(I) MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Material changes are explained below:

Nine months performance — Nine months ended 30 September

Revenue

Revenue decreased by approximately RMB213.8 million, or approximately 19.3% from approximately RMB1,104.8 million in the nine months ended 30 September 2011 (“ 9M2011 ”) to approximately RMB891.0 million in the nine months ended 30 September 2012 (“ 9M2012 ”). Lower spending by telecom operators on our products in the domestic and overseas markets resulted in a lower revenue earned during the period.

RF Coaxial Cable

Revenue generated from RF Coaxial Cables decreased by approximately RMB241.4 million or approximately 25.8% from approximately RMB936.1 million in 9M2011 to approximately RMB694.7 million in 9M2012.

Accessories

Revenue generated from Accessories increased by approximately RMB24.8 million or approximately 14.7% from approximately RMB168.7 million in 9M2011 to approximately RMB193.5 million in 9M2012.

Gross profit margin

The Group achieved an overall gross profit margin of approximately 18.1% in 9M2012, relatively unchanged compared to 9M2011 at 18.3%. The Group continues to monitor production efficiencies to ensure optimal raw materials utilisation, stringent selection of suppliers in tender biddings to keep costs to a minimum, coupled with efficient use of various resources to keep up with price pressures resulting from keen competition.

Other income

Other income increased by approximately RMB7.4 million or approximately 194.7% from approximately RMB3.8 million in 9M2011 to approximately RMB11.2 million in 9M2012. The increase is mainly due to gains from favourable exchange rate movements, government grants being awarded to the Group’s key subsidiary, Jiangsu Hengxin Technology Co., Ltd and a higher interest income earned in 9M2012.

Selling and distribution expenses

Selling and distribution expenses decreased by approximately RMB5.0 million or approximately 10.8% from approximately RMB46.5 million in 9M2011 to approximately RMB41.5 million in 9M2012. The decrease was in line with the Group’s lower sales generated during the financial period.

– 20 –

Administrative expenses

Administrative expenses decreased by approximately RMB4.3 million or approximately 13.7% from approximately RMB31.4 million in 9M2011 to approximately RMB27.1 million in 9M2012 as the Group adopted various cost control measures during the financial period.

Other operating expenses

Other operating expenses decreased by approximately RMB7.6 million or approximately 38.8% from approximately RMB19.6 million in 9M2011 to approximately RMB12.0 million in 9M2012. The decrease is mainly due to an absence of foreign exchange losses in the current period as compared to 9M2011.

Finance costs

Finance costs increased by approximately RMB5.9 million or approximately 59.6% from approximately RMB9.9 million in 9M2011 to approximately RMB15.8 million in 9M2012. The Group secured a higher amount of borrowings to finance its working capital needs, resulting in an increase in finance costs in 9M2012 compared to that in 9M2011.

Profit before income tax

Profit before income tax decreased by approximately RMB22.8 million or approximately 23.0% from approximately RMB98.8 million in 9M2011 to approximately RMB76.0 million in 9M2012 due to lower revenue generated.

Income tax expense

The Group’s main subsidiary has been subject to an incentive tax rate of 15% as it has been awarded as a high-tech enterprise in the PRC since 2008. The decrease in income tax expenses is in line with the decrease in profit before tax for 9M2012. Accordingly, income tax expense decreased by approximately RMB4.8 million or approximately 27.1% from approximately RMB17.7 million in 9M2011 to approximately RMB12.9 million in 9M2012.

Net profit

In view of the above, net profit attributable to equity holders of the parent decreased by approximately RMB18.1 million or approximately 22.3% from approximately RMB81.2 million in 9M2011 compared to approximately RMB63.1 million in 9M2012.

Third quarter performance — Three months ended 30 September

Revenue

Group revenue decreased by approximately RMB174.1 million, or approximately 40.6% from approximately RMB429.3 million in the three months ended 30 September 2011 (“ 3Q2011 ”) to approximately RMB255.2 million in the three months ended 30 September 2012 (“ 3Q2012 ”). The decrease was due to lower spending by telecom operators in the PRC and overseas during the period.

– 21 –

RF Coaxial Cable

Revenue generated from RF Coaxial Cables decreased by approximately RMB178.8 million or approximately 49.9% from approximately RMB358.1 million in 3Q2011 to approximately RMB179.3 million in 3Q2012.

Accessories

Revenue generated from Accessories increased by approximately RMB2.9 million or approximately 4.1% from approximately RMB71.2 million in 3Q2011 to approximately RMB74.1 million in 3Q2012.

Gross profit margin

Gross profit margin for 3Q2012 stood at approximately 18.7% compared to approximately 19.0% in 3Q2011. This is due to RF Coaxial Cables which traditionally generate lower margins arising from intense competition, which is partially buoyed by relatively higher margins generated from the sale of accessories. The mix of products sold during the period resulted in a comparatively lower margin. The Group continues to monitor production efficiencies to ensure optimal raw materials utilisation, stringent selection of suppliers in tender biddings to keep costs to a minimum, coupled with efficient use of various resources to keep up with price pressures resulting from keen competition.

Other income

Other income increased by approximately RMB2.7 million or approximately 192.9% from approximately RMB1.4 million in 3Q2011 to approximately RMB4.1 million in 3Q2012. The increase arose from favourable exchange rate movements during the period, which generally resulted in foreign exchange gains.

Selling and distribution expenses

Selling and distribution expenses decreased by approximately RMB2.8 million or approximately 16.7% from approximately RMB16.8 million in 3Q2011 to approximately RMB14.0 million in 3Q2012. The decrease was in line with the Group’s lower sales generated during the financial period.

Administrative expenses

Administrative expenses was relatively constant at RMB9.1 million in 3Q2012 compared to RMB9.0 million in 3Q2011.

Other operating expenses

Other operating expenses decreased by approximately RMB7.8 million or approximately 62.4% from approximately RMB12.5 million in 3Q2011 to approximately RMB4.7 million in 3Q2012. The decrease was mainly due to foreign exchange losses incurred in the previous period.

– 22 –

Finance costs

Finance costs decreased by approximately RMB0.5 million or approximately 10.4% from approximately RMB4.8 million in 3Q2011 to approximately RMB4.3 million in 3Q2012. The Group had discounted a higher amount of bills to banks for cash in 3Q2011, resulting in a higher amount of finance costs compared to 3Q2012.

Profit before income tax

Profit before income tax decreased by approximately RMB20.1 million or approximately 50.5% from approximately RMB39.8 million in 3Q2011 to approximately RMB19.7 million in 3Q2012 as a result of lower revenue generated in 3Q2012.

Income tax expense

The Group’s main subsidiary has been subject to an incentive tax rate of 15% as it has been awarded as a high-tech enterprise in the PRC since 2008. The decrease in income tax expense is due to lower profits achieved by the Group’s main subsidiary, Jiangsu Hengxin Technology Co., Ltd in 3Q2012 compared to 3Q2011.

Net profit

In view of the above, net profit attributable to equity holders of the parent decreased by approximately RMB15.5 million or approximately 48.1% from approximately RMB32.2 million in 3Q2011 to approximately RMB16.7 million in 3Q2012.

STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION

Material fluctuations on the statement of financial position items are explained below:

Pledged bank deposits

Pledged bank deposits are used as a pledged against commercial bills used for payment to suppliers. Pledged bank deposits increased by approximately RMB1.8 million or approximately 3.4% from approximately RMB52.9 million as at 31 December 2011 to approximately RMB54.7 million as at 30 September 2012 due to a higher amount of commercial bills payable to suppliers, requiring a lower amount of bank balances required to be set aside as securities.

Trade receivables

Trade receivables increased by approximately RMB2.7 million or approximately 0.4% from approximately RMB734.6 million as at 31 December 2011 to approximately RMB737.3 million as at 30 September 2012.

Average trade receivables turnover days are 247 days as at 30 September 2012 compared to 179 days as at 31 December 2011 and 239 days as at 30 June 2012. Due to the macro-economic slowdown in the PRC, its major customers are taking a longer period in making payments. Coupled with the lower revenue generated during 3Q2012, this resulted in a higher turnover days. Nonetheless, most trade receivables balances are recent sales which are well within the average credit period given to our customers. The Group will endeavour to continue its collection efforts on the outstanding balances.

– 23 –

Other receivables and prepayments

Other receivables and prepayments increased by approximately RMB25.9 million or approximately 91.5% from approximately RMB28.3 million as at 31 December 2011 to approximately RMB54.2 million as at 30 September 2012. Due to a major tender exercise held in 2012 requiring the Group to increase its manufacturing pace and adhere to strict delivery schedules, the Group made deposits to raw material suppliers amounting RMB41.9 million as at 30 September 2012 as compared to RMB16.6 million as at 31 December 2011 so as to ensure customer requirements can be met.

Inventories

Inventories (comprising raw materials, work-in-progress and finished goods) decreased by approximately RMB28.2 million or approximately 20.8% from approximately RMB135.9 million as at 31 December 2011 to approximately RMB107.7 million as at 30 September 2012. This is due to lower sales volume resulting in a lower amount of inventories being stocked up.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment decreased by approximately RMB4.9 million or approximately 3.1% from approximately RMB157.9 million as at 31 December 2011 to approximately RMB153.0 million as at 30 September 2012 arising from addition of property, plant and equipment, which is offset by depreciation expenses during the period.

Short-term bank loans

Short-term bank loans decreased by approximately RMB7.8 million or approximately 3.4% from approximately RMB230.0 million as at 31 December 2011 to approximately RMB222.2 million in 30 September 2012 due to repayments made during the period.

Trade payables and Other payables

Trade payables decreased by approximately RMB4.4 million or approximately 1.7% from approximately RMB258.5 million as at 31 December 2011 to approximately RMB254.1 million as at 30 September 2012 in line with lower sales during 9M2012.

Other payables decreased by approximately RMB15.5 million or approximately 54.0% from approximately RMB28.7 million as at 31 December 2011 to approximately RMB13.2 million as at 30 September 2012 due to lower accruals for bonuses arising from the Group’s weak performance.

Income tax payable

Income tax payable decreased by approximately RMB9.5 million as at 30 September 2012 compared to that as at 31 December 2011. The higher balance as at 31 December 2011 related to taxes in the prior quarter which were not yet paid then, but were all paid off during the first half of the financial year 2012.

Cash and bank balances

Cash and bank balances increased RMB28.7 million or approximately 8.9% from RMB323.7 million as at 31 December 2011 compared to RMB352.4 million as at 30 September 2012 mainly due to slower payments from customers during the period.

(II) LIQUIDITY, FINANCIAL RESOURCES

In addition to its short-term interest-bearing facilities, the Group generally finances its operations from both cash flows generated internally and bank loans.

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 of the Group monitors capital based on the Group’s net gearing ratio. The Group’s 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.

(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)

The mobile communications industry remains challenging amidst intense competition. The Group continued to experience a slowdown in its RF Coaxial Cables segment, while witnessing a slight increase in demand from the Telecommunication equipment and accessories segment.

In India, the economic slowdown and intense competition have inevitably led to telecom operators looking for new ways to reduce its capital expenditure which led to the recent adoption of aluminium-made RF Coaxial cables instead of copper ones. On the foreign exchange front, the erratic fluctuations of the Indian rupee will continue to impact on our results of operations. The Group continues to keep close monitor on exchange rates and take advantage of any rate movements which will benefit the Group’s operations.

Following the recent completion of the antenna manufacturing facility and testing chamber, the Group has started work on a few prototypes of mobile communication antennas. As announced previously, the commencement of manufacture for sale is solely conditional upon the Group being able to submit its tender in time and passing tests for various products put up for tender. Nonetheless, since the completion of the manufacturing facility, there have not been any tenders released by the PRC telecom operators for the purchase of antennas to date. In view of this, the commencement of sales for antenna may be delayed as a result.

The Group continues to seek new geographical markets and customers in countering the weak demand in the PRC market, and will continue its efforts to seek potential business opportunities.
