Management Discussion and Analysis
During the Period Under Review, pressure had been accumulating within the domestic manufacturing industry and the ancillary packaging enterprises including shrinking export orders, weak growth in domestic orders, and continuous increase in manufacturing costs. Faced with such unfavorable business conditions, the Group, on the one hand, innovated in its market expansion, adjusted product structure, and actively tapped market segments such as the fast-growing e-commerce and logistics markets; on the other hand, the Group consolidated its internal management, optimized its manufacturing techniques, and reduced its operational costs, to enhance the comprehensive operational efficiency of the Company.
For the six months ended 30 June 2015, our paper packaging business recorded a turnover of approximately RMB412 million, representing an increase of approximately 2.0% as compared with the same period of 2014; and profit attributable to owners of the Company was approximately RMB10.43 million, representing an increase of approximately 9.9% from the same period of 2014.
OutlOOk
Looking ahead to the second half of 2015, despite the steady rebound of the US economy, and the temporary ease of the Greek debt dispute in the Eurozone, deep-level risks still remain, and the European economy is still exposed to potential uncertainties. The domestic economy is expected to maintain a steady GDP growth benefiting from the “One Belt One Road” initiative, the “Internet Plus” strategy and the reform and opening up measures such as the establishment of free trade zones launched by the PRC Government. Thanks to the previous easing policies, and positive measures including the cuts in interest rates and RRR, as well as the enhancing wealth effect in the capital market, the overall real estate market is expected to remain stable and healthy, with sales volume and price in the first and major second-tier cities estimated to continue picking up.

It was authorised for issue on 13 August 2015.
The preparation of an interim financial report in conformity with HKAS 34 requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses on a year to date basis.

For the six months ended 30 June 2015
2. ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED HONG KONG FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS
In the current period, the Group has adopted all the new and revised HKFRSs issued by the HKICPA that are relevant to its operations and effective for its accounting year beginning on 1 January 2015. The adoption of these new and revised HKFRSs did not result in significant changes to the Group’s accounting policies, presentation of the Group’s financial statements and the amounts reported for the current period and prior years.
The Group has not applied the new HKFRSs that have been issued but are not yet effective. The Group has already commenced an assessment of the impact of these new HKFRSs but is not yet in a position to state whether these new HKFRSs would have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position. The Group does not plan to adopt these standards prior to their mandatory effective date.
