CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM
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 of the Stock Exchange and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD
As at the Latest Practicable Date, Hope Master holds Property A which is an office unit located at Unit 3107, 31st Floor, West Tower, Shun Tak Centre, 168-200 Connaught Road Central, Hong Kong. The gross floor area and saleable area of Property A are approximately 2,481 square feet and 2,010 square feet respectively. According to the valuation conducted by Grant Sherman as set out in the valuation report in Appendix V to this circular, the market value of Property A as at 29 February 2016 was approximately HK$67,300,000. As disclosed in the valuation report, Grant Sherman has valued Property A by comparison approach assuming sale in its existing state by making reference to comparable sales evidences as available in the relevant market. It has further adjusted the market value subject to the differences of location, building age, floor level, orientation, view, building quality and market condition between Property A and the comparable sales evidences. The market condition is with reference to the price indexes announced by the Rating and Valuation Department and no further assumptions were made on market condition. The Directors consider that the price indexes prepared by the Rating and Valuation Department are authoritative and it is appropriate for Grant Sherman to determine the market condition with reference to the price indexes announced by the Rating and Valuation Department. The Directors were not aware of any subsequent events after 29 February 2016 which would materially affect the market value of Property A as at the Latest Practicable Date. As at 29 February 2016, the Hope Master Sale Loan amounted to HK$63,370,679.30. The principal amount of the Hope Master Sale Loan is non-interest bearing. The Hope Master Sale Loan was provided by Vendor A to Hope Master mainly for the settlement of the consideration for the acquisition of Property A by Hope Master from the Contractual Licencee, the expenses to facilitate the completion of the acquisition of Property A by Hope Master including stamp duty, registration fee and legal fees, together with the management fee deposit paid in respect of Property A. The amount of the Hope Master Sale Loan will not increase before Completion and will be assigned to the Purchaser upon Completion.
The Purchaser shall not be obliged to purchase the Hope Master Sale Share and the Hope Master Sale Loan unless the transfer of the Hope Master Sale Share and the Hope Master Sale Loan are completed simultaneously.
Consideration
The aggregate consideration for the Hope Master Sale Share and Hope Master Sale Loan shall be HK$63,370,687.10 comprising the followings:
-
(a) the purchase price for the Hope Master Sale Loan shall be HK$63,370,679.30 which is equal to the amount of the Hope Master Sale Loan as at 29 February 2016; and
-
(b) the purchase price for the Hope Master Sale Share shall be the sum of HK$7.80 which is equal to the amount of the issued share capital of Hope Master.
The aggregate consideration for the Hope Master Acquisition of HK$63,370,687.10 shall be payable to Vendor A upon Completion in the following manner:
– 7 –
LETTER FROM THE BOARD
-
(a) a refundable deposit of HK$10,000,000, has been paid by the Purchaser to Vendor A upon signing of the LOI A which shall be applied as deposit under the Hope Master Acquisition Agreement and as part payment of the consideration on Completion;
-
(b) a refundable deposit of HK$10,000,000, has been paid by the Purchaser to Vendor A upon signing of the Hope Master Acquisition Agreement as deposit and as part payment of the consideration on Completion; and
-
(c) the balance of the consideration shall be paid to Vendor A or Vendor A’s solicitors in cash on Completion.
The consideration for the Hope Master Acquisition was determined after arm’s length negotiations between the Purchaser and Vendor A having taken into account the amount of the Hope Master Sale Loan of HK$63,370,679.30 as at 29 February 2016, the amount of the issued share capital of Hope Master and the prevailing market value of Property A. The Hope Master Acquisition will be funded as to HK$37,000,000 by the net proceeds from the issue of 1,529,144,700 rights shares under the rights issue as completed on 29 February 2016 and as to HK$26,370,687 by external financing from a revolving 8% interest loan facility of up to HK$73,500,000 obtained by the Company from an Independent Third Party.
Adjustment to consideration in the event of extension of Long Stop Date
Pursuant to the Hope Master Acquisition Agreement, in the event that the Long Stop Date is extended to a date beyond 30 June 2016, the consideration payable by the Purchaser under the Hope Master Acquisition Agreement shall be subject to further agreement between the parties to the Hope Master Acquisition Agreement in writing.

-
(e) all the warranties remaining true and accurate in all respects from the date of the Hope Master Acquisition Agreement up to and immediately before Completion.

The Purchaser may at any time waive (in whole or in part) any of the conditions referred to in conditions (b) and (e) above at its sole and reasonable discretion, such waiver shall be effective only if it is made in writing and notified to Vendor A’s solicitors. The conditions (a), (c) and (d) set out above are incapable of being waived.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, none of the above conditions had been fulfilled.

To the best knowledge, information and belief of the Directors after having made all reasonable enquiries, the Contractual Licencee is an Independent Third Party and save for the above-mentioned transactions with Hope Master, the Contractual Licencee has no relationship with Vendor A.
Pursuant to the Hope Master Acquisition Agreement, notwithstanding Completion which shall take place on the Completion Date, the Contractual Licencee is allowed to occupy and use Property A until 30 June 2016 at 3:00 p.m.. Vendor A and the Purchaser agreed that Vendor A shall procure the Contractual Licencee to deliver vacant possession of Property A to Hope Master on ‘‘as is’’ basis on 30 June 2016 at 3:00 p.m. provided always that the Contractual Licencee shall pay the Government rates and rent and the management fee inclusive of all incidental

-
(a) the purchase price for the Famous Flamingo Sale Loan shall be the dollar-to-dollar equivalent of the amount of the Famous Flamingo Sale Loan as at the date of Completion; and

(b) the purchase price for the Famous Flamingo Sale Share shall be the sum of HK$7.80 which is equal to the amount of the issued share capital of Famous Flamingo.

The Company intends to acquire Property A and Property B as the head office and principal place of business of the Group to cope with the expansion of the Group. Taking into account that the Properties will facilitate the Group to expand its business in the future, the Board considers that the Acquisition and the terms of the Acquisition Agreements are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.

2. STATEMENT OF INDEBTEDNESS
At the close of business on 31 March 2016, being the latest practicable date for the purpose of ascertaining the indebtedness of the Group and the Target Companies prior to the printing of this Circular, the Group had outstanding secured bank borrowings of approximately Singapore Dollar (‘‘S$’’)409,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$2,349,000), and the Group had guarantees provided by a bank and a financial institution totaling of approximately S$3,526,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$20,248,000) which had been given in favour to international airlines. The guarantees were guaranteed by the Company and were secured by the fixed charges of bank deposits of S$211,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$1,212,000) and cash collateral of approximately S$497,000 (equivalent to approximately HK$2,854,000) placed to the bank and the financial institution, respectively, by the Group.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP
APPENDIX I
3. WORKING CAPITAL SUFFICIENCY
The Directors, after due and careful consideration, are of the opinion that after taking into account of Hope Master Acquisition and Famous Flamingo Acquisition, the present internal resources, presently available facilities from bank and other providers of finance granted to the Enlarged Group, the Enlarged Group has sufficient working capital for its present requirements, that is for at least the next 12 months from the date of this circular, in the absence of any unforeseeable circumstances.
4. MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE
As at the Latest Practicable Date, save for the matters as disclosed in the section headed ‘‘Financial and Trading Prospect of the Enlarged Group’’ below, the Directors are not aware of any material adverse change in the financial or trading position of the Group since 31 December 2015, the date to which the latest published audited financial statements of the Group were made up.
5. FINANCIAL AND TRADING PROSPECT OF THE ENLARGED GROUP
The Group will continue to maintain the provision and operation of travel business, treasury management and money lending as its principal activities. As disclosed in the Company’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2015, the management is of the view that the travel business environment in coming years is continuing to be highly competitive and volatile. In order to maintain the Group’s sustainability and preservation of value over the longer term, the Group will continue to look for suitable investment opportunities and projects in other areas. On 4 February 2016, the Group was granted a money lender license by the relevant government authority in Hong Kong. The Group will further drive this business segment by achieving healthy loan growth and expanding its loan portfolio which in turn provides a stable income stream for the Group. In addition, the Company is in the process of making application for a license to carry out the asset management business. The management believes that such business segment will also generate steady and recurring income for the Group in the near future. As at 31 December 2015, the Group’s net current assets were approximately HK$251.9 million. The completion of the issue of 1,529,144,700 new shares by way of rights issue as completed on 29 February 2016 provided an opportunity for the Company to broaden its shareholder base and strengthen its capital base. The Directors are of the view that the Group will still maintain a sound financial position after the Completion of the Acquisition.
On 6 May 2016, the Company issued a profit warning announcement (the ‘‘Profit Warning Announcement’’) in which based on the unaudited consolidated management accounts of the Group for the three months ended 31 March 2016 and the information currently available, it is expected that the Group will record a loss of not less than HK$10,000,000 for the three months ended 31 March 2016 as compared to the loss of HK$4,856,000 recorded in the three months ended 31 March 2015.
I – 2
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP
APPENDIX I
The increase in loss is mainly attributable to (i) an estimated loss of HK$4,200,000 arising on change in fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss for the three months ended 31 March 2016; (ii) the absence of the revenue on the sales of hotel rooms in the current period; and (iii) an increase of HK$1,400,000 in staff costs.
On 10 May 2016, the Company issued an update on profit warning announcement in which upon further review by the Board on the unaudited consolidated management accounts of the Group for the three months ended 31 March 2016, the Group expects to record a loss of not less than HK$22,000,000 for the three months ended 31 March 2016, instead of not less than HK$10,000,000 as announced in the Profit Warning Announcement.
The increase in the expected loss attributable to the owners of the Company is due to an estimated fair value loss of HK$11,400,000 arising on impairment loss on available-for-sale investments. Due to a significant decline in the fair value of such investments below its cost, an impairment loss amounting to HK$11,400,000 was required to be recognised during the three months ended 31 March 2016 which was reclassified from the investments revaluation reserve to profit or loss.
The Board expects that such expected loss for the three months ended 31 March 2016 will not have impact on the cash flow of the Group as the majority of the loss, including the estimated unrealised loss of $1,744,000 arising on change in fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and the estimated fair value loss of HK$11,400,000 arising on impairment loss on available-for-sale investments, are accounting related adjustments and non-cash items.
The Group does not expect any growth in the Group’s travel business in the year ending 31 December 2016. With a view to improve its profitability, the Group will put more emphasis on its money lending business and the potential asset management business in order to provide a stable income and broaden the revenue base of the Group.
The Directors also consider that it would not be in the best interest to continue to use leased properties as the Group’s head office because of the risk of substantial increase in rental expenditure and the risk of early termination or non-renewal of the Group’s tenancy agreement by the landlord. Furthermore, the Acquisition will provide a permanent head office to the Group in Hong Kong to cope with the Group’s future expansion and with a potential of capital appreciation in the long run. As such, the Acquisition is in the interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.

4. Significant Accounting Policies
The Financial Information of Hope Master has been prepared in accordance with HKFRSs issued by the HKICPA. In addition, the Financial Information of Hope Master includes applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange (‘‘Listing Rules’’) and in compliance with the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance (Cap. 622).
II – 8
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF HOPE MASTER
APPENDIX II
The Financial Information of Hope Master has been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the investment property which is measured at fair value at the end of the reporting period.
Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, Hope Master takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in the Financial Information of Hope Master is determined on such a basis, except for share-based payment transactions that are within the scope of HKFRS 2, leasing transactions that are within the scope of HKAS 17, and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in HKAS 2 or value in use in HKAS 36.
In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
-
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;
-
Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
-
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The principal accounting policies are set out below.
Investment property
Investment property is property held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation.
Investment property is initially measured at cost, including any directly attributable expenditure. Subsequent to initial recognition, investment property is measured at its fair value. Gain or loss arising from change in the fair value of investment property is included in profit or loss for the period in which it arises.
II – 9
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF HOPE MASTER
APPENDIX II
An investment property is derecognised upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected from its disposals. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the profit or loss in the period in which the property is derecognised.
Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on the taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ‘profit before tax’ as reported in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income because of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. Hope Master’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the Financial Information of Hope Master and the corresponding tax base used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary difference to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of the reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rate (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
II – 10
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF HOPE MASTER
APPENDIX II
The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which Hope Master expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss, except when it relates to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
Financial instruments
Financial liabilities are recognised in the statement of financial position when Hope Master becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial liabilities are added to or deducted from the fair value of financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments
Debt and equity instruments issued by Hope Master are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by Hope Master are recognised at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
II – 11
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF HOPE MASTER
APPENDIX II
Financial liability
Financial liability represents advance from a shareholder is subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method.
Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Interest expense is recognised on an effective interest basis.
Derecognition
Hope Master derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, Hope Master’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.
Impairment losses on tangible assets
At the end of the reporting period, Hope Master reviews the carrying amounts of its assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised as income immediately in profit or loss.
II – 12
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF HOPE MASTER
APPENDIX II
5. Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty and Critical Accounting Judgments
In the application of accounting policies, which are described in note 4, the sole director of Hope Master is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
The following is the critical judgment, apart from those involving estimations, that the sole director of Hope Master have made in the process of applying Hope Master’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the Financial Information of Hope Master.
Deferred taxation on investment property
For the purposes of measuring deferred tax liability or deferred tax asset arising from investment property that are measured using the fair value model, the sole director of Hope Master has reviewed Hope Master’s investment property and concluded that Hope Master’s investment property is not held under a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment property over time, rather than through sale. Therefore, in measuring Hope Master’s deferred taxation on investment property, the sole director of Hope Master has determined that the presumption that the carrying amount of investment property is recovered entirely through sale is not rebutted. As a result, Hope Master has not recognised any deferred taxes on changes in fair value of investment property as Hope Master is not subject to any income taxes on the fair value changes of investment property on disposal.
The following is the key assumption concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that may have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
Fair value of investment property
Investment property in the statement of financial position at 31 December 2015 is carried at its fair value of HK$67,300,000. The fair value was based on valuation on the properties conducted by independent firms of professional valuers using property valuation techniques which involve certain assumptions of market conditions. Favourable or unfavourable changes to these assumptions would result in change in the fair value of the investment property and corresponding adjustments to the amount of gain or loss reported in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
II – 13

APPENDIX II
6. Income Tax Expense
Hong Kong Profits Tax is calculated at 16.5% of the estimated assessable profit. No provisions for Hong Kong Profits Tax have been made in the Financial Information of Hope Master as Hope Master had no assessable profit for the period.
The income tax expense for the period can be reconciled to the profit before tax per the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as follows:
| Profit before tax Tax at the applicable rate of 16.5% Tax effect of income not taxable for tax purpose Tax effect of expenses not deductible for tax purpose Income tax expense |
HK$’000 3,999 |

There was no significant unprovided deferred tax liabilities for the period or at the end of the reporting period.

The fair value of investment property at 31 December 2015 has been arrived at on the basis of a valuation carried out on that date by Grant Sherman Appraisal Limited (‘‘Grant Sherman’’), an independent qualified professional valuer not connected with Hope Master. Grant Sherman is a member of the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors, and has appropriate qualifications and recent experiences in the valuation of similar properties in the relevant locations. The valuation of investment property at 31 December 2015 was arrived at using the comparison method based on market observable transactions of similar properties in other locations and adjusted to reflect the conditions and location of the subject property.
In estimating the fair value of the properties, the highest and best use of the property is its current use.
The following table gives information about how the fair value of the investment property is determined (in particular, the valuation techniques and inputs used), as well as the fair value hierarchy into which the fair value measurement is categorised (Levels 1 to 3) based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurement is observable.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF HOPE MASTER
APPENDIX II
Fair value measurements and valuation processes
In estimating the fair value of Hope Master’s investment property, Hope Master uses market-observable data to the extent it is available. Where Level 1 inputs are not available, Hope Master engages third party qualified valuers to perform the valuation of Hope Master’s investment property. At the end of each reporting period, the management of Hope Master works closely with the qualified external valuers to establish and determine the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs for Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. Hope Master will first consider and adopt Level 2 inputs where inputs can be derived from observable quoted prices in the active market. When Level 2 inputs are not available, Hope Master will adopt valuation techniques that include Level 3 inputs. Where there is a material change in the fair value of the assets, the causes of the fluctuations will be reported to the sole director of Hope Master.
Information about the valuation techniques and inputs used in determining the fair value of the Hope Master’s investment property is disclosed above.
10. Advance from a Shareholder
The amounts are unsecured, interest-free and repayable on demand.
11. Share Capital
On 28 April 2015, Hope Master was incorporated in the BVI with limited liability with an authorised share capital of US$50,000 divided into 50,000 shares of US$1 each. On 28 October 2015, one subscriber share, was allotted and issued as fully paid share, to Mr. Tse. After that, there was no change in the authorised share capital and the issued share capital.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF HOPE MASTER
APPENDIX II
Hope Master has net current liabilities of HK$63,301,000 as at 31 December 2015. Hope Master has sufficient funds to finance its current working capital requirement taking into account of the financial support from its shareholder and the Company.
At the end of reporting period, Hope Master’s remaining contractual maturity for its financial liability is based on agreed repayment terms. In the opinion of the directors, the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability and the undiscounted cash flows based on the earliest date on which Hope Master can be required to pay is insignificant and therefore, no further analysis is presented.
13c. Fair value measurements of financial instruments
The fair value of financial liabilities are determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis using prices or rates from observable current market transactions as input.
The sole director of Hope Master consider that the carrying amount of financial liability recorded at amortised cost in the Financial Information of Hope Master approximate the fair value.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF FAMOUS FLAMINGO
APPENDIX III
Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, Famous Flamingo takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in the Financial Information of Famous Flamingo is determined on such a basis, except for share-based payment transactions that are within the scope of HKFRS 2, leasing transactions that are within the scope of HKAS 17, and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in HKAS 2 or value in use in HKAS 36.
In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
-
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;
-
Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
-
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The principal accounting policies are set out below.

(calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the profit or loss in the period in which the property is derecognised.
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.
Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on the taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ‘profit before tax’ as reported in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income because of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of the reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rate (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which Famous Flamingo expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss, except when it relates to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
Financial instruments
Financial liabilities are recognised in the statement of financial position when Famous Flamingo becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial liabilities are added to or deducted from the fair value of financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.

Famous Flamingo derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, Famous Flamingo’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised in profit or loss.
Impairment losses on tangible assets
At the end of the reporting period, Famous Flamingo reviews the carrying amounts of its assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised as income immediately in profit or loss.

5. Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty and Critical Accounting Judgments
In the application of accounting policies, which are described in note 4, the sole director of Famous Flamingo is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
The following is the critical judgment, apart from those involving estimations, that the sole director of Famous Flamingo have made in the process of applying Famous Flamingo’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the Financial Information of Famous Flamingo.
Deferred taxation on investment properties
For the purposes of measuring deferred tax liability or deferred tax asset arising from investment properties that are measured using the fair value model, the sole director of Famous Flamingo has reviewed Famous Flamingo’s investment properties and concluded that Famous Flamingo’s investment properties are not held under a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment property over time, rather than through sale. Therefore, in measuring Famous Flamingo’s deferred taxation on investment properties, the sole director of Famous Flamingo has determined that the presumption that the carrying amount of investment properties is recovered entirely through sale is not rebutted. As a result, Famous Flamingo has not recognised any deferred taxes on changes in fair value of investment properties as Famous Flamingo is not subject to any income taxes on the fair value changes of investment properties on disposal.
The following is the key assumption concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that may have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
Fair value of investment properties
Investment properties in the statement of financial position at 31 December 2015 is carried at its fair value of HK$74,700,000. The fair value was based on valuation on the properties conducted by independent firms of professional valuers using property valuation techniques which involve certain assumptions of market conditions. Favourable or unfavourable changes to these assumptions would result in change in the fair value of the investment properties and corresponding adjustments to the amount of gain or loss reported in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

6. Income Tax Expense
Hong Kong Profits Tax is calculated at 16.5% of the estimated assessable profit. No provisions for Hong Kong Profits Tax have been made in the Financial Information of Famous Flamingo as Famous Flamingo had no assessable profit for the period.
The income tax expense for the period can be reconciled to the profit before tax per the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as follows:
| Profit before tax Tax at the applicable rate of 16.5% Tax effect of income not taxable for tax purpose Tax effect of expenses not deductible for tax purpose Income tax expense |

The fair value of investment properties at 31 December 2015 has been arrived at on the basis of a valuation carried out on that date by Grant Sherman Appraisal Limited (‘‘Grant Sherman’’), an independent qualified professional valuer not connected with Famous Flamingo. Grant Sherman is a member of the Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors, and has appropriate qualifications and recent experiences in the valuation of similar properties in the relevant locations. The valuation of investment properties at 31 December 2015 was arrived at using the comparison method based on market observable transactions of similar properties in other locations and adjusted to reflect the conditions and location of the subject properties.
In estimating the fair value of the properties, the highest and best use of the properties is their current use.
The following table gives information about how the fair value of the investment properties is determined (in particular, the valuation techniques and inputs used), as well as the fair value hierarchy into which the fair value measurement is categorised (Levels 1 to 3) based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurement is observable.
| Fair value | Valuation technique(s) | Significant | Relationship of unobservable |

Fair value measurements and valuation processes
In estimating the fair value of Famous Flamingo’s investment properties, Famous Flamingo uses market-observable data to the extent it is available. Where Level 1 inputs are not available, Famous Flamingo engages third party qualified valuers to perform the valuation of Famous Flamingo’s investment properties. At the end of each reporting period, the management of Famous Flamingo works closely with the qualified external valuers to establish and determine the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs for Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. Famous Flamingo will first consider and adopt Level 2 inputs where inputs can be derived from observable quoted prices in the active market. When Level 2 inputs are not available, Famous Flamingo will adopt valuation techniques that include Level 3 inputs. Where there is a material change in the fair value of the assets, the causes of the fluctuations will be reported to the sole director of Famous Flamingo.
Information about the valuation techniques and inputs used in determining the fair value of the Famous Flamingo’s investment properties is disclosed above.
10. Advance from a Shareholder
The amount is unsecured, interest-bearing at 8% per annum and repayable on demand.

- (i) Foreign currency risk management
Famous Flamingo operates in Hong Kong with most of the transactions denominated and settled in Hong Kong dollars.
Famous Flamingo’s exposure to risk resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rate is minimal, and no sensitivity analysis has been presented assuming that the reasonably possible changes in foreign exchange rate would have no impact on Famous Flamingo’s other components of equity.
(ii) Interest rate risk management
Famous Flamingo currently does not have any interest rate hedging policy. Famous Flamingo monitors the interest rate risk exposure closely and may enter any hedging activities if the need arises.

Liquidity risk
In the management of the liquidity risk, Famous Flamingo monitors and maintains its financial position deemed adequate by the management to finance Famous Flamingo’s operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows.
Famous Flamingo has net current liabilities of HK$70,962,000 as at 31 December 2015. Famous Flamingo has sufficient funds to finance its current working capital requirement taking into account of the financial support from its shareholder and the Company.
At the end of reporting period, Famous Flamingo’s remaining contractual maturity for its financial liability is based on agreed repayment terms. In the opinion of the directors, the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability and the undiscounted cash flows based on the earliest date on which Famous Flamingo can be required to pay is insignificant and therefore, no further analysis is presented.
13c. Fair value measurements of financial instruments
The fair value of financial liabilities are determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis using prices or rates from observable current market transactions as input.
The sole director of Famous Flamingo consider that the carrying amount of financial liability recorded at amortised cost in the Financial Information of Famous Flamingo approximate the fair value.

Dear Sirs,
RE: Unit No. 3107, Room 3108, Room 3109 on 31/F of West Tower, Shun Tak Centre, Nos. 168-200 Connaught Road Central, Hong Kong (the ‘‘Properties’’)
In accordance with your instructions for us to value the property interest to be held by Global Mastermind Holdings Limited (the ‘‘Company’’) and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the ‘‘Group’’) in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China (‘‘Hong Kong’’), we confirm that we have carried out inspections, made relevant enquiries and obtained such further information as we consider necessary for the purpose of providing you with our opinion of the market value of such property interests as at the 29 February 2016 (‘‘date of valuation’’) for inclusion in the circular issued by the Company.
Our valuation is our opinion of the market value of the property interests where we would define market value as intended to mean ‘‘the estimated amount for which a property should exchange on the date of valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s-length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion’’.
V – 1
VALUATION REPORT OF THE PROPERTIES
APPENDIX V
Market Value is understood as the value of a property estimated without regard to costs of sale or purchase (or transaction) and without offset for any associated taxes or potential taxes.
In valuing the property interest, we have valued the Properties by comparison approach assuming sale in their existing state by making reference to comparable sales evidences as available in the relevant market. We have further adjusted the market value subject to the differences of location, building age, floor level, orientation, view, building quality and market condition between the Property and the comparable sales evidences. The market condition is with reference to the price indexes announced by Rating and Valuation Department, no further assumptions were made on market condition.
Our valuation has been made on the assumption that the owner sells the property interests on the open market in its existing state without the benefit of a deferred terms contract, leaseback, joint venture, management agreement or any similar arrangement which would serve to increase the values of the property interests. In addition, no forced sale situation in any manner is assumed in our valuation.
No allowance has been made in our valuation for any charge, mortgage or amount owing on the Properties nor for any expenses or taxation which may be incurred in effecting a sale. It is assumed that the Properties are free from encumbrances, restrictions and outgoings of an onerous nature which could affect their values.
In valuing the property interests, we have assumed that the owner has free and uninterrupted rights to use the Properties for the whole of the unexpired term as granted and are entitled to transfer the Properties with the residual term without payment of any further premium to the government authorities or any third parties.
We have assumed that all consents, approvals and licenses from relevant government authorities for the Properties have been granted without any onerous conditions or undue time delay which might affect their values. It is assumed that all applicable zoning and use regulations and restrictions have been complied with unless nonconformity has been stated, defined, and considered in the valuation certificates. Moreover, we have assumed that the utilization of the Properties and improvements are within the boundaries of the Properties described and that no encroachment or trespass exists, unless noted in the valuation certificates.
We have been provided with copies of extracts of title documents relating to the Properties. However, we have not caused title searches to be made for the Properties at the relevant government bureaus in Hong Kong and we have not inspected the original documents to verify the ownership, encumbrances or the existence of any subsequent amendments which may not appear on the copies handed to us. All documents have been used for reference only. All dimensions, measurements and areas are approximations.

APPENDIX V
VALUATION REPORT OF THE PROPERTIES
We have relied to a considerable extent on information provided by the Group and have accepted advice given to us by the Group on such matters as planning approvals or statutory notices, easements, tenure, occupancy, lettings, site and floor areas and in the identification of the Properties and other relevant matter. We have no reason to doubt the truth and accuracy of the information provided to us by the Company which is material to the valuation. We have also been advised by the Group that no material facts had been concealed or omitted in the information provided to us and have no reason to suspect that any material information has been withheld. All documents have been used for reference only. We consider that we have been provided with sufficient information to reach an informed view.
In valuing the property interests which are situated in Hong Kong and held under the government leases which will be expired before 30th June 2047, we have taken into account of the statement contained in the Annex III of the Joint Declaration of the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the Government of the People’s Republic of China on the question of Hong Kong and the New Territories Leases (Extension) Ordinance 1988 that such leases would have been extended without payment of premium until 30th June 2047 and that an annual rent of three percent of the rateable value of the Properties would be charged from the date of extension.
We have inspected the exteriors and interiors of the Properties. However, no structural survey has been made and we are therefore unable to report as to whether the Properties are or not free of rot, infestation or any other structural defects. No tests have been carried out on any of the services. Neither have we carried out site investigation to determine the suitability of the ground conditions or the services for any property development thereon. Our valuations are on the basis that these aspects are satisfactory and that no extraordinary expense or delay will be incurred during the construction period. No structural survey has been carried out and it was not possible to inspect the wood work and other parts of the structures which were covered, unexposed or inaccessible. We are therefore, unable to report that the Properties are free of rot, infestation or any structural defects. No tests have been carried out on any of the building services.
All dimensions, measurements and areas included in the valuation certificates are based on information contained in the documents provided to us by the Group and are approximations only. No on-site measurement has been taken.
In valuing the property interests, we have fully complied with the HKIS Valuation Standards (2012 Edition) published by The Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors (HKIS) and the requirements set out in Chapter 8 to the Rule Governing the Listing of Securities (Growth Enterprise Market) issued by The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and the Code on Takeovers and Mergers.
