Half year performance — Six months ended 30 June

Material changes are explained below:

Revenue

Revenue increased by approximately RMB220.1 million, or approximately 43.7% from approximately RMB503.2 million in the six months ended 30 June 2013 (“ 1H2013 ”) to approximately RMB723.3 million in the six months ended 30 June 2014 (“ 1H2014 ”) due to increased orders for the Group’s products during the period.

RF Coaxial Cable

Revenue generated from RF Coaxial Cables increased by approximately RMB143.1 million or approximately 37.0% from approximately RMB387.0 million in 1H2013 to approximately RMB530.1 million in 1H2014.

Telecommunication equipment and accessories

Revenue generated from Accessories increased by approximately RMB60.5 million or approximately 53.4% from approximately RMB113.4 million in 1H2013 to approximately RMB173.9 million in 1H2014.

Others (HTRC and Antenna)

Revenue generated in this segment increased by approximately RMB16.5 million or approximately 589.3% from approximately RMB2.8 million in 1H2013 to approximately RMB19.3 million in 1H2014.

Gross profit margin

The Group achieved an overall gross profit margin of approximately 16.6% in 1H2014 compared to approximately 19.7% in 1H2013. Increased competition has led to continuing pressures on the Group’s selling prices during the period. The Group continues to monitor production efficiencies to ensure optimal raw materials and labour 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 RMB1.7 million or approximately 38.6% from approximately RMB4.4 million in 1H2013 to approximately RMB6.1 million in 1H2014, which is due to higher government grants awarded to the Group’s key subsidiary, Jiangsu Hengxin Technology Co., Ltd. and a gain in foreign exchange during the period as compared to a loss in the corresponding period.

Selling and distribution expenses

Selling and distribution expenses increased by approximately RMB10.5 million or approximately 43.6% from approximately RMB24.1 million in 1H2013 to approximately RMB34.6 million in 1H2014, which is in line with the Group’s higher sales during the period.

– 20 –

Administrative expenses

Administrative expenses decreased by approximately RMB0.7 million or approximately 4.0% from approximately RMB17.5 million in 1H2013 to approximately RMB16.8 million in 1H2014. The decrease is due to certain cost reductions during the period.

Other operating expenses

Other operating expenses increased by approximately RMB1.9 million or approximately 14.3% from approximately RMB13.3 million in 1H2013 to approximately RMB15.2 million in 1H2014. The increase arose from continued customer requests for new product specifications during the period.

Finance costs

Finance costs increased by approximately RMB0.3 million or approximately 15.0% from approximately RMB2.0 million in 1H2013 to approximately RMB2.3 million in 1H2014 due to higher level of borrowings during the period.

Profit before income tax

Profit before income tax increased by approximately RMB10.5 million or approximately 22.4% from approximately RMB46.8 million in 1H2013 to approximately RMB57.3 million in 1H2014 due to increased revenue during the period.

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 2011.

Income tax expense decreased by approximately RMB3.6 million or approximately 26.1% from approximately RMB13.8 million in 1H2013 to approximately RMB10.2 million in 1H2014. The decrease in income tax expenses is due to an absence of withholding taxes of approximately RMB5.0 million being paid for inter-company dividends declared from the Group’s China subsidiary to its holding company in 1H2013.

Net profit

In view of the above, net profit attributable to equity holders of the parent increased by approximately RMB14.1 million or approximately 42.7% from approximately RMB33.0 million in 1H2013 compared to approximately RMB47.1 million in 1H2014.

Second quarter performance — Three months ended 30 June

Telecommunication equipment and accessories

Revenue generated from Accessories increased by approximately RMB35.6 million or approximately 53.3% from approximately RMB66.8 million in 2Q2013 to approximately RMB102.4 million in 2Q2014.

Others (HTRC and Antenna)

Revenue generated in this segment increased by approximately RMB6.9 million or approximately 862.5% from approximately RMB0.8 million in 2Q2013 to approximately RMB7.7 million in 2Q2014.

Gross profit margin

Gross profit margin for 2Q2014 stood at approximately 16.5% compared to approximately 20.1% in 2Q2013, primarily due to increased competition leading to continued pressures on the Group’s selling prices during the period.

Other income

Other income increased by approximately RMB1.8 million or approximately 120.0% from approximately RMB1.5 million in 2Q2013 to approximately RMB3.3 million in 2Q2014 as a result of higher interest income and government grants received during the period.

Selling and distribution expenses

Selling and distribution expenses increased by approximately RMB6.7 million or approximately 52.8% from approximately RMB12.7 million in 2Q2013 to approximately RMB19.4 million in 2Q2014, which is in line with the Group’s increased revenue during the period.

Administrative expenses

Administrative expenses increased by approximately RMB0.9 million or approximately 10.3% from approximately RMB8.7 million in 2Q2013 to approximately RMB9.6 million in 2Q2014. The increase is due to an increase in staff costs which are partially offset by certain cost reduction during the period.

Other operating expenses

Other operating expenses decreased by approximately RMB1.1 million or approximately 13.3% from approximately RMB8.3 million in 2Q2013 to approximately RMB7.2 million in 2Q2014. The decrease was due to foreign exchange losses in 2Q2013 as compared to a gain in 2Q2014.

Finance costs

Finance costs increased by approximately RMB0.8 million or approximately 200.0% from approximately RMB0.4 million in 2Q2013 to approximately RMB1.2 million in 2Q2014 as there were a higher level of borrowings in 2014 compared to the same period in 2013.

– 22 –

Profit before income tax

Profit before income tax increased by approximately RMB2.2 million or approximately 6.9% from approximately RMB31.9 million in 2Q2013 to approximately RMB34.1 million in 2Q2014 as a result of increased revenue during the period.

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 2011. The increase in income tax expenses is due to withholding taxes of RMB5.0 million being paid for dividends declared from the Group’s China subsidiary to its holding company during the period.

Income tax expense decreased by approximately RMB3.8 million or approximately 35.8% from approximately RMB10.6 million in 2Q2013 to approximately RMB6.8 million in 2Q2014. The decrease is due to an absence of withholding taxes of approximately RMB5.0 million being paid for inter-company dividends declared from the Group’s China subsidiary to its holding company in 2Q2013.

Net profit

In view of the above, net profit attributable to equity holders of the parent increased by approximately RMB6.2 million or approximately 29.2% from approximately RMB21.2 million in 2Q2013 to approximately RMB27.4 million in 2Q2014.

Statement of Financial Position

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

Pledged bank deposits

Pledged bank deposits are used as security for commercial bills used for payment to suppliers. Pledged bank deposits increased by approximately RMB20.8 million or approximately 1,040.0% from approximately RMB2.0 million as at 31 December 2013 to approximately RMB22.8 million as at 30 June 2014 mainly due to funds being pledged to a bank for a bank borrowing during the period.

Trade receivables

Trade receivables increased by approximately RMB98.1 million or approximately 14.9% from approximately RMB656.8 million as at 31 December 2013 to approximately RMB754.9 million as at 30 June 2014.

Average trade receivables turnover days are 192 days as at 30 June 2014 compared to 193 days as at 31 December 2013 and 211 days as at 31 March 2014.

Nonetheless, most trade receivables balances are recent sales which are well within the average credit period given to our customers.

For amounts due more than six months and longer, these mainly pertain to final payment (upon project completion) owed by the three main PRC telecom operators. These outstanding balances relate to projects undertaken by these operators which had longer project completion date than as initially anticipated. These operators have been the Group’s long-time customers and the

– 23 –

Group has been receiving regular payments from them. In view of the Group’s long-standing dealings with them and the regular receipts it had obtained from these customers, the Group does not foresee any issue in the collection of these receivables.

The Group will endeavour to continue its collection efforts on the outstanding balances.

Other receivables and prepayments

Other receivables and prepayments increased by approximately RMB45.5 million or approximately 116.4% from approximately RMB39.1 million as at 31 December 2013 to approximately RMB84.6 million as at 30 June 2014. Of this balance, approximately RMB46.9 million relates to advances made to suppliers, compared to approximately RMB10.0 million as at 31 December 2013. The increase in such advances was to enable the Group obtain better pricing from suppliers.

Inventories

Inventories (comprising raw materials, work-in-progress and finished goods) decreased by approximately RMB47.3 million or approximately 25.9% from approximately RMB182.5 million as at 31 December 2013 to approximately RMB135.2 million as at 30 June 2014. The decrease is in response to relatively lower orders during the end of the financial period.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment increased by approximately RMB5.1 million or approximately 3.6% from approximately RMB143.6 million as at 31 December 2013 to approximately RMB148.7 million as at 30 June 2014. During the period, the Group, through an agreement entered into with Yixing Ruidi Copper Co., Ltd, agreed to acquire a dormitory amounting to approximately RMB 7.2 million.

The above purchase accounted mainly for the increase during the period.

Leasehold Land

Leasehold land increased by approximately RMB 36.5 million or approximately 193.1% from approximately RMB 18.9 million as at 31 December 2013 to approximately RMB 55.4 million as at 30 June 2014. During the period, the Group, through an agreement entered into with Yixing Ruidi Copper Co., Ltd, agreed to acquire certain leasehold land for its own use, amounting to a total of approximately RMB 35.8 million. Part of the purchase price was being offset against the deposit paid amounting to approximately RMB 5.76 million which was previously classified as “Other receivables and prepayments” under non-current assets.

Short-term bank loans

Short-term bank loans decreased by approximately RMB136.7 million or approximately 77.3% from approximately RMB176.8 million as at 31 December 2013 to approximately RMB40.1 million as at 30 June 2014 due to a loan repayment made during the financial period.

Cash and bank balances decreased RMB289.5 million or approximately 77.8% from RMB372.2 million as at 31 December 2013 compared to RMB82.7 million as at 30 June 2014 mainly due to the increased use of working capital from higher sales achieved and a repayment of bank borrowings during the period.

(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 of the Group 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.

(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 growth of OTT (Over-The-Top) services have continued to change the broad telecommunications landscape, witnessing a trend of telecommunication services gradually using alternative technologies, such as through ISPs (Internet Service Providers). As a result, the rate of revenue increase from telecommunications services has tapered over the years. Telecom operators therefore are adopting a more conservative approach in capital spending.

China issued 4G licenses to the three major telecom operators in the PRC in December 2013. This directly increased our sales during the first half of 2014. As described above, the adoption of the old models of simply adding capacity due to increasing demand would inadvertently increase telecom operators’ capital expenditure. Hence telecom operators are exploring efficient uses of existing infrastructure and assets, which could potentially affect the demand for our products.

4G telecommunications require a much higher data capacity and transmission, and this constraint has led to smaller but a larger number of base stations being built but covering a smaller area with higher transmission capacity. These newer base stations adopt smaller sized cables, which have lower selling prices compared to larger cables. However, technology evolvement has also led to other possible alternative products to be used on base stations. The combination of the above elements, coupled with rising competition between telecom operators and telecom equipment suppliers alike are exacting an impact on our margins moving forward.

Looking ahead, the telecoms industry especially in the area of RF cabling systems continues to remain challenging. The Group will continue its efforts to monitor changing market conditions closely, make proactive refinements on the business strategies. Resources will also be devoted to broadening its product variety as well as enhancing its branding.
