ANNUAL RESULTS ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

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

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 of the Stock Exchange and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

This announcement, for which the directors (the “ Directors ”) of ISP Global Limited (the “ Company ”, together with its subsidiaries, the “ Group ” or “ We ”) collectively and individually accept full responsibility, includes particulars given in compliance with the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on GEM of the Stock Exchange (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.

The Group’s obligations under its leases are secured by the lessor’s title to the leased assets. Generally, the Group is restricted from assigning and subleasing the leased assets. There are several lease contracts that include termination options which the directors of the Company considered reasonably certain not to exercise.

The Group has also entered into certain leases of office premises with lease terms of 12 months or less and leases of office equipment and dormitories with low value. The Group applies the ‘short-term lease’ and ‘lease of low-value assets’ recognition exemptions for these leases.

Goodwill arose from the acquisition of during the year ended 30 June 2021, which has been allocated to sale of consumer products business. The goodwill recognised is not expected to be deductible for the income tax purpose.

Sale of consumer products CGU

The recoverable amount of the sale of consumer products CGU as at 30 June 2021 has been determined based on a value in use calculation using cash flow projections from financial budgets approved by senior management covering a three-year period. The projected cash flows have been updated to reflect the demand for products and services. The pre-tax discount rate applied to cash flow projections is 13.27% and cash flows beyond the three-year period are extrapolated using a 0.3% growth rate that is the same as the long-term average growth rate for the sale of consumer products industry in the PRC. Management has calculated that the value in use of the operating subsidiaries located in the PRC and concluded that the recoverable amount is greater than their total carrying amount of the assets of the sale of consumer products CGU including allocated goodwill. As a result of this analysis, management does not believe an impairment charge of in the current year is required.

The loss allowance for trade receivables is measured at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses (ECL). The ECL on trade receivables are estimated using a provision matrix by reference to past default experience of the debtor and an analysis of the debtor’s current financial position, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors, general economic conditions of the industry in which the debtors operate and an assessment of both the current as well as the forecast direction of conditions at the reporting date.

There has been no change in the estimation techniques or significant assumptions made during the current reporting period.

A trade receivable is written off when there is information indicating that the debtor is in severe financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery.

The following table details the risk profile of trade receivables and unbilled revenue with customers based on the Group’s provision matrix which is derived from the aging based on due dates.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

Maintain dual focus on new public tenders and maintenance contracts in Singapore

Reeling from COVID-19 induced movement controls, industries around the world continued to experience reductions in overall demand which led to economic slowdowns and is one of the main factors contributing to a 1.7% contraction in the overall Singaporean economy in 2020, measured using Gross Domestic Product (“ GDP ”). However, the impact of COVID-19 induced movement controls on the construction sub-sector is accentuated as worksites tend to be effort and labour-intensive in closedquartered areas which may promote the spread of infection.

The Singapore’s construction industry contracted by 13.3% during the preceding 12 months ended 30 June 2020, and a further 17.7% during the Year. The contractions in the construction industry and the Group can be attributed to 1) strict site manpower controls slowing down completion of contract obligations and 2) the delayed restarting of worksites which hampered recognition of revenues in our project pipeline. As part of essential services operations, we continued to work tirelessly to deliver topof-the-class preventive and reactive maintenance service and round-the-clock support to our public, private, and non-for-profit customers in the healthcare and education sectors. In the near term, we continue to look forward to the stability of cash flow receipts from our existing and newly clinched maintenance contracts in the healthcare sector.

Furthermore, Singapore’s construction sub-sector faced an unprecedented profit squeeze, not only recording consecutive annual contractions for two years, but also incurring increased compliance operating costs as a prerequisite to curb the spread of COVID-19 at worksites. Some of the measures include hiring more employees to ensure workforce are following social distancing guidelines, and getting tested for infection every two weeks. Some of these costs were subsidised with government grants received during the Year as part of the S$1.36 billion Construction Support Package announced in Singapore’s Fortitude Budget in 2020.

We continue to optimise our cost structures taking heightened precautionary measures to safeguard employees’ health and have adopted a series of measures. One of these measures is maximising employee efficiency and engagement through the implementation of cloud-enabled work collaborations and video meeting solutions in order to enable employees to be able to work safely with social distancing.

24

Sound and communications system solutions industry outlook in Singapore

In line with the expected injection of new public tenders for sound and communication systems in Singapore, we stand ready and are committed to serve our clients in the public healthcare and housing sectors. Through iterative and constructive feedback from our stakeholders, we continue to create value for our clients through constant innovation and integration with existing or new systems to formulate the relevant solution to address the end-users’ needs.

As the world moves towards treating COVID-19 as an endemic, we expect to gradually resume sales and installation delivery to project sites in existing contracts whilst complying with all existing social distancing measures and regulations. We believe that with our healthy level of project and maintenance pipeline, we are poised to continue to build rapport and mutually beneficial relationships with all our stakeholders in order to create and share values among industry chain.

Outlook of E-commerce in the PRC

Overview of China’s Brand E-commerce Service Market

China’s online retail market has experienced a rapid growth over the past few years. According to the Ministry of Commerce, the gross merchandise volume (“ GMV ”) of China’s online retail market increased from RMB2,821.1 billion in 2014 to RMB10,632.4 billion in 2019 at a compound annual growth rate (“ CAGR ”) of 30.4%, and is expected to reach RMB16,069.3 billion in 2024, representing a CAGR of 8.6%.

Brand e-commerce services refers to third-party services provided by brand e-commerce service providers to brand owners, mainly including brand market analysis, online store operations, content e-commerce (including live broadcast/short video e-commerce), digital branding, logistics management and customer service.

With professional operating experience, brand e-commerce operators can help brand clients to promote brand culture and improve customer experience, carry out promotional activities through diversified online distribution channels to expand customer base, and constantly optimise marketing strategies based on accurate consumer analysis, so as to ultimately enhance their brand influence.

25

According to iResearch, Business to Customer (“ B2C ”) accounted for 78% of e-commerce GMV in 2019, up 15.2 percentage points from 2018. This percentage has been rising in recent years. Based on B2C e-commerce business, the brand e-commerce service market has been growing rapidly. In 2019, the transaction volume of the market reached RMB563.5 billion, representing a CAGR of 39.19% from 2016 to 2019 and a penetration rate of 10.50%. According to iResearch, the brand e-commerce service market is expected to reach RMB2.04 trillion in 2025 with an increased penetration rate of 13.7%. In 2020, the global spread of COVID-19 intensified the replacement of offline channels by online channels and prompted brands to accelerate digital transformation and improve online channels, laying a foundation for the expansion of the brand e-commerce service market.

The core value proposition of brand e-commerce service providers is to connect e-commerce platforms, brands and consumers to create value for all stakeholders.

Brand partners: Given the rapid development of China’s e-commerce market, brands rely more on service providers with profound brand e-commerce experience and industry partnerships to avoid the investment risks related to an in-house e-commerce team. The service providers can help brand partners quickly establish online retail channels, strengthen brand positioning, improve marketing efficiency, and expand customer base in the process of product sales.

E-commerce platforms: For an e-commerce platform, introducing more brands will attract more user traffic, which will eventually improve the sales conversion rate and increase the number of e-commerce consumers in order to help increasing the GMV of the platform. In addition, the refined services of brand service providers can also help the platform increasing the conversion rate, enhancing operational efficiency and attracting more brands to join the platform.

Consumers: Brand e-commerce service providers can integrate the product advantages of different platforms and match local consumer profiles to improve consumers’ shopping experience. In addition, they can enable consumers to understand and access more emerging brands, thus enriching their purchasing choices, reducing shopping decision-making difficulty, and fostering new consumer needs.

There are two e-commerce service models: operation agency and distribution. Under the operation agency model, an operation service provider only provides operation services for brands, which means that it is engaged in “service” business; under the distribution model, an operation service provider need to buy products and sell them directly, which means that it is engaged in “trade” business. The distribution model is divided into Business to Business (“ B2B ”) distribution and B2C distribution.

----- End of picture text -----

The boom of cross-border e-commerce has prompted more international brands to renew e-commerce services. In addition, factors such as complicated operation rules, large differences between online and offline markets, limited operational capacity, and low cost efficiency of self-operation increase the willingness of brands to purchase e-commerce services.

According to the statistics of China Customs, China’s cross-border e-commerce imports totaled RMB570 billion in 2020, a year-on-year increase of 16.5%. The Chinese market is increasingly attractive to international brands of which lack a thorough understanding of the Chinese market. So, their demand for e-commerce services is more urgent. There is no doubt that the development of cross-border e-commerce will drive the growth of the e-commerce service market.

Complicated online rules, large differences between online and offline markets, limited operational capacity and low cost efficiency of self-operation are the four challenges of which any brands wishing to enter the e-commerce market on their own are facing. E-commerce has disrupted the traditional operating model of numerous companies. Nevertheless, the rapid growth of online retail market is prompting companies to accelerate e-commerce business development. With limited e-commerce capabilities and capacity, businesses are generally willing to purchase e-commerce services which can help them quickly get access to the online market. This is an important factor driving the growth of China’s e-commerce service industry.

Under the growing influence of emerging channels such as mobile video and social media platforms, brands have a strong demand for entry into diverse channels, which drives e-commerce service providers to enhance capabilities in the operation of diverse channels. According to WJS (www.100EC.cn), the live streaming e-commerce GMV targets of Douyin and Kuaishou for 2020 are RMB200 billion and RMB250 billion, respectively.

29

The penetration of brands into diverse channels brings new opportunities for brand service providers to develop business on multiple platforms. In addition, new e-commerce retail models such as “Internet celebrities promoting sales”, “live streaming e-commerce” and “private domain traffic operation” have increased the complexity of e-commerce operations. For example, brand owners need to engage with a number of content platforms, key opinion leaders, multi channel networks and any other organisations with the use of subscribed tools of platforms in order to accurately reach target customers, capture consumers’ demand preferences and changes, and conduct rapid identification and profiling of consumers, which poses great challenges to brand owners. In this context, e-commerce service providers are increasingly important.

Under the new traffic pattern and new e-commerce retail models, the demand for brand operation services is expected to grow further, thus bringing growth opportunities to the e-commerce service industry.

Review of Progress in E-commerce Operations

In response to the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business, the Company commenced to develop e-commerce services in Mainland China in November 2020, and in about half year period an operation team there has been established there that its e-commerce business has reached a certain scale.

Operation team building: From October 2020 to June 2021, the Company established an operation team covering supply chain services, digital marketing, e-commerce operations and live broadcast operations through mergers and acquisitions and self-building. It has formed an ecosystem of omni-channel brand management services covering brand building, digital marketing, live streaming & short video marketing, content management, e-commerce operations, warehousing & logistics, customer relationship management, etc.

Partner development: As of this Year, the Company had cooperated with many domestic and foreign brands on their products, including Maotai Group’s Moutai Chun Maotai-flavor liquor series, Changyu’s Cabernet domestic wine series, Swiss-based Chantegrive’s wine series, Sweden-based LightAir’s purifier series, Sweden-based Ren Logik’s household cleaning product series, Australia-based Treasury Wine Estates’ Rawson’s Retreat wine series, Miiow’s underwear series, FILA’s watch series, UNIFON’s skin care product series, and Xinhua Winshare’s book products. Specifically, the Company serves as the online general agent for Changyu’s domestic wine series, an agent in Mainland China for Sweden-based LightAir’s purifier series, and the exclusive general agent for both Swiss-based Chantegrive’s wine series and Sweden-based Ren Logik’s household cleaning product series.

E-commerce channel operation: The Company’s online distribution business consists of B2B and B2C operations. As to B2B operations, we mainly cooperate with companies with online distribution channels to achieve online distribution; as to B2C operations, we mainly open stores on mainstream e-commerce platforms and public/private domain traffic platforms, and directly sell to and serve end consumers through our in-house team.

30

As of now, the Company has opened various types of stores on JD.com, Tmall, Pinduoduo, Douyin and Kuaishou, including brand flagship stores, specialty stores, single-category stores, live streaming direct-sales stores and direct-sales stores with private domain traffic established through SaaS tools for e-commerce, etc.

User operations: After nearly half a year’s efforts, the Company has initially established its own private domain traffic by gradually acquiring and retaining users through WeChat operations, SaaS tools for e-commerce, content marketing on public/private domain platforms, etc.

Outlook of E-commerce Operations

Partner development: The Company will uphold the basic principles of “Health, Value, Quality and Sustainability” for partner development. On this basis, leveraging its mature overseas business development capabilities, the Company will focus on partnering with companies that provide food, health products, household products and personal care products. In particular, Northern Europe and Western Europe will be the regions of focus for brand partner development.

Channel development: Based on the development of partners to be signed up and existing business needs, the Company will continue to open stores and look for cooperation opportunities on mainstream e-commerce platforms, live streaming e-commerce platforms, and private domain traffic channels. Specifically, JD.com, JD International, Tmall, Tmall International, Pinduoduo and Douyin will be the key channels for store opening. In addition, considering the sales needs of some partners and certain products, the Company will expand its business through new retail channels based on the combination of online and offline channels.

As the cost of public domain traffic is getting higher and higher, the Company will focus on developing private domain e-commerce business. On the one hand, we will provide brands with a full range of private domain traffic operation services; on the other hand, we will cooperate with organisations with private domain traffic to monetise their user traffic via e-commerce operations and enhance the commercial value of their private domain traffic.

User operations: The Company will further expand its service offerings and user base through the model of “WeChat and SaaS tools for e-commerce”, and increase user activity, repeat purchase rate and per customer transaction through public/private domain content marketing.

Digital marketing: The Company will further strengthen team building and enhance service capabilities for digital branding, and focus on channel and product system development for live streaming e-commerce. Live streaming e-commerce services will include three parts: live streaming value-added services, self-owned store live broadcast, and live streaming agency services.

31

The Company is committed to serving premium brands around the world. Leveraging its e-commerce service capabilities, the Company helps promote premium brands and distribute quality products to Chinese consumers, in an effort to continuously improve the quality of life of Chinese consumers.

OUTLOOK OF NETWORK SYSTEM INTEGRATION SERVICES

Network system integration services mainly involve network system integration solutions, IT technical services and maintenance services provided to customers in Mainland China, mainly including government departments, financial institutions, railway and aviation operators and other state-owned enterprises.

Expand our service system: Based on key customers, we will continue to expand the scope of products and services, ranging from technical services to system integration, and further to mainstream domestic security and database products.

Grow our customer base across industries by seeking breakthroughs in key customers: On the basis of key customers such as CARS in the railway and aviation industries, we expect to develop other customers in the railway system. In the financial service sector, we will deliver proven technical services to Hengfeng Bank and Chongqing Rural Commercial Bank, to play an exemplary role in developing other customers in the sector.

Step up cooperation with industry resources: Based on an increasing cohort of high-quality customers, we will establish more stable and trustable cooperation with upstream hardware, security and data suppliers, e.g. seeking supplier exclusive agency, industry exclusive agency, gold medal agency and regional gold medal agency with more partners.

Expand our regional sales teams: We plan to set up offices at selected locations in East, South and Southwest China, to better serve customers in the new regions.

32

Looking ahead, the network system integration services segment will focus on railway and aviation industries to ramp up the system integration and core IT service portfolio. We will leverage key customers to engage the upstream supplier fleet and deepen cooperation with brand suppliers, ultimately building ourselves into an integrated system integration service provider centering on IT services.

BUSINESS REVIEW

For the Year, the Group recorded revenue of approximately S$10.1 million representing a 51.3% increase in revenue from approximately S$6.7 million earned in the year ended 30 June 2020, driven by pursuing a sector and geographically diversified E-commerce revenue source. The Group recorded a total comprehensive loss attributable to the owners of the company of approximately S$0.4 million, representing a S$0.7 million decrease from earning a total comprehensive income attributable to the owners of the company of approximately S$0.3 million in the year ended 30 June 2020.

Sale of sound and communication systems and related services

Our revenue generated from the sale of sound and communicated systems and related services was approximately S$5.7 million and S$5.1 million for the years ended 30 June 2021 and 2020, respectively, which represent approximately 56.7% and 76.2% of our total revenue for the same period. The revenue increase was in line with an increase in contracts completed during the Year, to 103 from 92 for the years ended 30 June 2021 and 2020 respectively. The increase in contracts completed during the Year was in line with the gradual restart of the construction sector in Singapore.

The Group continues to ensure that Safe Management Measures are practised in work premises and prioritise employee health and safety in conjunction with pursuing sustainable business development. We endeavour to develop value-added and long-term relationship with customers in the long run through contracts for the provision of maintenance and related services for sound and communication systems.

Integrated services of sound and communication systems

Our revenue generated from the provision of integrated services of sound and communications systems was approximately S$0.2 million and S$0.7 million for the years ended 30 June 2021 and 2020, respectively, which represent approximately 2.3% and 10.7% of our total revenue for the same period. The revenue decrease was due to delays in restarting worksites related to construction projects in Singapore. Specifically, the progression of a material contract and its associated variation orders with approximately 8.7% completed during the Year while such contract and its associated variation orders progressed approximately 26.4% for the year ended 30 June 2020.

AAS services

Our revenue generated from the provision of AAS services was approximately S$0.7 million and S$0.9 million the years ended 30 June 2021 and 2020 respectively, which represent approximately 6.6% and 13.1% of our total revenue for the same period. There were two AAS services contracts and were both completed during the Year. The Group will continue to be involved in public tenders for projects in this revenue stream.

34

E-commerce operation services

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic on the Group’s other three revenue streams, the Group began to deploy resources into the E-commerce business in the PRC since November 2020 by initially establishing an operation team in the PRC. During the Year since its inception, the E-commerce operation team has expanded, inorganically through mergers and acquisitions and organically through selective hiring processes, to include other departments such as supply chain services, digital marketing, e-commerce operations, and live broadcast operations. As a result, we provide business owners with complete brand management e-commerce operation service system which includes, but is not limited to, brand building, digital marketing, live short video marketing, content management, e-commerce operations, warehousing and logistics, and customer relationship management.

During the Year since the inception of the E-commerce revenue stream in November 2020, by providing brand customers with services including digital marketing, supply chain services, and E-commerce operations (including B2B and B2C), subsidiaries of the Group generated revenue of approximately S$3.5 million for the Year, representing approximately 34.5% of our total revenue.

Network system integration services

Leveraging its professional team and service capabilities, the network system integration services department won the bids for several projects in the second quarter of 2021 alone. The four large projects are: e-payment platform simulation environment deployment (the Institute of Computing Technology of CARS), procurement of external and internal firewalls (China Railway Special Cargo Logistics Co., Ltd.), procurement of maintenance services for Radware hardware in 2021 (China Banking and Insurance Information Technology Management Co., Ltd.), and procurement of railway engineering equipment for the newly built Boten-Vientiane Line of the Laos-China Railway (the Institute of Computing Technology of CARS).

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Revenue

Our revenue increased by approximately S$3.4 million or 51.3% to approximately S$10.1 million for year ended 30 June 2021 (the “ Year ”), from approximately S$6.7 million for the year ended 30 June 2020. This was principally due to the increase in revenue contributed from the new E-commerce revenue source commencing operations during the Year. The increase was slightly offset by a decrease in integrated services of sound and communication systems caused by the COVID-19 pandemic-related project delays during the Year in Singapore.

Costs of sales/services

Our costs of sales/services increased by approximately S$2.3 million or 56.5% to approximately S$6.3 million for the Year from approximately S$4.0 million for the year ended 30 June 2020. The increase in costs was mainly due to significantly higher material purchases during the Year as part of our new E-commerce operations.

Gross profit

Our gross profit increased by approximately S$1.1 million for the Year or 43.4% to approximately S$3.8 million for the Year from approximately S$2.7 million for year ended 30 June 2020 due to gross profit contributions from our new sale of consumer products segment. The Group’s gross profit margin decreased to 37.6% for the Year, from approximately 39.8% for the year ended 30 June 2020. The decrease in gross profit margin was due to the substantial increase in material costs for our new E-commerce operations segment during the Year.

Other income, gains and losses

Our other income, gains and losses remained relatively stable at S$0.4 million for the Year and the year ended 30 June 2020. This is attributed to the extraordinary income during the Year from the receipt of increased government support grants for employees’ salaries in Singapore. The gains were offset by the increased foreign exchange losses of monetary assets held in other currencies, such as US$ and HK$, which had depreciated against the S$. For the previous year ended 30 June 2020, differences arising from revaluation of monetary assets held in other currencies, such as US$ and HK$, which appreciated against the S$, were recorded as foreign exchange gains.

36

Administrative expenses

Our administrative expenses increased to approximately S$4.3 million for the Year, by approximately S$1.8 million or 71.1%, from approximately S$2.5 million for the year ended 30 June 2020. The increase can be attributed to (i) increased payroll costs amounting to S$0.9 million in line with increased headcount to manage the new sale of consumer products segment in the PRC; (ii) higher legal and professional fees amounting to S$0.5 million in relation to expansion of the new sale of consumer products segment in the PRC; (iii) rising expenses amounting to S$0.2 million due to incurring depreciation on leased office space assets-in-use; and (iv) a S$0.2 million increase in general operating expenses of the new sale of consumer products segment in the PRC.

Finance costs

Our finance costs increased to approximately S$226.0 thousand for the Year, by approximately S$190.6 thousand or 5.38 times, from approximately S$35.4 thousand for the year ended 30 June 2020. The substantial increase was mainly due to the interest accrued from new interest-bearing loans from an independent third party used in the Group’s new sale of consumer products segment during the Year.

Income tax expense

Our income tax expense decreased to approximately S$123.5 thousand for the Year, by approximately S$46.9 thousand or 27.5%, from approximately S$170.4 thousand for the year ended 30 June 2020. The decrease was primarily due to a non-recurrent overprovision of income tax expenses in Singapore subsidiary ISPL for the previous years.

(Loss) profit and other comprehensive (loss) income for the year attributable to owners of the Company

The Group recorded total comprehensive loss for the year of approximately S$0.4 million for the Year. Compared to the total comprehensive income of approximately S$0.3 million for the year ended 30 June 2020, the decrease was principally caused by increased initial operational costs to enter the E-commerce market incurred during the Year.

DIVIDEND

The Board does not recommend the payment of final dividend for the Year (2020: nil).

The calculation of gearing ratio is based on interest-bearing liabilities divided by the total equity and multiplied by 100%.

Quick and current ratios

The quick and current ratios decreased by 81.4% and 82.1% respectively during the Year. This is primarily due to current liabilities build-up owed to both trade vendors and non-trade creditors in relation to operating in the new sale of consumer products segment.

Gearing ratio

The slight decrease of gearing ratio is due to the partial repayment of mortgage loan during the Year.
