Notes:

  1. BASIS OF PREPARATION

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“HKFRS”) Accounting Standards as issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“HKICPA”). For the purpose of preparation of the consolidated financial statements, information is considered material if such information is reasonably expected to influence decisions made by primary users. In addition, the consolidated financial statements include applicable disclosures required by the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities (the “Listing Rules”) on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”) and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

  1. APPLICATION OF NEW AND AMENDMENTS TO HKFRS ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Amendments to an HKFRS Accounting Standard that are mandatorily effective for the current year

In the current year, the Group has applied the following amendments to HKFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“HKICPA”) for the first time, which are mandatorily effective for the annual periods beginning on 1 January 2025 for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements:

Amendments to HKAS 21 Lack of Exchangeability

The application of the amendments to an HKFRS Accounting Standard in the current year has had no material impact on the Group’s financial positions and performance for the current and prior years and/or on the disclosures set out in these consolidated financial statements.

2. APPLICATION OF NEW AND AMENDMENTS TO HKFRS ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (Continued)

New and amendments to HKFRS Accounting Standards in issue but not yet effective

The Group has not early applied the following new and amendments to HKFRS Accounting Standards that have been issued but are not yet effective:

Amendments to HKAS 21 Translation to a Hyperinflationary Presentation Currency^{3}
Amendments to HKFRS 9 and HKFRS 7 Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments^{2}
Amendments to HKFRS 9 and HKFRS 7 Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity^{2}
Amendments to HKFRS 10 and HKAS 28 Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture^{1}
Amendments to HKFRS Accounting Standards Annual Improvements to HKFRS Accounting Standards – Volume 11^{2}
HKFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements^{3}
  1. Effective for annual periods beginning on or after a date to be determined.
  2. Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026.
  3. Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027.

Except for the new HKFRS Accounting Standards mentioned below, the directors of the Company anticipate that the application of all other new and amendments to HKFRS Accounting Standards will have no material impact on the consolidated financial statements in the foreseeable future.

HKFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

HKFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, which sets out requirements on presentation and disclosures in financial statements, will replace HKAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. This new HKFRS Accounting Standard, while carrying forward many of the requirements in HKAS 1, introduces new requirements to present specified categories and defined subtotals in the statement of profit or loss; provide disclosures on management-defined performance measures (MPMs) in the notes to the financial statements and improve aggregation and disaggregation of information to be disclosed in the financial statements. In addition, some HKAS 1 paragraphs have been moved to HKAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors (the title of which will be changed to Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements upon effective of HKFRS 18) and HKFRS 7. Minor amendments to HKAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and HKAS 33 Earnings per Share are also made.

HKFRS 18, and amendments to other standards, will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027, with early application permitted. HKFRS 18 requires retrospective application with specific transition provisions. The application of the new standard is not expected to have significant impact on the financial performance and positions of the Group in terms of recognition and measurement. However, it is expected to affect the structure and presentation of the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

3. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Information reported to the executive directors of the Company, being the chief operating decision makers ("CODM"), for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance is mainly focused on the property development, property investment, hotel operation and financial investment.

The property investment segment includes a number of various property locations. Each location is considered as a separate operating segment by the CODM. For segment reporting, these individual operating segments have been aggregated into a single reportable segment as property investment provide the same nature of income with the same recognition criteria.

The financial investment segment includes interest income from time deposits and investment income from listed investments.

It is the Group's strategy to make financial investment, particularly fixed income debt securities, from time to time in order to generate stable financial investment income for the Group.

Segment revenues and results

The following is an analysis of the Group's revenue and results from operating and reportable segments:

For the year ended 31 December 2025

Segment results of the property investment division for the year ended 31 December 2025 included a decrease in fair value of investment properties of HK$104,875,000 (2024: HK$14,374,000).

The accounting policies for operation segments are the same as the Group’s accounting policies.

The Group does not allocate interest income generated from bank deposits, corporate expenses, gain on disposal of investment in a joint venture, share of result of a joint venture and finance costs to individual reportable segment profit or loss for the purposes of resource allocation and performance assessment by the CODM.

The CODM makes decisions according to operating results of each segment. No analysis of segment asset and segment liability is presented as the CODM does not regularly review such information for the purposes of resources allocation and performance assessment. Therefore, only segment revenue and segment results are presented.

Included in revenue generated from renting of investment properties, HK$216,537,000 (2024: HK$205,612,000) is rental income from leasing of investment properties under operating lease in which the lease payments are fixed. No rental income from leasing of investment properties under operating leases in which the lease payments depend on an index or a certain rate is generated for both years.

ii. For the year ended 31 December 2025, revenue from hotel operation, which arose from contracts with customers comprises of (i) hotel room revenue of HK$144,736,000 (2024: HK$150,166,000) being recognised over time and based on output method; (ii) food and beverage sales of HK$21,491,000 (2024: HK$21,761,000) and ancillary service of HK$1,815,000 (2024: HK$2,053,000) being recognised at point in time. The remaining revenue of HK$8,630,000 (2024: HK$8,013,000) is rental income from leasing of hotel’s retail portion under operating leases in which the lease payments are either fixed or variable that are based on the percentage of monthly sales and minimum monthly fixed payments that are fixed over the lease terms, whichever is higher.

Performance obligations for contracts with customers and revenue recognition policies

The hotel room revenue from customers are recognised over time using output method when the services and facilities are provided. The Group allows an average credit period is not more than 30 days to travel agents and corporate customers.

For income from food and beverage, the performance obligation is the promise to provide catering services. Revenue from catering services is recognised at a point in time when the services are rendered. A receivable is recognised by the Group when the services are rendered to the customers at which the right to consideration becomes unconditional, as only the passage of time is required before payment is due. Payment of the transaction price is due immediately at the point the services are rendered to the customers.

With the provision of these services at a period of one year or less, as permitted under HKFRS 15, the transaction price allocation to the unsatisfied contracts is not disclosed.

iii. Interest income and others includes interest income from listed debt securities and time deposits of HK$27,748,000 (2024: HK$24,167,000) and dividend income from listed equity securities of HK$1,601,000 (2024: HK$1,929,000).

DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Financial Summary

Revenue for the year ended 31 December 2025 amounted to HK$423.0 million (2024: HK$414.1 million). The revenue was principally attributable to the recognition of rental income from investment properties, revenue from hotel operation and return from financial investment.

The ordinary operating profit of the Group increased to HK$217.8 million (2024: HK$201.9 million) during the year. The loss attributable to the Company's shareholders for the year amounted to HK$186.7 million (2024: HK$136.7 million), equivalent to a basic loss per share of HK$31.0 cents (2024: HK$22.7 cents). The loss attributable to the shareholders of the Company in current year was mainly due to (i) fair value loss on investment properties and (ii) the finance costs of bank borrowings. The finance costs reduced by 20.2% comparing to 2024. The abovementioned fair value loss is non-cash item and has no immediate impact on the cashflow of the Group.

As at 31 December 2025, the Group's equity attributable to the Company's shareholders amounted to HK$3,831.2 million (2024: HK$3,923.5 million). The net asset value per share attributable to the Company's shareholders as at 31 December 2025 was HK$6.4 as compared with HK$6.5 as at 31 December 2024.

The Group's property assets (including interests in two joint ventures) by geographical location at the year end were as follows:

HK$' million |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Hong Kong | 3,999.7 | 4,451.4 |
| The United Kingdom | 3,900.6 | 3,683.4 |
| Total | 7,900.3 | 8,134.8 |

The Group's hotel property is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation charges at a carrying value of HK$466.2 million (2024: HK$486.2 million), whereas the market value as determined by valuation carried out by an independent property valuer is HK$4,450.0 million (2024: HK$4,920.0 million). For the purpose of providing supplementary information, if the carrying value of the Group's hotel property was restated to its market value, the adjusted total property assets, the adjusted net asset value and adjusted net asset value per share attributable to the Company's shareholders as at 31 December 2025 would be HK$11,884.1 million (2024: HK$12,568.6 million), HK$7,815.0 million (2024: HK$8,357.3 million) and HK$13.0 (2024: HK$13.9) respectively.

Winway Building², one of the Group’s investment property, is at the prime location of the central business district of Hong Kong and is a high quality commercial property. The rental income generated from the property for the year ended 31 December 2025 remained relatively stable in this challenging time for office.

The Group owns a residential property project at Shouson Hill Road East for long term investment. The renovation works were completed. The Group will continue to hold the project for long term investment purpose.

The United Kingdom

The Group owns two investment properties located in the heart of London in the United Kingdom.

20 Moorgate, London is almost fully let to the Prudential Regulation Authority (a regulatory body of the Bank of England) as headquarter under long-term lease agreements.

33 Old Broad Street, London is fully leased to Bank of Scotland and guaranteed by HBOS Plc (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Lloyds Banking Group) for a fixed term until 2039 with fixed rental uplift every five years. The rent increased by 13% last year, in accordance with the lease terms. The tenant completed significant renovation works at 33 Old Broad Street and moved in as Lloyds Banking Group’s new head office in 2025.

Given the strong lease covenants on our reputable tenants, the UK properties continue to provide stable cash flow to the Group, reflecting the Group’s success in making investment strategy and the Group’s capability to withstand in any market instability.

Hotel Operation

Crowne Plaza Hong Kong Causeway Bay is a 29-storey five-star hotel comprising 263 guest rooms with ancillary facilities and is operated under the brand of Crowne Plaza of the InterContinental Hotels Group. During the year, the hotel’s performance experienced a slight decline. However, this downward trend was largely mitigated by a strong pick-up in occupancy and improved average room rates beginning in late 3rd quarter of 2025, which effectively set off the earlier decline.

The Group is taking all practicable measures to address the challenges and opportunities at hand. We understand the importance of delivering exceptional experience that exceed our guests’ expectations. The Group will continue to improve the quality of its hotel services to ensure our guests have enjoyable experiences during their stays in our hotel.

Financial Investment

Adhering to prudent management of our capital, the Group continues to optimize its capital structure and decrease the gearing. As at 31 December 2025, the Group held financial investment of approximately HK$220.4 million (31 December 2024: HK$246.2 million), which are comprised of listed equity and debt securities and unlisted investments.

The Group did not record any impairment loss on debt securities in both years ended 31 December 2025 and 2024.


Financial Resources and Liquidity

Treasury Policies

The Group adheres to prudent treasury policies. As at 31 December 2025, all of the Group’s project borrowings are on a non-recourse basis, with no cross default covenants at corporate level.

During the year, the Group continued to maintain high financial flexibility and liquidity under the environment of high interest rates and economic downturn. Following the lifting of all tightening control by the Hong Kong Government, Grand Victoria experienced strong sales momentum, leading to the Group consistently receiving significant cash returns from the project. The Group’s robust cash contributions from other investment projects and hotel further strengthen its ability to reduce gearing ratio and finance costs. Looking ahead, the Group does not anticipate significant refinancing needs until 2026. These factors demonstrate the Group’s ample financial flexibility and liquidity.

Working Capital and Loan Facilities

As at 31 December 2025, the Group’s total available fund amounted to HK$5,577.0 million (2024: HK$5,642.1 million) which includes the Group’s total pledged bank deposits, time deposits, bank balances and cash of HK$2,340.4 million (2024: HK$2,645.6 million) and unutilised facilities of HK$3,236.6 million (2024: HK$2,996.5 million). The total financial investments (including debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income) amounted to HK$220.4 million as at 31 December 2025 (2024: HK$246.2 million).

Included in the Group’s loan facilities is a committed revolving club loan with approximately HK$1,000.0 million facility amount provided by 7 renowned financial institutions. The committed club loan provides the Group with abundant liquidity, ensuring financing flexibility for future business development.

The Group will continue enhancing its competitive strengths, in order to strive for stable and promising returns, and achieve mutually beneficial objectives.

Salary and benefits of employees are reviewed at least annually both in response to market conditions and trends, and in conjunction with individual appraisals based on qualifications, experience, skills, responsibilities, performance and development potentials. Discretionary bonuses are granted in line with the Group’s financial results and employees’ performance. Fringe benefits including medical insurance scheme, study and training allowances, examination leave and voluntary employer contributions to retirement schemes are offered to employees. In addition, to retain and motivate management staff and good performers, the Company has adopted a share option scheme and a share award scheme to grant options and awards to its employees (including directors of the Company) on a discretionary basis. To further enhance employee relations and communications, recreational activities for general staff with senior management’s participation are arranged.


Outlook

The global economic landscape continues to feature a complex mix of recovery and ongoing uncertainty. According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), global growth is projected at 3.3% in 2026 and 3.2% in 2027. While downside risks remain elevated due to persistent trade fragmentation, geopolitical tensions, potential delays in interest rate cuts, and U.S. tariffs, these pressures are partly offset by continued technology investment and fiscal support in major economies.

China's economy grew 5% in 2025, supported by government stimulus measures, although the property sector remained under pressure and domestic demand stayed weak. Looking ahead to 2026, the growth is expected to maintain stable, with policy focus shifting toward boosting consumption, improving social protection, and rebalancing the economy toward high-value services while maintaining export strength. At the same time, China will continue to make strategic progress in technological innovation and advanced manufacturing.

The Hong Kong's real estate market is expected to maintain positive momentum in long run, continuing the stabilization seen in 2025. Positive drivers include ongoing talent inflows, strong wealth effects from a booming stock market, and the return of mainland Chinese buyers, all supporting growth in quantity and lead to gradual improvement on price. However, the persistent supply overhang and geopolitical risks continue to put pressure and limit the price growth.

Hong Kong's tourism industry is expected to improve in 2026, building on the 2025 performance which visitor arrivals reached almost 50 million. This growth will be supported by mega events and conventions which attract visitors from around the globe. Also, with the operation of new facilities such as the Kai Tak Sports Park in East Kowloon, the Three-runway System and new Terminal 2 at the Hong Kong International Airport, Hong Kong will create a new phase in event and tourism development. While the total number of visitors is expected to rise further, the sector will still face challenges from competition with other regional destinations and ongoing pricing pressures.

The UK economy grew modestly by 1.3% in 2025, held back by fiscal uncertainties and weak consumer spending. Although improving retail sales and business activities provide some grounds for optimism, the outlook suggests a slow recovery. The Group's UK property portfolio will sustain a stable rental income, supported by the long term leases from reputable tenants.

Looking ahead to 2026, ongoing geopolitical tensions and trade conflicts are likely to continue presenting challenges to the business environment. Nevertheless, we remain confident in Hong Kong's resilience and long-term growth potential. The Group is fully committed to proactively capturing emerging opportunities while maintaining prudent financial discipline and a strong balance sheet, ensuring we are well positioned to create sustainable long-term value for our shareholders.
