The Target Group is principally engaged in the online sales of consumer electronic products.
The Group has been identifying and exploring suitable projects and/or investment with good profit potential for acquisition so as to diversify the Group's business and bring return to the shareholders of the Company. The Directors believe that the Target Group has good growth potential and will further strengthen the e-commerce layout of the Group's existing businesses.
GENERAL
The Board wishes to emphasize that the Memorandum of Understanding is not legally binding and not exclusive. As at the date of this announcement, no legally binding agreement in relation to the Possible Acquisition has been entered into.
The final terms of the definitive agreement in respect of the Possible Acquisition are subject to further negotiations between the parties and have yet to be finalised and may therefore deviate from those set out in the Memorandum of Understanding.
If the Possible Acquisition materialises, the transaction may constitute a notifiable transaction of the Company under Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules. Further announcement(s) in respect of the Possible Acquisition will be made by the Company in accordance with applicable requirements of the Listing Rules as and when appropriate.
As the Memorandum of Understanding is not legally binding, the Group may or may not proceed the Possible Acquisition with the respective possible seller under the Memorandum of Understanding. Further, as no legally binding agreement with respect to the Possible Acquisition has been entered into, the Possible Acquisition may or may not proceed. Shareholders and possible investors of the Company are reminded to exercise caution when dealing in the Shares.
