FINANCIAL EFFECT OF THE DISPOSAL AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Subject to final audit, it is expected that the Group will realise a loss on disposal of approximately HK$6,255,000, which is calculated by reference to the carrying value of Target Company as at 30 November 2016 and taking into account the waiving of the outstanding amounts of the intergroup balances between the Group and the Target Group. The Directors currently intend to apply the proceeds from the Disposal as general working capital of the Company.

Upon completion of the Disposal, the Company will cease to hold any interest in any of the companies of the Target Group. Each of the companies of the Target Group will cease to be a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and their respective financial statements will no longer be equity accounted for in the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

THE PROPERTIES

The Properties comprises of (i) whole of 10th Floor, Wings Building, 110-116 Queen’s Road Central, Central, Hong Kong, with a total gross floor area of 3,393 square feet (the “ First Property ”); and (ii) Workshop No. 5 on 4th floor, Fullagar Industrial Building, No. 234 Aberdeen Main Road, Hong Kong, with a total gross floor area of 1,402 square feet (the “ Second Property ”).

As at the date of this announcement, the First Property is subject to an existing tenancy to be expired on 3 July 2019 and the Second Property is subject to an existing tenancy to be expired on 31 May 2019.

REASONS FOR THE DISPOSAL

The Company is principally engaged in the investment in and development of photovoltaic power plants and trading of equipments related to photovoltaic power stations, properties investment and trading of life-like plants in the PRC.

The Directors consider that it is a good opportunity for the Group to dispose the Properties so as to increase the level of general working capital of the Group and to re-allocate its resources to its solar power stations to further enhance the value of the Company. As the Disposal is being conducted after arm’s length negotiations based on normal commercial terms, the Directors, including the independent non-executive Directors, are of the view that the Disposal is fair and reasonable and is in the interest of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.
