Trillion Grand Corporate Company Limited 萬泰企業股份有限公司

(Incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability)

(Stock Code: 8103)

FINAL RESULTS ANNOUNCEMENT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2017

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE GROWTH ENTERPRISE MARKET (THE “GEM”) OF THE STOCK EXCHANGE OF HONG KONG LIMITED (THE “STOCK EXCHANGE”)

GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate companies to which a higher investment risk may be attached than other companies listed on the Stock Exchange. Prospective investors should be aware of the potential risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after due and careful consideration. The greater risk profile and other characteristics of GEM mean that it is a market more suited to professional and other sophisticated investors.

Given the emerging nature of companies listed on GEM, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the main board of the Stock Exchange and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited and the Stock Exchange take no responsibility for the contents of this announcement, make no representation as to its accuracy or completeness and expressly disclaim any liability whatsoever for any loss howsoever arising from or in reliance upon the whole or any part of the contents of this announcement.

This announcement, for which the directors (the “ Directors ”) of Trillion Grand Corporate Company Limited (the “ Company ”, together with its subsidiaries, the “ Group ”) collectively and individually accept full responsibility, includes particulars given in compliance with the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on GEM (the “ GEM Listing Rules ”) for the purpose of giving information with regard to the Company. The Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, confirm that to the best of their knowledge and belief the information contained in this announcement is accurate and complete in all material respects and not misleading or deceptive, and there are no other matters the omission of which would make any statement herein or this announcement misleading.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 31 March 2017

1. GENERAL

The Company was incorporated in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability under the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands. The address of its registered office 3rd Floor, 24 Shedden Road, P.O. Box 1586, Grand Cayman, KY1-1110, Cayman Islands. The address of its principal place of business in Hong Kong is Unit B, 29/F., CKK Commercial Centre, 289–295 Hennessy Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong. The Company’s shares are listed on Growth Enterprise Market of the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “ GEM ”).

The functional currency of the Company is Renminbi (“ RMB ”). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Hong Kong dollar (“ HK$ ”) as the directors of the Company consider that HK$ is the appropriate presentation currency for the users of the Group’s financial statements given that the shares of the Company are listed on the GEM.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Statement of Compliance and Basis of Preparation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“ HKFRSs ”) issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“ HKICPA ”). In addition, the consolidated financial statements include applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the GEM of the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “ GEM Listing Rules ”) and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for investment properties and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss which were measured at fair value, as explained in the accounting policies below. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in the exchange for goods.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these consolidated financial statements is determined on such a basis, except for share-based payment transactions that are within the scope of HKFRS 2, leasing transactions that are within the scope of HKAS 17, and measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realisable value in HKAS 2 or value in use in HKAS 36.

– 6 –

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

Statement of Compliance and Basis of Preparation (Continued)

In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:

  • Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;

  • Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

  • Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The principal accounting policies are set out in Note 4 below.

In preparing these consolidated financial statements, the directors have considered the future liquidity of the Group. As at 31 March 2017, the Group had recorded net current liabilities and net liabilities of approximately HK$153,733,000 and HK$10,627,000 respectively. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the Group may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

Notwithstanding the aforesaid conditions, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis on the assumption that the Group will be able to operate as a going concern for the foreseeable future. In the opinion of the directors, the Group can meet its financial obligations as and when they fall due within the next year from the date of the consolidated financial statements, after taking into consideration of the following measures and arrangements made subsequent to the reporting date:

  1. On 8 June 2017, the Company entered into a supplemental agreement with a third party, under which the repayment date of the other borrowing of approximately HK$ 120,343,000 has been extended to 5 May 2018. The loan carries interest at 12% per annum and was secured by the floating charge over all the assets of Group;

  2. On 9 June 2017, the Company obtained a loan facility from an independent third party up to HK$ 30,000,000. The loan carries interest at 2% per month. The facility has not been utilised up to the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements.

  3. On 13 June 2017, the Company obtained a loan facility from an independent third party up to HK$15,000,000. The loan carries interest at 12% per annum. The loan facility has been fully utilised up to the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

Statement of Compliance and Basis of Preparation (Continued)

In light of the measures and arrangements implemented to date, the directors are of the view that the Group has sufficient cash resources to satisfy its working capital and other financial obligations for the next twelve months from the date of the consolidated financial statements, after having taken into account of the Group’s projected cash flows, current financial resources and capital expenditure requirements with respect to the development of its businesses. Accordingly, the directors are of the view that it is appropriate to prepare these consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis. Should the Group be unable to continue to operate as a going concern, adjustments would have to be made to restate the value of assets to their recoverable amounts, to provide for any further liabilities which might arise and to reclassify non-current assets and non-current liabilities as current assets and current liabilities, respectively. The effects of these potential adjustments have not been reflected in these consolidated financial statements.

3. APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED HKFRSs

In the current year, the Group has adopted the following amended HKFRSs and HKASs issued by the HKICPA that are relevant to its operations and effective for its accounting year beginning on 1 April 2016.

Amendments to HKFRS 10, Investment Entities: Applying the Consolidation Exception HKFRS 12 and HKAS 28 Amendments to HKFRS 11 Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations Amendments to HKAS 1 Disclosure Initiative Amendments to HKAS 16 and Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation HKAS 38 Amendments to HKAS 16 and Agriculture: Bearer Plants HKAS 41 Amendments to HKFRSs Annual Improvements to HKFRSs 2012–2014 Cycle HKFRS 14 Regulatory Deferral Accounts Amendments to HKAS 27 (2011) Equity Method in Separate Financial Statements

Except as described below, the application of the above amendments to HKFRSs in the current year has had no material impact on the Group’s financial performance and positions for the current and prior years and/or on the disclosures set out in these consolidated financial statements.

– 8 –

3. APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED HKFRSs (CONTINUED)

Amendments to HKAS 1 “Disclosure Initiative”

The Group has applied the amendments to HKAS 1 Disclosure Initiative for the first time in the current year. The amendments to HKAS 1 clarify that an entity does not need to provide a specific disclosure required by a HKFRSs if the information resulting from that disclosure is not material, and give guidance on the bases of aggregating and disaggregating information. However, the amendments reiterate that an entity should consider providing additional disclosures when compliance with the specific requirements in HKFRS is insufficient to enable users of consolidated financial statements to understand the impact of particular transactions, events and conditions on the entity’s financial position and financial performance.

Furthermore, the amendments require that an entity’s share of the other comprehensive income of associates accounted for using the equity method should be presented separately from those arising from the Group, and should be separated into the share of items that, in accordance with other HKFRSs: (i) will not be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss; and (ii) will be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss when specific conditions are met. Other than such a change in presentation, the application of these amendments has not resulted in any impact on the financial performance or financial position of the Group.

3. APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED HKFRSs (CONTINUED)

HKFRS 9 Financial Instruments

HKFRS 9 has introduced new requirements for a) classification and measurement of financial assets, b) impairment of financial assets and c) general hedge accounting.

Specifically, with regard to the classification and measurement of financial assets, HKFRS 9 requires all recognised financial assets that are within the scope of HKFRS 9 to be subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value. Debt investments that are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows, and that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding are generally measured at amortised cost at the end of each of the subsequent accounting periods. Debt investments that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved both by collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and that have contractual terms that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, are generally measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI). All other debt investments and equity investments are measured at their fair value at the end of subsequent accounting periods. Further, under HKFRS 9, entities may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an equity investment (that is not held for trading nor contingent consideration recognised by an acquirer in a business combination to which HKFRS 3 applies) in other comprehensive income, with only dividend income generally recognised in profit or loss and that cumulative fair value changes will not be reclassified to profit or loss upon derecognition of the investment.

With regard to the measurement of financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss, HKFRS 9 requires that the amount of change in the fair value of a financial liability that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of that liability is presented in other comprehensive income, unless the recognition of such changes in other comprehensive income would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch in profit or loss. Changes in fair value attributable to a financial liability’s credit risk are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss. Under HKAS 39, the entire amount of the change in the fair value of the financial liability designated as fair value through profit or loss is presented in profit or loss.

With regard to impairment of financial assets, HKFRS 9 has adopted an expected credit loss model, as opposed to an incurred credit loss model required under HKAS 39. In general, the expected credit loss model requires an entity to assess the change in credit risk of the financial asset since initial recognition at each reporting date and to recognise the expected credit loss depending on the degree of the change in credit risk.

With regard to the general hedge accounting requirements, HKFRS 9 retains the three types of hedge accounting mechanisms currently available in HKAS 39. Under HKFRS 9, greater flexibility has been introduced to the types of transactions eligible for hedge accounting, specifically broadening the types of instruments that qualify for hedging instruments and the types of risk components of non-financial items that are eligible for hedge accounting. In addition, the effectiveness test has been overhauled and replaced with the principle of an ‘economic relationship’. Retrospective assessment of hedge effectiveness is also no longer required. Enhanced disclosure requirements about an entity’s risk management activities have also been introduced.

The Group is still in the process of assessing the impact of HKFRS 9. The directors of the Company believe that it is impractical to disclose the impact in these consolidated financial statements until the Group has completed the assessment.

– 10 –

3. APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED HKFRSs (CONTINUED)

HKFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

HKFRS 15 establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. HKFRS 15 will supersede the current revenue recognition guidance including HKAS 18 Revenue, HKAS 11 Construction Contracts and the related Interpretations when it becomes effective.

The core principle of HKFRS 15 is that an entity should recognise revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Specifically, HKFRS 15 introduces a 5-step approach to revenue recognition:

  • Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer

  • Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract

  • Step 3: Determine the transaction price

  • Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

  • Step 5: Recognise revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation

Under HKFRS 15, an entity recognises revenue when (or as) a performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. when “control” of the goods or services underlying the particular performance obligation is transferred to the customer. Far more prescriptive guidance has been added in HKFRS 15 to deal with specific scenarios. Furthermore, extensive disclosures are required by HKFRS 15.

In 2016, the HKICPA issued Clarifications to HKFRS 15 in relation to the identification of performance obligations, principal versus agent consideration, as well as licensing application guidance.

The directors of the Company anticipate that the application of HKFRS 15 in the future may result in more disclosures. As for the timing and amounts of revenue recognised in respective reporting period, the Group is still in the process of assessing the impact of HKFRS 15. The directors of the Company believe that it is impractical to disclose the impact in these consolidated financial statements until the Group has completed the assessment.

HKFRS 16 Leases

HKFRS 16 will supersede the current lease guidance including HKAS 17 Leases and the related interpretations when it becomes effective.

With regard to lessee accounting, the distinction of operating leases and finance leases, as required by HKAS 17, has been replaced by a model which requires a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability to be recognised for all leases by lessees except for short-term leases and leases of low value assets. Specifically, the right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost (subject to certain exceptions) less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, adjusted for any re-measurement of the lease liability. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. Subsequently, the lease liability is adjusted for interest and lease payments. Furthermore, the classification of cash flows will also be affected as operating lease payments under HKAS 17 are presented as operating cash flows; whereas, under the HKFRS 16 model, the lease payments will be split into a principal and an interest portion which will be presented as financing and operating cash flows respectively.

With regard to lessor accounting, HKFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in HKAS 17, and continues to require a lessor to classify a lease either as an operating lease or a finance lease.

Furthermore, HKFRS 16 requires extensive disclosures in the financial statements.

The Group is in the process of assessing the impact of HKFRS 16. The directors of the Company believe that it is impractical to disclose the impact in these consolidated financial statements until the Group has completed the assessment.

3. APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED HKFRSs (CONTINUED)

Amendments to HKAS 7 Disclosure Initiative

The amendments require an entity to make disclosures that enable users of financial statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities. The directors of the Company do not anticipate that the application of these amendments will have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

6. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Group has adopted HKFRS 8 “Operating Segments” which requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker for the purpose of allocating resources to segments and assessing their performance.

During the current year, the Group commenced its property investment business in Hong Kong which formed a separate operating division of the Group. Therefore, the Group is currently organised into five operating divisions — systems development, professional services, proprietary trading, money lending and property investment which represent the Group’s five operating segments. During the year ended 31 March 2016, the Group has four operating divisions — systems development, professional services, proprietary trading and money lending which represent the Group’s four operating segments.

  • Provision of systems development, maintenance and installation as well as consulting service and software licensing.

  • — Provision of information technology engineering and technical support services including financial valuation and IT service.

Systems development

— Professional services including financial valuation and IT service. — Proprietary trading Trading of listed securities in Hong Kong. — Money lending Provision of financing services in Hong Kong. — Property investment Lease of property in Hong Kong.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as the Group’s accounting policies. Segment results represents the results of each segment without allocation of interest income, certain other income and gains and other expenses and losses (including central administration costs and directors’ remunerations and finance costs) and share of results of an associate. This is the measure reported to the chief operating decision maker of the Group for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance.

16. ACQUISITION OF ASSETS THROUGH ACQUISITION OF SUBSIDIARIES

Cicero Capital Limited and its subsidiary (“CCL Group”)

On 8 August 2016, the Group has entered into a sales and purchase agreement with an independent third party for the acquisition of 100% of the issued share capital of CCL Group at a cash consideration of HK$128,000,000. The CCL Group is the legal and beneficial owner of a landed property situated with 3 car parking spaces located in Hong Kong. The acquisition was completed on 12 October 2016.

CCL has not carried out any businesses on acquisition date. In the opinion of the directors, the acquisition did not constitute an acquisition of business in substance within the scope of HKFRS 3 Business Combinations. The acquisition of the investment property was then considered as acquisition of assets through acquisition of subsidiaries.

The following summarises the consideration paid and the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition:

17. ACQUISITION OF SUBSIDIARIES (CONTINUED)

Impact of the acquisition on the results of the Group

Since the acquisition, MPL Group contributed approximately HK$5,939,000 to the Group’s revenue and approximately HK$875,000 to the consolidated profit for the year ended 31 March 2017.

If the acquisition of the MPL Group had been completed on 1 April 2016, the revenue of the Group and loss of the Group for the year ended 31 March 2017 would have been approximately HK$31,462,000 and HK$38,918,000 respectively. The pro forma information is for illustrative purpose only and is not necessarily an indication of revenue and results of operation of the Group that actually would have been achieved had the acquisition been completed on 1 April 2016, nor is it intended to be a projection of future results.

18. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

On 4 April 2014, the Company was served with a sealed copy of a petition (the “ Petition ”) issued by Metal Winner Limited (“ MWL ”) in Companies (Winding-up) Proceedings No. 83 of 2014 in the High Court of Hong Kong (the “ Winding-up Proceedings ”) under which MWL (a) claimed that the Company was indebted to MWL in the sum of HK$5,700,000; and (b) petitioned that the Company be wound up by the Court. As at the date of this announcement, this Petition was dismissed by the High Court of Hong Kong. Separately, there are two other parties who claimed the Company was indebted to them. After investigation, the Company found that the alleged debts claimed by these two parties arose from certain dealings between a former director of the Company and these two parties. The nature and mechanism of these dealings were the same or very similar to that of MWL’s. In the Winding-up Proceedings, the court has found that there was an illegal scheme perpetrated on the Company by the aforesaid former director and MWL was a party to that scheme. In gist, the illegal scheme was that the aforesaid former director obtained loans from the counterparty and the Company was falsely made as a borrower to answer the repayment obligation. The Company commenced legal proceedings in the High Court (the “ Injunction Proceedings ”) against these two parties seeking an injunction to restrain them from presenting any petition for the winding-up of the Company or to apply to substitute MWL as petitioner in the Winding-up Proceedings (the “ Restrained Acts ”). The two parties gave an undertaking to the court not to do the Restrained Acts until the resolution of the Injunction Proceedings.

After the Winding-up Proceedings were dismissed by court, the Company also managed to resolve the Injunction Proceedings by way of a consent order after the two parties were willing to give further undertaking to the court not to present any petition for the winding-up of the Company pending determination of the Writ of Summons to be issued (if any) by them against the Company for recovery of the said alleged debts and/or the determination of any counterclaims or the Writ of Summons to be issued (if any) by the Company against them for declaratory relief that the said alleged debts are void or unenforceable.

On 19 February 2016, the Company has been served with a sealed copy of the Writ of Summons (the “ Writ ”) issued by one of the two parties sued in the Injunction Proceedings (the “ Plaintiff ”). Under the statement of claim endorsed on the Writ, the Plaintiff claims against the Company for a total sum of HK$16,600,000 allegedly due on the dishonoured cheques issued by the Company and interest thereon.

In view of the Court’s favourable findings in the Winding-up Proceedings and the striking similarity between the case of the Plaintiff and that of MWL in the Winding-up Proceedings, the Company believes that it has strong merits in defending the Plaintiff’s claims and in counter-claiming such alleged debts are void and unenforceable. Therefore, the Company will vigorously contend the Plaintiff’s claims and will seek legal advice to take all appropriate steps in the legal proceedings to safeguard the Company’s interest.

19. EVENT AFTER REPORTING PERIOD

On 30 December 2016, the Group has entered into an agreement with an independent third party for the acquisition of 20% equity interest in Billion Ray Investments Limited at a consideration of HK$100,000,000 which will satisfied by issuance of promissory note at principle amount of HK$100,000,000.

FWI Group engaged in the business of providing multi-media related services and content in the PRC via different platforms like cable TV.

BUSINESS PERFORMANCE AND PROSPECT

System development and professional services

The Company was facing the fierce competition of thermal powered electricity supply market in the People’s Republic of China (“ PRC ”) during the year ended 31 March 2017 and management expects this phenomenon will continue in the foreseeable future. This was explained by the PRC government promoting the use of renewable and/or clean energy with direct subsidies and has implemented the benchmark for reduction of omission of carbon dioxide in various cities in the PRC. As a result, the number and amount of new contracts have decreased compared with the corresponding year in 2016.

Proprietary trading business

In relation to the Group’s proprietary trading business, the global market continued to fill with uncertainties for the year ended 31 March 2017. Donald Trump’s victory from the U.S. Presidential Election and “Brexit” has led to market with shock. Together with the continuing depreciation pressure of renminbi, investors are more conservative to the economic outlook of the future. These factors have led to a negative impact to the Hong Kong stock market and negative change in fair value of its financial assets at fair value through profit or loss of the Group. Looking forward, the implementation of Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect and the possibility of inclusion of A-shares into MSCI’s indices will both attract capital inflow into the market and a market re-valuation is likely happen. The turnover in proprietary trading business recorded approximately HK$147.5 million for the year ended 31 March 2017 (2016: HK$39.7 million). The securities investment portfolio amounted to approximately HK$84.4 million as at 31 March 2017 (2016: HK$3.5 million). The Group is actively seeking opportunities in securities investment which will create value and will be beneficial to the Group and Shareholders. The Group also maintains a risk management policy in which key risk factors such as government and politic risks, country risks, price risks, interest rate risks, currency risks and economic risks have been identified and will be closely monitored.

Money lending business

Though the loan and credit market became very active and intense competition existed during the past few years as a result of the rapid booming housing market in Hong Kong and the global low interest rate environment, the Board is confident that through its long established relationship, history, reputation, network and synergy, the Group is able to participate in the market share of the money lending business and it will become one of the driver of its future profits of the Group. In view of the above, the Board will invest more resources into the business once financing resources have been obtained. In addition to the consumable loan, the Company is planning to offer a variety of loan products to secured mortgage loans to individual, unsecured loan, small and medium sized enterprises loans, debts consolidation loan and corporate loans. Despite the above, the money lending business is suffering from political risk, regulatory risk, credit risk, economic risk and industry risk. The interest income in money lending business recorded approximately HK$1.1 million for the year ended 31 March 2017 (2016: HK$0.3 million). The loan portfolio amounted HK$10 million as at 31 March 2017 (2016: HK$Nil).

LITIGATION

On 4 April 2014, the Company was served with a sealed copy of a petition (the “ Petition ”) issued by Metal Winner Limited (“ MWL ”) in Companies (Winding-up) Proceedings No. 83 of 2014 in the High Court of Hong Kong (the “ Winding-up Proceedings ”) under which MWL (a) claimed that the Company was indebted to MWL in the sum of HK$5,700,000; and (b) petitioned that the Company be wound up by the Court. As at the date of this announcement, this Petition was dismissed by the High Court of Hong Kong. Separately, there are two other parties who claimed the Company was indebted to them. After investigation, the Company found that the alleged debts claimed by these two parties arose from certain dealings between a former director of the Company and these two parties. The nature and mechanism of these dealings were the same or very similar to that of MWL’s. In the Winding-up Proceedings, the court has found that there was an illegal scheme perpetrated on the Company by the aforesaid former director and MWL was a party to that scheme. In gist, the illegal scheme was that the aforesaid former director obtained loans from the counterparty and the Company was falsely made as a borrower to answer the repayment obligation. The Company commenced legal proceedings in the High Court (the “ Injunction Proceedings ”) against these two parties seeking an injunction to restrain them from presenting any petition for the winding-up of the Company or to apply to substitute MWL as petitioner in the Winding-up Proceedings (the “ Restrained Acts ”). The two parties gave an undertaking to the court not to do the Restrained Acts until the resolution of the Injunction Proceedings.

After the Winding-up Proceedings were dismissed by court, the Company also managed to resolve the Injunction Proceedings by way of a consent order after the two parties were willing to give further undertaking to the court not to present any petition for the winding-up of the Company pending determination of the Writ of Summons to be issued (if any) by them against the Company for recovery of the said alleged debts and/or the determination of any counterclaims or the Writ of Summons to be issued (if any) by the Company against them for declaratory relief that the said alleged debts are void or unenforceable.

On 19 February 2016, the Company has been served with a sealed copy of the Writ of Summons (the “ Writ ”) issued by one of the two parties sued in the Injunction Proceedings (the “ Plaintiff ”). Under the statement of claim endorsed on the Writ, the Plaintiff claims against the Company for a total sum of HK$16,600,000 allegedly due on the dishonoured cheques issued by the Company and interest thereon.

In view of the Court’s favourable findings in the Winding-up Proceedings and the striking similarity between the case of the Plaintiff and that of MWL in the Winding-up Proceedings, the Company believes that it has strong merits in defending the Plaintiff’s claims and in counter-claiming such alleged debts are void and unenforceable. Therefore, the Company will vigorously contend the Plaintiff’s claims and will seek legal advice to take all appropriate steps in the legal proceedings to safeguard the Company’s interest.

The Company will keep the shareholders of the Company updated with the development of the aforesaid proceedings.
