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)

INTERIM RESULTS ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2016

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.

During the three months and six months ended 30 September 2015, the conversion of all potential ordinary shares outstanding would have an anti-dilutive effect on the loss per share. Hence, there was no dilutive effect on calculation of the diluted loss per share for the three and six months ended 30 September 2015.

The Company has conducted two share consolidations in 2015. For details, please refer to our announcement dated 12 August 2015 and 20 November 2015. The weighted average number of ordinary shares in 2015 have been adjusted to reflect the effect of these share consolidations.

20. 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 “Windingup 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.

19

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.

21. EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD

On 17 October 2016, the Group entered into an agreement with an independent party for the acquisition of 50% of the issue share capital of Billion Ray Investments Limited and its subsidiaries at a consideration of HK$280 million. Please refer to the announcement of the Company dated 17 October 2016 for further details of the acquisition.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

BUSINESS REVIEW

Revenue from continuing operations for the six months ended 30 September 2016 amounted to approximately HK$17.5 million representing an increase of approximately 88.73% as compared to the corresponding period in 2015.

System development and professional services

The Company is facing fierce competition from the thermal powered electricity supply market in the PRC in 2016 and the 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 Company reduces the bid price to strengthen its competitiveness. Therefore, system development in thermal powered electricity supply industry recorded a lower gross profit margin compared with the corresponding period in 2015. Professional services provided to data center recorded an increase in revenue compared with the corresponding period in 2015 due to the age of “big data” and the effort of management to strengthen the relationship with existing customers.

Proprietary trading business

In relation to the Group’s proprietary trading business, we have seen improvements in momentum as well as daily turnover of the Hong Kong stock market. This contributes to a positive change in fair value of its financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. The current valuation of Hong Kong stock market is relatively low compared to other major stock markets such as U.S. and China. 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 Group is actively seeking opportunities in securities investment which will create value and 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 had been identified and will be closely monitored.

20

Money lending business

During the past few years from the result of a rapid booming housing market in Hong Kong and the global low interest rate environment, the loan and credit market became very active and intense competition were witnessed. However, the Board is confident that through its long established relationships, history, reputation, network and synergy, the Group is able to participate in the market share of the money lending business and will become one of the drivers 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 consumable loan, the Company is planning to offer a variety of loan products from secured mortgage loans to individual, unsecured loans, small and medium sized enterprises loans, debt consolidation loans and corporate loans. Despite the above, the money lending business is encountering, regulatory, credit, economic and industry uncertainties and will closely monitor the performance of the money lending market.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

During the six months ended 30 September 2016, the Group recorded a revenue from continuing operations of approximately HK$17.5 million (2015: HK$9.3 million) representing an increase of approximately 88.73% as compared to that of the corresponding period in 2015. Administrative expenses from continuing operations decreased to approximately HK$11.3 million as compared to approximately HK$11.8 million of the corresponding period in 2015, representing a decrease of approximately 4.47% as compared to that of the corresponding period in 2015. Profit for the period from continuing operations was approximately HK$1.9 million for the six months ended 30 September 2016 (2015: loss of approximately HK$6.1 million).

LIQUIDITY, FINANCIAL RESOURCES AND CAPITAL STRUCTURE

During the six months ended 30 September 2016, the Company has made the following issue for cash of equity securities:

  • (i) On 29 December 2015, the Company passed the special resolution by the shareholders approving the capital reorganisation at the extraordinary general meeting. Please refer to the Company’s announcements and circular dated 20 November 2015, 27 November 2015, 29 December 2015, 25 April 2016 and 3 December 2015 respectively, for details of capital reorganisation. The Company completed the capital reorganisation on 25 April 2016.

  • (ii) On 28 July 2016, a total of 19,790,313 shares have been successfully placed by a placing agent to not less than six placees at the placing price of HK$0.57 per placing share pursuant to the terms and conditions of the placing agreement. The net proceeds from the placing, after deducting relevant expenses incurred in relation to the placing, amount to approximately HK$10.9 million.

The Board continues to look for opportunities to attract more investors, extend the shareholders base, reduce the accumulated loss and improve the flexibility of fund raising.

21

GEARING RATIO

The gearing ratio as at 30 September 2016 was 486% (31 March 2016: 790%). The gearing ratio calculated on the basis of total liabilities over the total shareholders’ equity.

FOREIGN CURRENCY EXPOSURE

During the six months ended 30 September 2016, the Group experienced only immaterial exchange rate fluctuations as the functional currencies of the Group’s operations were mainly Hong Kong dollars and Renminbi. As the risk on exchange rate difference was considered to be minimal, the Group did not employ any financial instruments for hedging purposes.

The Purchaser and the Vendor have not entered into the Formal Agreement in respect of the Proposed Acquisition on or before the Exclusive Period and no further extension of the Exclusive Period has been agreed between the parties in writing in this regard, the MOU has therefore been lapsed in accordance with its terms on 23 September 2016.
