business. With the increasing popularity of different types of text based social media and instant messaging tools, the Company also sees a good potential in our multi-media service support which encompasses voice, text and social media platforms. It is still the intention of the Company to continue to look for any possible partnership, business merger and/or acquisition opportunities that can complement the business as well as growth potential of the Company.

LIQUIDITY

The Group adheres to a prudent financial management policy and has a healthy financial position. During the nine months under review, the Group financed our operations with internally generated cash flows and banking facilities.
