FIRST QUARTERLY RESULTS ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2019

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE GEM OF 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 and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

BUSINESS REVIEW

The Group has been providing electrical and mechanical (“ E&M ”) engineering solutions and services in Hong Kong for over 40 years. Our principal business is the provision of E&M engineering works, and comprises (i) E&M engineering solutions and services on Transportation Mission Critical Systems Solutions and other E&M engineering solutions and services; (ii) E&M engineering design and fabrication services; (iii) E&M engineering maintenance services; and (iv) sales of parts and components. Depending on our customers’ needs and requirements, we provide a full spectrum of solutions and services covering design, equipment assembly, supply, installation, fabrication, testing, and commissioning and maintenance support with a focus on Hong Kong Transportation Mission Critical System Solutions.

The following table sets forth the details of our Group’s revenue by type of projects and services we undertook for the three months ended 30 June 2019 and 2018:

Type of Projects

Type of Projects E&M Engineering Solutions and Services – Transportation Mission Critical System Solutions – Other E&M Engineering Solutions and Services Subtotal E&M Engineering Design and Fabrication Services E&M Engineering Maintenance Services Sale of Parts and Components Total	For the three months ended 30 June 2019 2018 HK$’000 % HK$’000 %

	51,784 100.0 57,087 100.0

E&M Engineering Solutions and Services segment accounts for the largest business segment of our Group’s business. Approximately 81.6% of the revenue was attributable to this segment for the three months ended 30 June 2019. The second largest segment is E&M Maintenance Services. Revenue from this segment increased by approximately 21.1% from approximately HK$7.1 million for the three months ended 30 June 2018 to approximately HK$8.6 million for the three months ended 30 June 2019. The Group foresees that revenue generated from these two segments will continue to grow especially in relation to the renovation and replacement of E&M, communication and automatic fare collection (“ AFC ”) assets projects from one of our major customers. For the coming nine months, the Group will continue to undertake projects including (i) advance works related to the Airport Three Runway System; (ii) Replacement and Modification of Smoke Curtains System at Airport Express Line and Tung Chung Line; and (iii) retrofit of about 1,000 ticket gates to enable Alipay HK QR Code payment for travel on Hong Kong’s MTR system.

The Group will continue to grasp opportunities at the existing E&M market among those emerging opportunities while at the same time explore and expand our clientele as well as diversify our business into other emerging markets.

OUTLOOK

While our Group continues to focus on deepening our penetration of the Hong Kong E&M engineering industry with special focus on the Transportation Mission Critical System Solutions market, in order to keep pace with the growing transport needs, modernization, upgrading and expansion projects, the Group has been devoting more resources to the development and application of different technologies. Looking forward to the year ended 31 March 2020, the Group will (i) expand our office space and work area in relation to research and development; (ii) recruit additional research and development staff; and (iii) invest in relevant software and be ready to apply for the payment card security related certification.

The Group does not foresee the recent economic, social and/or political conditions in Hong Kong will materially affect our performance while we will closely monitor the conditions as a whole.
