CHARACTERISTICS OF THE 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.
Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited and the Stock Exchange take no responsibility for the contents of this report, 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 report.
This report, for which the directors (the “ Directors ”) of Jimu Group Limited (the “ Company ”) 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 report 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 report misleading.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Business Review and Outlook
The Group is engaged in the loan facilitation and credit assessment businesses and the footwear and apparel businesses.
Loan Facilitation and Credit Assessment Businesses
The Group commenced the provision of loan facilitation services to customers in China in 2018. The Group has set up branch office network across different regions in China to provide assistance to customers with financing needs, with a particular focus on individual customers in 3rd and 4th tier cities in China, who in general, compared to individuals in first tier cities, have weaker knowledge or access of financing solutions available in the market. The Group has built a credit rating system which gives customers an internal credit score, taking into account the customer’s financial condition, previous lending and repayment history and other behavior pattern. Our risk team periodically monitors and updates the algorithm to meet changing market conditions. Our branch network, together with our IT infrastructure, allows us to tap into these markets with relative ease. Our credit rating system helps to filter customers with relatively poor credit rating and allows us to focus on more credible customers. The on-site credit team then performs site visits and other due diligence procedures to verify the authenticity of information. Based on these credit scores and due diligence materials, our credit assessment team will consider whether to make a loan recommendation to appropriate funding sources (which may include bank and non-bank institutions). Our branch offices liaise between customers and the funding sources and arrange for contract signing upon agreement by both parties.
Our branch offices provide customer care services to these customers even after the relevant loans are disbursed. Such services include repayment reminders, and financial health check-ups.
There is a significant downturn in the loan facilitation business for the three months ended 31 March 2021. There are two main reasons for the significant decline.
First, the loan facilitation and credit assessment businesses were still significantly affected by Covid-19. The PRC Government imposed a number of policies across the PRC. The Group also implemented special working arrangements in the PRC, including but not limited to work-fromhome arrangements and reduced business meetings with clients. These measures had caused the loan facilitation service to drop drastically. Second, Covid-19 had also significantly affected lenders and intermediary service platforms (collectively, the “ Funding Sources ”). These Funding Sources had become less willing to lend or may have even changed their business plans amid such economic condition.
09
Jimu Group Limited | First Quarterly Report 2021
The Group provides credit assessment services by granting an automobile sales service shop the rights to access a system for credit assessment services for its customers since 2020. The Group has tailored-made a credit assessment system for the shop and facilitated the shop to assess credit rating of the client. The Group would explore more business opportunities by cooperating with different kind of business sector in 2021.
The management expects the impact of Covid-19 to persist in 2021 and the management anticipates a hard time ahead. The management had reviewed plans to reduce costs related to closure of the branches and layoff under-performing staffs.
On the other hand, given there are difficulties in obtaining financing from existing Funding Sources, the Group is actively seeking other Funding Sources include but not limited to banks, asset management companies, trusts and small loan companies.
Footwear and Apparel Businesses
The Group is engaged in the provision of footwear design and development, production management (including quality control) and logistics management service. The Group offers formal and casual footwear for men, women and children to its customers. Over the years of its operations since 2009, the Group has built a diverse global customer portfolio comprising mainly international wholesaler and retailers which are brand owners and/or licensees of formal and casual footwear. In 2020, the Group further expanded its customer portfolio to include branded wholesalers and retailers in the PRC. Also, the Group seized the opportunity for extending to apparel business in 2020 as the potential market for apparel business is massive in PRC.
The management believes that the footwear and apparel businesses are recovering and shall continue to seek further development opportunities in both overseas and PRC market.
Due to effect of Chinese new year holiday and the China –US political Controversy, it temporarily affect the status of footwear and apparel sales order, management expects the sales of footwear and apparel businesses will rebound and back to normal position in second quarter of 2021.
