CHARACTERISTICS OF THE GROWTH ENTERPRISE MARKET (“GEM”) OF THE STOCK EXCHANGE OF HONG KONG LIMITED (“EXCHANGE”)
GEM has been established as a market designed to accommodate companies to which a high investment risk may be attached. In particular, companies may list on GEM with neither a track record of profitability nor any obligation to forecast further profitability. Furthermore, there may be risks arising out of the emerging nature of companies listed on GEM and the business sectors or countries in which the companies operate. 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 stock market operated by the Exchange prior to the establishment of GEM (excluding the options market) and which stock market continues to be operated by the Exchange in parallel with GEM and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.
The principal means of information dissemination on GEM is publication on the internet website operated by the Exchange. Listed companies are not generally required to issue paid announcements in gazetted newspapers. Accordingly, prospective investors should note that they need to have access to the GEM website in order to obtain up-to-date information on GEM-listed issuers.
The Exchange takes no responsibility for the contents of this report, makes no representation as to its accuracy or completeness and expressly disclaims 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 of MegaInfo Holdings Limited (“Company”) collectively and individually accept full responsibility, includes particulars given in compliance with the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the GEM of the Exchange (“GEM Listing Rules”) for the purpose of giving information with regard to Company. The directors of the Company (“Directors”), having made all reasonable enquiries, confirm that, to the best of their knowledge and belief: (1) the information contained in this report is accurate and complete in all material respects and not misleading; (2) there are no other matters the omission of which would make any statement in this report misleading; and (3) all opinions expressed in this report have been arrived at after due and careful consideration and are founded on bases and assumptions that are fair and reasonable.

The Board does not recommend the payment of an interim dividend for the nine months ended 31 March 2005 (2004: Nil).

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Business Review – Macao
The successful implementation of the one-stop e-government project for the Macao Government has certainly allowed the Group to gain valuable experience and to establish our reputation as a well-rounded integrated enterprise solution provider within the Macao Government and the territory. With the one-stop e-government project being an important reference site, the Group has secured another landmark project during the Three-Month Period from Companhia de Telecomunicações de Macau S.A.R.L. (CTM) for the supply and installation of gaming applications and related services, including project management, system integration and support services, for the 2005 Macau 4th East Asian Games, which will be held in Macao in October 2005. Value of this contract was approximately HK$19.7 million, thus, together with other projects previously awarded, including the Automatic Vehicle Clearance System and the Automatic Passenger Clearance System from the Macao Government, orders on hand stood strongly at approximately HK$33.6 million as at 31 March 2005. With the completion of these projects to take place before end of 2005, management expects the financial performance of the Group to improve during the second half of 2005.
Promotion and active marketing of the Mega series branded products and services to customers in Macao and China continued to be underway. In connection with the promotion of the Group’s products and services, the Group has also been carefully evaluating the requirements of the market and its customers, including the government, commercial enterprises, gaming operators, telecom operators, etc, and seek to improve features and technical capabilities of our products, or introduce new products to accommodate and better fit their needs. During the Three-Month Period, the Group has upgraded MegaECM and MegaERP by encompassing functionalities such as communication mobility platform. With enhanced features, management believes that the enhanced products will be more receptive and accepted by customers in the marketplace and will bring in better business opportunities in Macao and China.

Business Review – China
During the Three-Month Period, the Group exercised the option to take ownership of Tianxin ERP software from Zhuhai Tianxin Business Software Limited, a whollyowned subsidiary of eForce Holdings Limited. With such ownership, the Group reposition MegaERP , which has been evolved based on the original Tianxin ERP software, in the market and adopted a new sales and marketing strategy to promote it in China – by offering off-the-shelf enterprise resources planning solution with quality and user-friendly features and functionalities to different classes of customers at competitive and affordable pricing.
During the period, MegaERP gained various awards in China, including the 2004 年企業信息化十大影響力產品from支點網 , the 2004中國製造業信息化高速成長 IT企業 and the 2004中國製造業信息化優秀推廣產品 from e-works. These awards strongly represented product acceptance and acknowledgement of the quality of MegaERP and the status of MegaInfo in China.
Financial Position and Operating Performance Review
Turnover and Profitability
During the Nine-Month Period, attributable to various projects from the Macao Government, including the one-stop e-government project from Instituto para os Assuntos Cívicos e Municipais (“IACM”), the Group reported consolidated turnover of approximately HK$9.2 million, representing an increase of 14.6% over the corresponding period for the nine months ended 31 March 2004 of approximately HK$8.1 million. The Group also registered an improvement in the gross profit margin from 21.0% for nine months ended 31 March 2004 to 23.6% for the NineMonth Period.

MegaInfo Holdings Limited • Third Quarterly Report 2005
==> picture [419 x 60] intentionally omitted <==
With the exercise of the option to take ownership of the Tianxin software, management took a prudent view by writing off in full the intangible assets that pertained to the perpetual exclusive licence of the Tianxin software. As a result of the goodwill impairment, the Group recorded consolidated net loss of HK$18 million for the Nine-Month Period. Despite disappointing results for the past nine months, the Group has successfully secured various contracts during the ThreeMonth Period with total contracts on hand as at 31 March 2005 amounted to approximately HK$33.6 million.
In addition to securing new business, cost control over the operations in Macao and China will continue to be an on-going exercise for the Group. The Group will carefully monitor its cash position, profit and loss status of each project, and sales & marketing strategies. Management of the Group believes that, only with new business and improved operating margins, will the Company turn around going forward.
