(I) MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Year-on-year performance

Revenue

Group revenue for the financial year ended 31 December 2010 decreased by approximately RMB 432.2 million, or approximately 26.8%, from approximately RMB 1,615.3 million in the previous financial year to approximately RMB 1,183.1 million in the current financial year ended 31 December 2010. Such decrease was due to lower telecom operators’ spending during the financial year which affected both sales in RF Coaxial Cables and Accessories.

RF Coaxial Cable

Revenue generated from RF Coaxial Cables decreased by approximately RMB 332.4 million, or approximately 24.7%, from approximately RMB 1,344.0 million in the previous financial year to approximately RMB 1,011.6 million in the current financial year ended 31 December 2010.

Accessories

Revenue generated from Accessories decreased by approximately RMB 99.8 million, or approximately 36.8%, from approximately RMB 271.3 million in the previous financial year to approximately RMB 171.5 million in the current financial year ended 31 December 2010.

Gross profit margin

Although there had been a constant downward pressure on average selling prices of our products, the Group had been able to maintain a relatively steady gross profit margin during the financial year ended 31 December 2010 at approximately 18.7% compared to approximately 19.4% in the previous financial year. Various measures had been undertaken to ensure a more effective cost control program, including the reduction of raw materials costs, improvement of manufacturing processes and vigilant selection of suppliers for better logistics coordination, better pricing and payment terms.

24

Other income

Other income increased by approximately RMB 7.7 million, or approximately 102.4%, from approximately RMB 7.6 million in the previous financial year to approximately RMB 15.3 million in the current financial year ended 31 December 2010. The increase is due to increased government grants given to the Group’s key subsidiary, Jiangsu Hengxin Technology Co., Ltd.

Selling and distribution expenses

Selling and distribution expenses decreased by approximately RMB 27.0 million, or approximately 32.6%, from approximately RMB 82.8 million in the previous financial year to approximately RMB 55.8 million in the current financial year ended 31 December 2010. The decrease was in line with the Group’s lower sales achieved during the financial year ended 31 December 2010.

Administrative expenses

Administrative expenses increased by approximately RMB 1.2 million, or approximately 3.4%, from approximately RMB 35.1 million in the previous financial year to approximately RMB 36.3 million in the current financial year ended 31 December 2010. The increase was mainly due to the expenses incurred for the Group’s dual primary listing application in Hong Kong during the financial year 2010.

Other operating expenses

Other operating expenses increased by approximately RMB 3.0 million or approximately 40.5% from approximately RMB 7.4 million in the previous financial year to approximately RMB 10.4 million in the current financial year ended 31 December 2010. The increase was mainly due to foreign exchange gains in the previous financial year compared to an exchange loss incurred in the current financial year 2010, and was further contributed by the loss of sale of held-fortrading investments amounting approximately RMB 1.5 million during the financial year 2010.

25

Finance costs

Finance costs decreased by approximately RMB 6.3 million, or approximately 39.4%, from approximately RMB 16.0 million in the previous financial year to approximately RMB 9.7 million in the current financial year ended 31 December 2010. The decrease was in line with the decrease in short term bank borrowings obtained during the financial year ended 31 December 2010.

Profit before income tax

Profit before income tax decreased by approximately RMB 54.2 million, or approximately 30.3%, from approximately RMB 178.9 million in the previous financial year to approximately RMB 124.7 million in the current financial year ended 31 December 2010 due to lower revenue generated in 2010.

Income tax expense

The Group’s main subsidiary is subject to an incentive tax rate of 15% as it had been awarded as a high-tech enterprise in 2008. This rate is higher than the effective tax rate of 12.5% that the subsidiary enjoyed in 2009. The decrease in income tax expenses is due to the overall decrease in profit before tax for the financial year. Accordingly, income tax expense decreased by approximately RMB 6.9 million, or approximately 23.7%, from approximately RMB 29.1 million in the previous financial year to approximately RMB 22.2 million in the current financial year ended 31 December 2010.

Net profit

In view of the above, net profit attributable to equity holders of the parent decreased approximately RMB 47.3 million from approximately RMB 149.9 million in 2009 to approximately RMB 102.6 million in 2010.

26

Performance

Revenue

Group revenue decreased by approximately RMB 60.2 million, or approximately 15.9%, from approximately RMB 377.9 million in 4Q2009 to approximately RMB 317.7 million in the 4Q2010. The decrease was due to a relative decrease in spending by telecom operators in the PRC and overseas during the 4Q2010, which affected both sales in RF Coaxial Cables and Accessories.

RF Coaxial Cable

Revenue generated from RF Coaxial Cables decreased by approximately RMB 13.8 million, or approximately 4.6%, from approximately RMB 302.7 million in 4Q2009 to approximately RMB 288.9 million in 4Q2010.

Accessories

Revenue generated from Accessories decreased by approximately RMB 46.4 million, or approximately 61.7%, from approximately RMB 75.2 million in 4Q2009 to approximately RMB 28.8 million in 4Q2010.

Gross profit margin

Gross profit margin for 4Q2010 stood at approximately 17.7% compared to approximately 19.5% in 4Q2009. This is due to intensifying competition which weighed down on average selling prices of our products in both operating segments during the financial period.

Other income

Other income increased by approximately RMB 0.2 million, or approximately 9.1%, from approximately RMB 2.2 million in 4Q2009 to approximately RMB 2.4 million in 4Q2010. The increase is due to relatively higher government grants given to the Group’s key subsidiary, Jiangsu Hengxin Technology Co., Ltd. during the financial period.

27

Selling and distribution expenses

Selling and distribution expenses decreased by approximately RMB 3.6 million, or approximately 19.8%, from approximately RMB 18.2 million in 4Q2009 to approximately RMB 14.6 million in 4Q2010. The decrease was in line with the Group’s lower sales achieved during the financial period.

Administrative expenses

Administrative expenses increased by approximately RMB 6.2 million, or approximately 131.9%, from approximately RMB 4.7 million in 4Q2009 to approximately RMB 10.9 million in 4Q2010. The increase was mainly due to the expenses incurred for the Group’s dual primary listing application in Hong Kong.

Other operating expenses

Other operating expenses increased by approximately RMB 1.6 million, or approximately 80.0%, from approximately RMB 2.0 million in 4Q2009 to approximately RMB 3.6 million in 4Q2010. The increase was due to foreign exchange losses incurred during the financial period.

Finance costs

Finance costs decreased by approximately RMB 2.3 million, or approximately 74.2%, from approximately RMB 3.1 million in 4Q2009 to approximately RMB 0.8 million in 4Q2010. The decrease was in line with the decrease in short term bank borrowings obtained during the financial year in 2010.

Profit before income tax

Profit before income tax decreased by approximately RMB 19.1 million, or approximately 39.9%, from approximately RMB 47.9 million in 4Q2009 to approximately RMB 28.8 million in 4Q2010 due to lower revenue generated in 2010.

28

Income tax expense

The Group’s main subsidiary in the PRC is subject to an incentive tax rate of 15% as it had been awarded as a high-tech enterprise in 2008. This rate is higher than the effective tax rate of 12.5% that the subsidiary enjoyed in 2009. The decrease in income tax expenses is due to the overall decrease in profit before tax for the financial year. Accordingly, income tax expense decreased by approximately RMB 1.4 million, or approximately 20.0%, from approximately RMB 7.0 million in the 4Q2009 to approximately RMB 5.6 million in the 4Q2010.

Net profit

In view of the above, net profit attributable to equity holders of the parent decreased by approximately RMB 17.7 million from approximately RMB 40.9 million in 4Q2009 to approximately RMB 23.2 million in 4Q2010.

STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION

Material fluctuations of balance sheet items are explained below:

Pledged bank deposits

Pledged bank deposits are used as a pledged against commercial bills used for payment to suppliers. Such decrease by approximately in RMB 57.9 million from approximately RMB 120.5 million as at 31 December 2009 to approximately RMB 62.6 million as at 31 December 2010 was due to a lower amount of bank deposits required to be set aside as securities for a lower balance payable in the form of commercial bills to suppliers.

Trade receivables

Trade receivables decreased by approximately RMB 91.5 million from approximately RMB 718.2 million as at 31 December 2009 to approximately RMB 626.7 million as at 31 December 2010.

29

Average trade receivables turnover days are 212 days as at 31 December 2010 compared to 147 days as at 31 December 2009. Whilst there is an increase of turnover days, it is a decrease from the 229 days trade receivables turnover as at 30 September 2010. Most of the trade receivables balances are recent sales which are well within the average credit period given to our customers. Collections have slowed down as a result of slower repayment from one of the three major PRC telecom operators. The three PRC telecom operators have no history of bad debts and continue to make regular payments to the Group. The Group believes that the risk of collection is remote as it has not experienced such default since transacting with this particular telecom operator.

Other receivables and prepayments

Other receivables and prepayments decreased by approximately RMB 11.1 million from approximately RMB 24.1 million as at 31 December 2009 to approximately RMB 13.0 million as at 31 December 2010. The decrease in balance is due to a higher amount of advanced payment to suppliers as at 31 December 2009 arising from the higher demand of products.

Inventories

Inventories (comprising raw materials, work-in-progress and finished goods) decreased by approximately RMB 55.8 million from approximately RMB 184.2 million as at 31 December 2009 to approximately RMB 128.4 million as at 31 December 2010. This is in line with the decrease in demand by PRC’s telecom operators of the Group’s products during the year 2010.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment increased by approximately RMB 1.7 million from approximately RMB 139.3 million in 31 December 2009 to approximately RMB 141.0 million as at 31 December 2010 due to a construction of a new building in the premises of our PRC subsidiary arising from the need for more office space by the Group.

30

Short-term bank loans

Short-term bank loans decreased by approximately RMB 135.2 million from approximately RMB 175.2 million in 31 December 2009 to approximately RMB 40.0 million in 31 December 2010 as the need for lesser raw materials resulted in a lower amount of working capital required during the year 2010.

(II)LIQUIDITY, FINANCIAL RESOURCES

In addition to its short-term interesting-bearing facilities, the Group generally finances its operations from cash flows generated internally.

The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern while maximizing the return to shareholders through the optimization of debt and equity balance.

The Management monitors capital based on the Group net gearing ratio. The Group net gearing ratio is calculated as net borrowings divided by total equity. Net borrowings are calculated as total short-term loans less cash and cash equivalents at the end of the reporting period.

As a 31 December

(III)PROSPECTS (A COMMENTARY AT THE DATE OF THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE COMPETITIVE CONDITIONS OF THE INDUSTRY IN WHICH THE GROUP OPERATES AND ANY KNOWN FACTORS OR EVENTS THAT MAY AFFECT THE GROUP IN THE NEXT REPORTING PERIOD AND THE NEXT 12 MONTHS)

On 23 December 2010, the Group was successfully listed on the SEHK, issuing 52 million new ordinary shares priced at HK$2.25 each. With approximately HK$95.0 million of net proceeds raised from this offering, the Group intends to utilise approximately 43.6% of the net proceeds to diversify our product portfolio to antennas, 29.1% in high temperature resistant cables, and 9.1% each in expanding our sales networks overseas, enhancing our research and development team and as working capital respectively.

In line with the above expansion strategies, the Group has commenced construction of the manufacturing line for one of the high temperature resistant cables products. Construction of the line is expected to be completed by the first quarter of 2011, and the commencement of manufacture, barring unforeseen circumstances, should commence in the second quarter of 2011.

To strengthen our market position, we will continue to focus in expanding our overseas clientele base, especially in India, through our various sales activities.

Domestic demand within the PRC may continue to be weak arising from lower demand from telecom operators, while the overall operating environment is still highly competitive and is expected to impose downward pressures on the margins of our products. However, the Group expects a gradual improvement in business conditions in 2011. The ability of the Group to forecast with normal confidence levels continues to be affected by various elements such as currency fluctuations, volatile telecom operators’ spending, uncertainties in credit markets and commodity cost volatility.

The Group continues to seek viable opportunities for acquisitions, joint ventures or other investments that are a complementary strategic fit with our existing business.
