CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM

GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate 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. 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 Main Board of the Stock Exchange and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX II

This appendix serves as an explanatory statement, as required by Rule 13.08 of the GEM Listing Rules to be given to all Shareholders relating to the resolution to be proposed at the AGM authorizing the Repurchase Mandate.

The GEM Listing Rules permit companies whose primary listing on the Stock Exchange to repurchase their fully-paid shares on the Stock Exchange subject to certain restrictions, the most important of which are summarised below:

1. SHAREHOLDERS’ APPROVAL

All proposed repurchase of shares on the Stock Exchange by a company with its primary listing on the Stock Exchange must be approved in advance by the shareholders by an ordinary resolution, either by way of a general mandate or by a specific approval.

2. REPURCHASE OF SECURITIES FROM CORE CONNECTED PERSONS

Under the GEM Listing Rules, the Company is prohibited from knowingly purchasing Shares on the Stock Exchange from a core connected person.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best knowledge of the Directors having made all reasonable enquiries, no core connected person of the Company has notified the Company that he/she/it has a present intention to sell any Shares to the Company or has undertaken not to sell any of the Shares held by him/her/it to the Company or its subsidiaries in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders.

3. SHARE CAPITAL

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the issued share capital of the Company comprised 600,000,000 Shares. Subject to the passing of the proposed ordinary resolution for the approval of the Repurchase Mandate, and assuming that no further Shares are issued and no Shares are repurchased and cancelled after the Latest Practicable Date and up to the date of the AGM of passing such resolution, the Directors would be authorised to repurchase up to a maximum of 60,000,000 Shares, representing 10% of the total number of the issued Shares as at the date of passing the relevant resolution. The Repurchase Mandate will end on the earliest of (i) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting; (ii) the expiration of the period within which the next annual general meeting is required to be held by the Articles of Association or any applicable laws of the Cayman Islands; or (iii) the date on which such authority is revoked or varied by an ordinary resolution of the Shareholders at a general meeting of the Company.

4. REASONS FOR REPURCHASES

The Directors have no present intention to repurchase any Shares but consider that the Repurchase Mandate is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. An exercise of the Repurchase Mandate may, depending on the market conditions and funding arrangements at the time, lead to an enhancement of the net assets value per Share and/or earnings per Share and will only be made when the Directors believe that a repurchase will benefit the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX II

5. FUNDING OF REPURCHASES

Pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, repurchases would be funded entirely from the Company’s funds legally available in accordance with the law of the Cayman Islands and the memorandum and articles of association of the Company for such purpose.

6. IMPACT ON WORKING CAPITAL OR GEARING POSITION

An exercise of the Repurchase Mandate in full would not have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company when compared with that as at 31 December 2017, being the date of its latest published audited consolidated financial statements. The Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse impact on the working capital or gearing position of the Company, which in the opinion of the Directors is from time to time appropriate for the Company.

7. SHARE PRICES

The highest and lowest market prices at which the Shares had been traded on the GEM since the Listing Date and up to the Latest Practicable Date were as follows:

Traded Price (HK$)
Month Highest Lowest
2017
July (since 17 July 2017, being the Listing Date) 0.65 0.43
August 0.78 0.49
September 0.87 0.56
October 1.34 0.85
November 0.98 0.75
December 0.96 0.64
2018
January 1.11 0.91
February 1.58 0.94
March (up to and including the Latest Practicable Date) 2.00 1.43

8. DIRECTORS AND THEIR CLOSE ASSOCIATES

None of the Directors or, to the best of their knowledge having made all reasonable enquiries, their close associates, have any present intention to sell to the Company or its subsidiaries any of the Shares if the Repurchase Mandate is approved at the AGM.

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

APPENDIX II

9. UNDERTAKING OF THE DIRECTORS

The Directors have undertaken to the Stock Exchange that so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the powers of the Company to make repurchases pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the GEM Listing Rules, the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands and the Articles of Association.

10. EFFECT OF TAKEOVERS CODE

If a Shareholder’s proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases as a result of the Company exercising its powers to repurchase Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate, such an increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purpose of the Takeovers Code. As a result, a Shareholder, or a group of Shareholders acting in concert (as defined in the Takeovers Code), could obtain or consolidate control of the Company and become(s) obliged to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, to the best knowledge and belief of the Directors, Mr. Chew, the chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and a executive Director and Ms. Yong, a executive Director, Omnipartners Holdings Limited were the controlling shareholders of the Company, holding 391,500,000 Shares, representing 65.25% of the total number of the issued Shares. In the event that the Directors will exercise in full the Repurchase Mandate, the interests in the Company of each of Mr. Chew, Ms. Yong, Omnipartners Holdings Limited would be increased to approximately 72.5% of the total number of the issued Shares and such increase will not give rise to any obligation to make a mandatory offer under Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code. Save as aforesaid, the Directors are not aware of any consequence which may arise under the Takeovers Code as a consequence of any repurchase of Shares under the Repurchase Mandate.

Assuming that there is no issue of Shares in the Company between the Latest Practicable Date and the date of a repurchase, an exercise of the Repurchase Mandate in whole or in part will result in the aggregate amount of the issued share capital of the Company in the public hands falling below the prescribed minimum percentage of 25% as required by the Stock Exchange. The Directors confirm that the Repurchase Mandate will not be exercised to the extent as may result in the amount of the Shares held by the public being reduced to less than 25% of the issued share capital of the Company.

11. SHARES REPURCHASE MADE BY THE COMPANY

No repurchases of Shares have been made by the Company (whether on the Stock Exchange or otherwise) since the Listing Date up to the Latest Practicable Date.
