A copy of each of the Prospectus Documents, together with the documents specified in the paragraph headed “13.

Underwriter to the Rights Issue

Capitalised terms used in this cover have the same meanings as those defined in this Prospectus.

It should be noted that the Consolidated Shares have been dealt in on an ex-rights basis from Friday, 28 August 2020. Dealings in the Rights Shares in their nil-paid form will take place from 9:00 a.m. on Thursday, 10 September 2020 to 4:00 p.m. on Thursday, 17 September 2020 (both days inclusive). If the conditions of the Rights Issue are not fulfilled or waived (as applicable) or the Underwriting Agreement is terminated by the Underwriter at or before 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, 23 September 2020 (or such other time or date as may be agreed between the Company and the Underwriter in writing), the Rights Issue will not proceed. Any persons contemplating dealings in the Shares up to the date on which all the conditions of the Rights Issue are fulfilled or waived (as applicable) and the date on which the Underwriter’s right of termination of the Underwriting Agreement ceases, and/or dealings in the nil-paid Rights Shares, shall bear the risk that the Rights Issue may not become unconditional or may not proceed. Any Shareholders or other persons contemplating any dealings in the Shares and/or the nil-paid Rights Shares are recommended to consult their own professional advisers and exercise caution.

Accordingly, the Rights Issue may or may not proceed.

The procedures for acceptance and payment and/or transfer of the Rights Shares and application and payment for excess Rights Shares are set out on pages 30 to 34 of this Prospectus.

CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM

GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate small and mid-sized 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.

Given that the companies listed on GEM are generally small and mid-sized companies, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the Main Board and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Subscription Price was determined after arm’s length negotiation between the Company and the Underwriter with reference to, among others, the market price of the Shares under the prevailing market conditions, the financial condition of the Company, the consecutive loss-making history of the Group over the past five years, and the reasons and benefits of Rights Issue as discussed in the section headed “REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE RIGHTS ISSUE AND USE OF PROCEEDS” in this Prospectus.

The Company has approached a total of four financial institutions to see if they were interested to support any fund-raising exercises of the Company without proposing any specific terms in the first place. However, except for the Underwriter, no positive feedbacks were received by the Company from the other three financial institutions. The Underwriter is the only available securities house who agrees to provide underwriting service for the Rights Issue at current fund-raising size on a fully-underwritten basis after considering the Company’s business scale, financial performance of the Group and recent market sentiment.

The subscription ratio and the Subscription Price were determined between the Company and the Underwriter after arm’s length negotiation. During the course of negotiation, based on the funding needs of the Group of around HK$60 million, prior to arriving at the current structure of the Rights Issue, the Company has proposed different structures of rights issue with lower subscription ratio and higher subscription prices (the “ Proposals ”). However, the Underwriter refused the Proposals. After further discussion, the Underwriter agreed with the terms of the Rights Issue, including the subscription basis of 5 Rights Shares for every 1 Consolidated Share and the Subscription Price of HK$0.85. After balancing the funding needs of the Company of around HK$60 million and request of the Underwriter for deeper discount in order for the Underwriter to provide underwriting service on a fully-written basis so as to provide the Group with the certainty of the required minimum level of fund for settlement of its matured indebtedness, the Company and the Underwriter agreed with the current structure of the Rights Issue. The Directors are of the view that the present terms and structure of the Rights Issue reflect the best commercial deal that the Company could negotiate with the Underwriter.

Taking into account that (i) the fund-raising size of the Rights Issue of HK$60.5 million is approximately 80.1% more than the market capitalization of approximately HK$33.6 million of the Company as at the date of the Underwriting Agreement, it is necessary to set the Subscription Price at relatively deep discount for inducing the Underwriter to provide underwriting service for the Rights Issue on a fully-underwritten basis and attracting all of the Qualifying Shareholders to participate in the Rights Issue; (ii) the discount of the Subscription Price gives each Qualifying Shareholder the option to maintain their respective shareholding in the Company at a relatively low price as compared to the prevailing market price, allowing them to have greater flexibility in determining the extent of their participation in the Rights Issue; and (iii) present subscription basis can avoid fractional Consolidated Shares and minimize the potential of odd lots problem, the Board considers that the terms of the Rights Issue, including the Subscription Price and the subscription basis are fair and reasonable and in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Status of the Rights Shares

The Rights Shares (when allotted, fully paid or credited as fully paid and issued) will rank pari passu in all respects among themselves and with the Consolidated Shares in issue on the date of allotment and issue of the Rights Shares. Holders of the fully paid Rights Shares will be entitled to receive all future dividends and distributions which may be declared, made or paid on or after the date of allotment and issue of the fully paid Rights Shares. Dealings in the Rights Shares in both their nil-paid and fully-paid forms will be subject to payment of stamp duty, Stock Exchange trading fee, transaction levy or any other applicable fees and charges in Hong Kong.

Qualifying Shareholders

The Rights Issue is only available to the Qualifying Shareholders. To qualify for the Rights Issue, a Shareholder must be registered as a member of the Company as at the close of business on the Record Date and not be a Non-Qualifying Shareholder. The Company will despatch the Prospectus Documents to the Qualifying Shareholders and despatch the Prospectus (without the PAL(s) and the EAF(s)) to the Non-Qualifying Shareholders for their information only.

Basis of provisional allotments

The Rights Shares will be allotted on the basis of five (5) Rights Shares for every one (1) Consolidated Share held by the Qualifying Shareholders as at the close of business on the Record Date.

Acceptance for all or any part of a Qualifying Shareholder’s provisional allotment should be made only by completing a PAL and lodging the same with a remittance for the Rights Shares being accepted with the Registrar by the Latest Time for Acceptance.

Rights of Overseas Shareholders

The Prospectus Documents to be issued in connection with the Rights Issue will not be registered or filed under the securities law of any jurisdiction other than Hong Kong. Overseas Shareholders may not be eligible to take part in the Rights Issue as explained below.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, there is one Overseas Shareholder with registered address located in the People’s Republic of China (the “ PRC ”) holding 10 Consolidated Shares. In compliance with Rule 17.41(1) of the GEM Listing Rules, the Directors have made enquiries regarding the feasibility of extending the Rights Issue to the Overseas Shareholder. Based on the advice provided by the legal adviser as to the laws of the PRC, as at the Latest Practicable Date, the laws of the PRC impose no restrictions on extending the Rights Issue to such Overseas Shareholder located in the PRC, and the Company is not required to obtain any approvals for the despatch of the Prospectus Documents to such Overseas Shareholder. Accordingly, there was no Non-Qualifying Shareholder as at the Latest Practicable Date.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Application for the excess Rights Shares

Qualifying Shareholders shall be entitled to apply, by way of excess application, for (i) the Rights Shares representing the entitlement of the Non-Qualifying Shareholders and which cannot be sold at a net premium; and (ii) any Rights Shares provisionally allotted but not validly accepted by the Qualifying Shareholders or transferees of nil-paid Rights Shares. Applications for the excess Rights Shares may be made by completing the EAF and lodging the same with a separate remittance for the excess Rights Shares being applied for with the Registrar by the Latest Time for Acceptance.

The Board will allocate the excess Rights Shares at its discretion, but on a fair and equitable basis as far as practicable on the following principles:

  • (i) no preference will be given to applications for topping-up odd-lot holdings to whole-lot holdings as the giving of such preference may potentially be abused by certain investors by splitting their Shares and thereby receiving more Rights Shares than they would receive if such preference is not given, which is an unintended and undesirable result; and

  • (ii) the excess Rights Shares will be allocated to the applicants on a pro rata basis based on the number of excess Rights Shares applied for by them. No reference will be made to Rights Shares subscribed through PALs, or the number of Shares held by the Qualifying Shareholders.

Any Rights Shares not accepted for by the Qualifying Shareholders or transferees of nil-paid Rights Shares and not taken by excess application will be taken up by the Underwriter pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement.

Beneficial owners of Consolidated Shares whose Consolidated Shares are held by a nominee company (including HKSCC Nominees Limited) should note that for the purpose of the Rights Issue, the Board will regard the nominee company as a single Shareholder according to the register of members of the Company. Accordingly, the beneficial owners of Consolidated Shares whose Consolidated Shares are registered in name of nominee companies should note that the aforesaid arrangement in relation to the allocation of the excess Rights Shares will not be extended to beneficial owners individually and are advised to consider whether they would like to arrange for registration of the relevant Consolidated Shares in the name of the beneficial owner(s) prior to the Record Date.

Certificates of the Rights Shares and refund cheques for the Rights Issue

Subject to fulfilment of the conditions of the Rights Issue, share certificates for the fully-paid Rights Shares are expected to be sent on or before Wednesday, 30 September 2020 to those entitled thereto by ordinary post, at their own risk, to their registered addresses. If the Underwriting Agreement is terminated or not becoming unconditional, refund cheques will be despatched on or before Wednesday, 30 September 2020 by ordinary post, at the respective Shareholders’ own risk, to their registered addresses. Refund cheques in respect of wholly or partially unsuccessful applications for excess Rights Shares (if any) are expected to be posted on or before Wednesday, 30 September 2020, by ordinary post to the applicants, at their own risk, to their registered addresses.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Fractional entitlement to the Rights Shares

Taxation

Shareholders are advised to consult their professional advisers if they are in any doubt as to the taxation implications of the receipt, purchase, holding, exercising, disposing of or dealing in, the nil-paid Rights Shares or the Rights Shares and, regarding the Non-Qualifying Shareholders, their receipt of the net proceeds, if any, from sale of the nil-paid Rights Shares on their behalf.

Application for listing

The Company has made an application to the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange for the listing of, and the permission to deal in, the Rights Shares (in both nil-paid and fully-paid forms) to be issued and allotted pursuant to the Rights Issue. No part of the securities of the Company is listed or dealt in, and no listing of or permission to deal in any such securities is being or is proposed to be sought, on any other stock exchanges.

The board lot size of the nil-paid Rights Shares shall be the same as that of the fully-paid Rights Shares, i.e. 6,000 Consolidated Shares in one board lot.

Subject to the granting of the listing of, and the permission to deal in, the Rights Shares (in both their nil-paid and fully-paid forms) on the Stock Exchange as well as compliance with the stock admission requirements of HKSCC, the Rights Shares (in both their nil-paid and fully-paid forms) will be accepted as eligible securities by HKSCC for deposit, clearance and settlement in CCASS with effect from the respective commencement dates of dealings in the Rights Shares in their nil-paid and fully-paid forms on the Stock Exchange, or such other dates as determined by HKSCC. Settlement of transactions between participants of the Stock Exchange on any trading day is required to take place in CCASS on the second trading day thereafter. All activities under CCASS are subject to the General Rules of CCASS and CCASS Operational Procedures in effect from time to time.

As at 31 July 2020, the Matured Indebtedness with aggregate outstanding amount of approximately HK$61.2 million had already been expired for over 10 months. As such, the Group has an imminent need of funding to cope with the Matured Indebtedness.

For the Overdue Loans, the Company has been negotiating with the Creditor A and the Creditor B since May 2019 for loan extension based on existing terms. In February 2020, the Creditor A and the Creditor B indicated that they were unwilling to extend the maturity date and would like the Overdue Loans to be settled by cash in due course and request for prompt settlement.

In respect of the Overdue Bond, the Company has been negotiating with the Creditor C since November 2019. During the negotiation, the Creditor C verbally agreed with the settlement by a combination of cash and loan capitalization (the “ Overdue Bond Proposal ”). On 13 January 2020, the Company was served with a sealed copy of the Petition issued by the Creditor C in the Winding-Up Proceedings under which petitioned that the Company be wound up by the court. Details of the Petition are set out in the paragraph headed “2. Statement of Indebtedness – Litigation – (a) Winding up petition from bondholder” in appendix I to this Prospectus. In February 2020, the Group and the Creditor C verbally reached the preliminary terms for the Overdue Bond Proposal, which would render a funding requirement of the Group of around HK$6 million to HK$8 million for the cash settlement under the Overdue Bond Proposal. Subsequent to February 2020, ongoing negotiations are being carried out between the Company and Creditor C and the Board considers that the Company is making positive progress in the negotiation. The Company and Creditor C have agreed in principle for the key arrangement under the Overdue Bond Proposal such as the ratio of cash settlement portion. The

– 21 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Company and Creditor C have preliminary agreed that not more than 60% of the outstanding principal amount of the Overdue Bond will be settled by cash. Accordingly, around HK$6 million of the net proceeds of the Rights Issue will be allocated for the cash settlement of the Overdue Bond.

On 24 July 2020, the Company and the Creditor C signed a binding broad terms of settlement setting out the principal terms of settlement as agreed by the parties.

On 10 August 2020, the Company and the Creditor C executed the definitive settlement agreement (the “ Settlement Agreement ”) under which the parties agree, amongst other things:

  • (i) The Company shall pay HK$563,835.62 being the interest accrued on the Overdue Bond from 15 September 2019 to the date of Settlement Agreement (the “ Interest Payment ”) within 5 days from the date of the Settlement Agreement;

  • (ii) The Company shall pay 60% of the outstanding principal of the Overdue Bond (i.e. HK$5,880,000) by 3 monthly instalments of HK$1,960,000 (together with corresponding accrued interest) (the “ Principal Payments ”) and the 1st instalment shall be payable on or before 5 October 2020;

  • (iii) The remaining 40% of the outstanding principal (i.e. HK$3,920,000) shall be settled by allotment of new Shares of the Company to the Creditor C (the “ New Shares ”) within 90 days from the date of Settlement Agreement subject to the following conditions precedents (the “ Allotment Conditions ”):

  • (a) The New Shares shall be permissible investment asset classes as specified under the Capital Investment Entrant Scheme introduced by the HKSAR;

  • (b) The obtaining of the approval from the Listing Committee of the Stock Exchange on the listing of and permission to deal in the New Shares;

  • (c) The issue price of the New Shares shall be at a rate being the 5-day average closing price of the Shares of the Company prior to the execution of the Settlement Agreement.

  • (iv) If the Allotment Conditions cannot be fulfilled, the outstanding indebtedness shall be repaid within 1 month from the date of default of the Allotment Conditions;

  • (v) In the event that the aggregate market value of the New Shares drops to 30% of HK$3,920,000 within 1 year from the date of allotment, the Company shall issue such further new shares or repay cash to restore such shortfall of the market value of HK$3,920,000 to the Creditor C, subject to a lock-up period of 6 months after the date of issuance of new shares;

  • (vi) Upon payment of the Interest Payment, the Creditor C shall agree to adjourn the hearing of the Petition on 26 August 2020 to October 2020 or thereafter; and

  • (vii) Upon payment of the Interest payment and the Principal Payments, the Creditor C shall take all necessary steps to withdraw the Petition.

– 22 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Company has duly paid the Interest Payment to the Creditor C on 14 August 2020. By a consent summons executed on 20 August 2020, the Company and the Creditor C has jointly applied to the High Court to adjourn the Petition hearing scheduled on 26 August 2020 to October or thereafter. On 25 August 2020, the High Court has notified the parties that the parties are excused from attending the Petition hearing on 26 August 2020 and it will pronounce the adjournment at the hearing. The Petition hearing is adjourned to 21 October 2020.

The Directors are aware that the Group has other outstanding interest-bearing loans (the “ Other Outstanding Loans ”), of which the Loan D and the Loan G bear higher interest rate as compared to the Matured Indebtedness. However, the Directors are of the view that there is no immediate need to repay the Other Outstanding Loans (except the Loan G) and the Group has sufficient financial resources to repay the Loan G (as discussed below). The details of the terms of the Other Outstanding Loans as at 31 July 2020 are set out as below:

Loans D E F G
Outstanding principal 14,000 10,005 527 1,500
amount (HK$’000)
Maturity date 26 June 2023 15 July 2022 16 July 2022 9 September 2020
(Note)
Interest rate (p.a.) 8% 4.85% 4.85% 24%
Agreement date 27 June 2018 16 July 2015 17 July 2015 9 June 2020

Note: The Loan D was initially repayable on 26 May 2019 and the maturity date of the Loan D was subsequently extended for another 13 months to 26 June 2020 and further extended to 26 June 2023.

At the time of proposing the Rights Issue and accessing the funding needs of the Company, it is the Group’s intention to extend the Loan D, which would become mature on 26 June 2020, rather than repaying it. In early March 2020, the Group has commenced the negotiation with the creditor of the Loan D (the “ Creditor D ”) for extension or renewal for a term of around one year. In early July 2020, the Creditor D has agreed by written notice, which is legally binding, to extend the maturity date of the Loan D to 26 June 2023. For the Loan E and the Loan F, they are not yet matured until July 2022. As such, the Directors consider that there is no urgency for the Group to settle the Other Outstanding Loans.

The Group intends to repay the Loan G with its internal resources and/or the revolving credit facilities (the “ Facilities ”) of HK$15,000,000 obtained in early July 2020 at an interest rate of 8% per annum for a term of two years after the drawdown date (the “ Loan G Settlement ”). As disclosed in the section headed “3. Working Capital” of appendix I to this Prospectus, the Directors are of the opinion that the Group has sufficient working capital (having considered the repayment of the Loan G) for at least the next 12 months from the date of this Prospectus.

As disclosed in the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2020 (the “ 2020 Annual Report ”), the Group recorded a consolidated loss of approximately HK$40.7 million for the year ended 31 March 2020 compared to loss of HK$36.4 million for the corresponding period of 2019. The bank balances and cash of the Group were approximately HK$1.5 million as at 31 March 2020. In addition, the Group recorded net current liabilities and net liabilities of approximately HK$153.9 million and HK$132.4 million respectively as at 31 March 2020.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

In view of the current challenging financial position of the Group, it would constrain the business development of the Group. Besides, the annual finance cost of the Matured Indebtedness which amounts to approximately HK$5.6 million, has been becoming a heavy burden on the Group’s operation. As such, the Directors consider it is essential to trim down the debt level of the Group to relieve its financial burden.

By a combination of the Rights Issue and the Overdue Bond Proposal and after utilizing proceeds from the Rights Issue for full repayment of the Overdue Loans and partial repayment of the Overdue Bond (assuming the remaining portion will be settled by way of loan capitalization under the Overdue Bond Proposal), it will result in full settlement of the Overdue Loans and the Overdue Bond (the “Overdue Debts Full Settlement” ). Thereafter, the interest-bearing debts of the Group (the “ Interest-bearing Debts ”) will be reduced substantially by approximately 67.9% from approximately HK$90.1 million as at 31 July 2020 to approximately HK$28.9 million. Moreover, after the Overdue Debts Full Settlement and the Loan G Settlement, the Other Outstanding Loans (excluding Loan G), which will not incur immediate repayment obligation on the Group as they are not yet overdue, will be the only remaining Interest-bearing Debts. As estimated based on the interest rate of the Interest-bearing Debts, after the Overdue Debts Full Settlement and the Loan G Settlement, it will result in substantial interest saving as estimated annual interest will drop significantly by over 75% to approximately HK$1.6 million.

With the substantial improvement in the financial position of the Group upon completion of the Rights Issue, the Board considers that it will enable the Group to be in a better position to negotiate with the creditors for the settlement of the outstanding debts and will facilitate the possible debt arrangements (e.g. settlement of Loan E and Loan F, being long term debts, by way of loan capitalization) for further strengthening the financial position of the Group.

Fund-raising alternatives

The Board has considered various fund-raising alternatives before resolving to the Rights Issue, including but not limited to debt financing, placing of new shares and open offer.

It is the Group’s intention to obtain bank financing which incurs lower interest rate for re-financing the Matured Indebtedness. The Company has approached two principal banks of the Group in Hong Kong (the “ Principal Banks ”) for exploring the possibility of obtaining new banking facilities. However, given the volatile market conditions and the consecutive loss-making financial performance of the Group, the Principal Banks turned down (the “ Banks Rejection ”) the request of the Company for banking facilities at an early stage and there was no further negotiation of scale or terms between the Company and the Principal Banks.

The Directors consider that it would be difficult for the Company to obtain loans from other non-banking financial institution (the “ Non-Banking Fls ”) due to the Company lack of collateral acceptable to the Non-Banking FIs. Moreover, based on the past experience of the Directors, even for secured loan financing with acceptable collateral (such as property) from the Non-Banking FIs, it will still result in an expectedly high interest rate ranging from at least 12% to 18% per annum under prevailing market conditions. The Group is reluctant to obtain loan financing from the Non-Banking FIs which generally charge higher interest rates than banks. As such, after the Banks Rejection, the Company did not further approach the Non-Banking Fls.

– 24 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Directors have also considered utilizing the existing general mandate of 28,451,375 Shares. The Directors consider that by applying relevant net proceeds of placing for partial settlement of the Matured Indebtedness, it would reduce scale of the Rights Issue and lower the overall price discount and dilution effect in conducting fund-raising activities. During April 2020, the Company has approached three securities houses to explore if they were interested to support any fund-raising exercises of the Company without proposing any specific terms in the first place. However, in view of the existing weak financial position of the Group, low market capitalization of the Group, none of the securities house has any interest on any possible fund-raising activities.

The Board considers that the Rights Issue would be more favourable and attractive to the Shareholders than an open offer because it would allow Shareholders to have more flexibility in dealing with the Consolidated Shares and the nil-paid rights attaching thereto.

Subsequent to the entering into of the Underwriting Agreement, during early June 2020, the cash level of the Group has reached a minimal level, the Director considered that it is necessary for the Group to bring in additional cash inflow for the Group’s working capital to relieve the Group’s short term cash flow pressure on business operations. As there is at least two months for the Company to complete the Rights Issue and the Company has undertaken in the Underwriting Agreement that the Company shall not issue new Shares under the general mandate from the date of the Underwriting Agreement up to and including the Record Date (both days inclusive), the Board considered debt financing as a source for addressing the emergent liquidity needs of the Group. In this connection, in early June 2020, the Group obtained the Loan G to satisfy its immediate liquidity needs.

Despite the Loan G is obtained, it should be noted that it bears the highest interest rate among the Group’s existing indebtedness and it was short term in nature and the loan amount was only HK$1.5 million. The Loan G serves as an interim measure to provide short-term financing to meet the Group’s urgent and pressing general working capital needs for business operations at the cost of incurring high interest rate.

The Loan G has already been utilised for the general working capital of the Group, including but not limited to, salary expenses, rental expenses and legal and professional fees.

In early July 2020, the Group obtained the Facilities for the general working capital requirements of the Group. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Facilities has not been drawn down. The Company expects to draw down the Facilities for general working capital as and when required after considering the availability and the costs of the then financing options for minimizing the Group’s funding costs.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Benefits of the Rights Issue

The Board is of the view that the Rights Issue represents an opportunity for the Company to strengthen its financial position after having considered that:

  • (i) tight cash position alongside with net current liabilities and net deficit position of the Group as at 31 March 2020;

  • (ii) the Rights Issue offers all the Qualifying Shareholders an equal opportunity to participate in the enlargement of the capital base of the Company and enables the Qualifying Shareholders to maintain their proportionate interests in the Company and continue to participate in the future development of the Company should they wish to do so;

  • (iii) the discount of the Subscription Price to the prevailing market price in order to enhance the attractiveness of the Rights Issue and it is the Company’s objective to encourage the participation of Qualifying Shareholders in the Rights Issue;

  • (iv) after considering other alternative fund-raising methods, it is prudent to finance the Group’s long-term growth by long-term financing, preferably in the form of equity which will not increase the Group’s finance costs. In addition, the Board believes that the Rights Issue will enable the Group to strengthen its capital base and enhance its financial position for future strategic investments as and when such opportunities arise; and

  • (v) to allow the Shareholders to have more flexibility in dealing with the Consolidated Shares and the nil-paid rights attaching thereto.

Therefore, the Board considered that raising funds by way of the Rights Issue is more cost effective and efficient.

Theoretical dilution effect

The Company has not conducted any rights issue, open offer and/or specific mandate placing within the 12-month period immediately preceding the Latest Practicable Date, or prior to such 12-month period where dealing in respect of the Shares issued pursuant thereto commenced within such 12-month period, nor has it issued any bonus securities, warrants or other convertible securities as part of such rights issue, open offers and/or specific mandate placings within such 12-month period.

The Rights Issue will result in a theoretical dilution effect (as defined under Rule 10.44A of the GEM Listing Rules) of over 25%, but in view of the following factors, the Board (including the independent non-executive Directors) considers that the terms and conditions of the Rights Issue and the Underwriting Agreement are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

EQUITY FUND-RAISING ACTIVITIES OF THE COMPANY FOR THE PAST TWELVE MONTHS

The Company has not conducted any equity fund-raising activities in the past twelve months immediately preceding the Latest Practicable Date.

RISK FACTORS

In compliance with the GEM Listing Rules, the Company sets out below the risk factors of the Group for the Shareholders’ attention. The Directors believe that there are certain risks involved in the operations of the Group which includes, but is not limited to, the following:

Risk relating to professional services business

The professional services business is subject to rapidly changing technology and evolving industry standards. The existing cyber services and solutions of the Group may become obsolete due to the rapid technological change. If the Group is not able to make available upgrades of services or solutions to address the needs of the customers, the competitive position and profitability of the Group will be adversely affected. Furthermore, if the services of the Group does not meet the expectations of the customers, such as the solutions and services of the Group fail to detect or prevent intrusions or cyber-attacks for any reason, the reputation and business of the Group could be harmed.

Risk relating to OTT services business

The OTT services business depends on the ability to provide high quality media content in order to retain existing users and attract new users. To attract new users and retain existing users, the Group must continue to offer high-quality and diversified media content that meets the users’ fast changing appetite. If the Group fails to deliver suitable media content to cater for the needs of users, users may not find the OTT services attractive and may not subscribe for the OTT services. Besides, the ability to provide users with a high quality viewing experience depends on the continuous and reliable operation of the systems and proper functioning of the mobile apps and websites. Failure to do so may significantly impair user experience on mobile apps and websites of the Group, which could hurt the reputation of the Group and cause the users to switch to other platforms.

Risk relating to proprietary trading

The proprietary trading of the Group is directly affected by the inherent risks associated with the securities markets, such as market volatility, fluctuations in the trading volume and the credit capacity or perceived credit worthiness of the securities industry in the marketplace. The proprietary trading of the Group is also subject to general economic and political conditions, such as macro-economic and monetary policies, legislation and regulations affecting the financial and securities industries, upward and downward trends in the business and financial sectors, inflation, currency fluctuations, availability of short-term and long-term market funding sources, cost of funding and the level and volatility of interest rates.

Any sudden downturn in the securities markets may adversely affect the market sentiment in general which would in turn adversely affect the fair value of the investment portfolio of the Group and the performance of the proprietary trading of the Group.

APPENDIX I

The Group principally engages in provision of professional services, over-the-top (“ OTT ”) services and proprietary trading. The professional services segment involves cyber security services and solutions. The OTT services segment involves provision of multi-media related services and content to customers in Hong Kong and Taiwan via its own digital video rental platform. During middle of December 2019, the money lending business had been sold to the independent third party due to the uncertainties in Hong Kong which has been affected by the social movement since June 2019. The interest income in money lending business amounted to approximately HK$7,000 for the FY2020 (year ended 31 March 2019 (the “ FY2019 ”): approximately HK$60,000). The decrease in revenue was due to the general underlying uncertainties in Hong Kong which has been affected by the social movement since June 2019, and the unexpected forced majeure event of the continued and worsening situation derived from the recent coronavirus outbreak. During 1Q2021, the Group had already ceased its money lending operation.

The Group will continue to pursue development of the businesses of the Group with focus towards the OTT services as its core business, which accounted for over 90% and approximately 99.2% of the total revenue of the Group for FY2020 and 1Q2021 respectively.

For professional services, in view of the change of business environment, the Company has strategically broadened its professional services in cyber security services and solutions. The revenue from provision of professional services amounted to approximately HK$1.7 million for FY2020 (FY2019: approximately HK$3.6 million) and approximately HK$65,000 for 1Q2021 (three months ended 30 June 2019 (the “ 1Q2020 ”): approximately HK$0.6 million) respectively.

The Group intends to diversify the customer base by penetrating into the cyber security market in the South East Asia region and the Greater Bay Area. The Group will continue to keep abreast of the latest developments in the IT security industry and to explore new technique based on information collected from, including but not limited to, industry-related conferences, exhibitions, and the feedbacks from the existing and potential business partners and end users of the Group.

The revenue from provision of OTT services amounted to approximately HK$34.7 million for FY2020 ( FY2019: approximately HK$51.6 million). The decrease of segment revenue is primarily due to (i) drop of subscription as a result of the expiration of 24 month contracts (the “ Expired Contracts ”) of the subscribers on the video-on-demand platform; and (ii) restructuring of Hong Kong business.

In the cooperation between the Group and the Partners, the Partners will procure their individual customers (the “ End Users ”) to subscribe for the OTT services of the Group. The Partners will enter into contacts with the End Users for subscription of the OTT services of the Group (generally for a term of 24 months) through the platform of the Partners (the “ Subscribers’ Contracts ”).

As at 31 March 2020, there are approximately 26,200 valid Subscribers’ Contracts, representing a decrease of approximately 60.6% as compared with that as at 31 March 2019.
