VOLUNTARY ANNOUNCEMENT COMMENCEMENT OF NEW BUSINESS ACTIVITY
This announcement is made by Hatcher Group Limited (the “ Company ”, together with its subsidiaries, the “ Group ”) on a voluntary basis. The purpose of this announcement is to keep the shareholders of the Company (the “ Shareholders ”) and potential investors informed of the latest business development of the Group.
The board (the “ Board ”) of directors (the “ Directors ”) of the Company wishes to inform the Shareholders and potential investors that the Group intends to commence new business activity involving advising on overseas corporate finance activities, which may include advising on cross border listing on stock exchanges in Australia and the United Kingdom and/or other recognised overseas stock exchanges as well as advising on other cross border Merger and Acquisition transactions (“ New Business Activity ”).
The Company is an investment holding company and the Group is principally engaged in (i) licensed business on the provision of corporate finance advisory services, placing and underwriting services and asset management services; and (ii) non-licensed business on the provision of environmental, social and governance advisory services, business consultancy services, corporate secretarial services, accounting and taxation services, risk management and internal control advisory services and human resources services in Hong Kong. Taking into consideration of, among others, the expertise possessed by the management of the Company in the financial services industry, the Board is of the view that the New Business Activity can utilize such expertise to diversify the income stream of the Group. It is expected that the New Business Activity can generate additional investment returns on the available funds of the Group from time to time. Accordingly, the Board is of the view that the commencement of the New Business Activity will be in the interest of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole. The Group intends to finance the New Business Activity by its own internal resources.
