FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Grand Vision Media Holdings plc

( “GVMH” or the “Company”)

Half Year Report

Grand Vision Media Holdings plc announces its half year report for the six months ended 30 June 2024.

The CEO’s Report

Overview

The first half of 2024 is recovering slower than expected due to weak RMB and the volatile global situation.   The economy of Hong Kong was also adversely impacted by the global uncertainty.

However, with the decrease in USA interest rates and China monetary and fiscal policy initiatives to aid the recovery, we are more bullish about the 2 nd half of the year.

Summary of Trading Results

Revenue in the period was HKD1,878K [2023 : HKD2,272K], which represents a decrease of 17.34%. The Group had a loss after tax of HKD2,288K [2023 : HKD1,970K].    The Group continued its focus on cost controls whilst exploring alternative revenue streams.

Outlook

We are positive about the overall outlook for 2024 despite a slower first half of the year.   Some of the new revenue streams from our opening up of commodity marketing will see positive results in the coming quarter.   The overall recovery of the travel market in China and the strengthening RMB will boost the marketing budgets for many of our clients.     New partnerships in Europe and South East Asia will also help lessen our dependence on Mainland China market.

GRAND VISION MEDIA HOLDINGS PLC (“THE GROUP”)

There are no other IFRS or IFRIC interpretations that are not yet effective that would be expected to have material impact on the Group.

Employment expenses	297	289	583
Legal and professional fees	310	117	420
Other expenses	-	6	(558)
Total	607	412	445

5.   Earnings per Share

Earnings per share data is based on the Company result for the six months and the weighted average number of shares in issue.

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period:

	GVMH 30 June 2024 (unaudited)	GVMH 30 June 2023 (unaudited)	GVMH 31 December 2023 (audited)
	HK$	HK$	HK$
Loss after tax	(2,288,000)	(1,970,000)	(3,913,000)
Weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue	96,287,079	96,287,079	96,287,079
Basic and diluted loss per share	(0.02)	(0.02)	(0.04)

Basic and diluted earnings per share are the same, since where a loss is incurred the effect of outstanding share options and warrants is considered anti-dilutive and is ignored for the purpose of the loss per share calculation. There were no potential dilutive shares in issue during the period.

6.   Share Capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Proceeds from issuance of ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of new ordinary shares are deducted against share capital.
