THIRD QUARTERLY RESULTS ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2012
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE GROWTH ENTERPRISE MARKET (“GEM”) OF THE STOCK EXCHANGE OF HONG KONG LIMITED (THE “STOCK EXCHANGE”)
GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate companies to which a higher investment risk may be attached other than 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 and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.
Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited and The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited take no responsibility for the contents of this announcement, make no representation as to its accuracy or completeness and expressly disclaim any liability whatsoever for any loss howsoever arising from or in reliance upon the whole or any part of the contents of this announcement.
This announcement, for which the directors of Sing Lee Software (Group) Limited (the “Company”) (the “Directors”) collectively and individually accept full responsibility, includes particulars given in compliance with the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Growth Enterprise Market of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited for the purpose of giving information with regard to the Company. The Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, confirm that, to the best of their knowledge and belief the information contained in this announcement is accurate and complete in all material respects and not misleading or deceptive, and there are no other matters the omission of which would make any statement herein or this announcement misleading.

Under the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda (“Companies Act”), share premium is distributable to shareholders, subject to the condition that the Company cannot declare or pay a dividend, or make a distribution out of share premium and capital reserve if (i) it is, or would after the payment be, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due, or (ii) the realizable value of its assets would thereby be less than the aggregate of its liabilities and its issued share capital account.
As stipulated by the relevant laws and regulations for foreign investment enterprises in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), the Company’s PRC subsidiaries are required to maintain two statutory reserves, being an enterprise expansion fund and a statutory surplus reserve fund which are nondistributable. Appropriations to such reserves are made out of net profit after taxation reported in the statutory financial statements of the PRC subsidiaries while the amounts and allocation basis are decided by their respective boards of directors annually. The statutory surplus reserve fund can be used to make up their prior year losses, if any, and can be applied in conversion into capital by means of capitalization issue. The enterprise expansion fund is used for expanding the capital base of the PRC subsidiaries by means of capitalization issue.

In 2010, Singlee Technology is a High and New Technology Enterprise defined by Zhejiang Finance Bureau, Administrator of Local Taxation of Zhejiang Municipality and Zhejiang Municipal office of the State Administration of Taxation and therefore is entitled to 15% preferential tax rate from PRC Enterprise Income Tax for three years starting from 2010.

4. INCOME TAX EXPENSE (Cont’d)
No provision for Hong Kong Profits Tax has been made as the Group had no estimated assessable profits arising from Hong Kong during the nine months ended 30 September 2012 and 2011.
There was no significant unprovided deferred taxation for the reported periods.
Note:
- (a) Tax paid in respect to business operation and interest income of PRC source.
5. EARNING (LOSS) PER SHARE
The calculation of basic earning (loss) per share for the three months and nine months ended 30 September 2012 were based on the net profit attributable to the owners of the Company of RMB434,000 (2011: net loss of RMB7,557,000) for the three months ended 30 September 2012 and the net loss attributable to owners of the company of RMB7,158,000 (2011: net loss of RMB23,982,000) for the nine months ended 30 September 2012 and the weighted average number of shares of 811,840,000 (2011: 811,840,000) in issue throughout the period.
No diluted earning (loss) per share has been presented for each of the nine months and three months ended 30 September 2012 and 2011 because the Company’s outstanding share options during the nine months and three months ended 30 September 2012 and 2011 have an anti-dilutive impact.
6. DIVIDEND
The Board does not recommend the payment of dividend for the nine months ended 30 September 2012 (nine months ended 30 September 2011: Nil).

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Financial review and results of operations
For the nine months ended 30 September 2012, the Group recorded a total revenue of approximately RMB26,392,000, an increase of 116% as compared to the same period of last year (For the nine months ended 30 September 2011: approximately RMB12,204,000).
The Group recorded a loss of approximately RMB7,158,000 for the three quarters of 2012, a decrease of 70% as compared to the same period of last year (For the nine months ended 30 September 2011: net loss approximately RMB23,982,000). Increase in turnover and decrease in equity-settled share-based payment are of the factors leading to the decrease in loss.
During the nine months ended 30 September 2012, the Company recorded equity-settled share-based payment and fair value gain on derivative financial liability of approximately RMB1,521,000 (For the nine months ended 30 September 2011: RMB24,689,000) and nil (For the nine months ended 30 September 2011: RMB25,420,000) respectively. The equity-settled share-based payment was allocated between the cost of sales, distribution and selling expenses and administrative expenses amounting to RMB272,000, RMB83,000 and RMB1,166,000 respectively.
We will continue striving our best to increase sales and strengthen our cost control measures. With the products of our Group becoming more mature in the market and the effective cost control, we expect that financial results of the group would be further improved in the coming quarter.
BUSINESS REVIEW
“Mobile Payment” of Mobile Electronic Commerce
Launched by the Group in this quarter, “Bank-College Express” is an innovation platform that is marked by the following unique innovative features:
-
1) This platform is a comprehensive payment service home platform that establishes a base from which the payment services for the Group’s online and offline customers are integrated. This platform can help enhance the presence of Sing Lee Group;
-
2) All of the online and offline customers of this platform have become part of the customer mix of Sing Lee Group. With this platform, we have fundamentally changed from a passive role as a partner working with banks in respect of the traditional “Bank-School Express”(「銀校通」) products. As indicated by statistics, up to 28 September 2012, the number of offline customers of this platform is over 1,000,000, including users from over 70 institutions in Zhejiang, Beijing, Shandong, Guangdong, Henan and Yunnan, etc.;
7
- 3) This platform is a home platform for diversified products. In this quarter, the number of new online customers is more than 6,000, with a transaction amount of over RMB30,000,000. Though active marketing efforts are yet to be made by the Group, the potential and prospect of the Group’s innovative “Bank-School Express”(「銀校通」)platform have been already shown.
RUNPOS(soft POS) business
In this quarter, prominent results were attained in the market for the Group’s RUNPOS (soft POS) second-generation products, namely “Bank-Hospital Express”(「銀醫通」)and the “Bank-Business Express”(「銀商通」). In the nationwide tender made by MISPOS Agricultural Bank of China, the Group was offered the tender, in which the Group will complete a number of projects for Agricultural Bank of China in six key provinces and eight preparatory provinces. The offering of the tender from the Agricultural Bank of China will bring larger sales volume to the Group while substantially raising the Group’s MISPOS market share across the country.
In relation to the MISPOS comprehensive remodeling project of the headquarter of China Construction Bank Corporation, the Group has been recommended by the headquarter to participate in the next year’s tender. This participation will help extend the Group’s reach into more new provinces, thereby further expanding the sales volume of MISPOS. It will also speed up the rapid development of the Group’s RUNPOS(soft POS) third-generation products – mobile payment services, so as to build a broader market base for the Group’s mobile payment business.
FUTURE OUTLOOK
During this quarter, to ensure the successful implementation of the seamless integration strategy relating to the offline and online operations of RUNPOS(soft POS) second and third-generation “mobile payment” services, the Group has continuously devoted greater costs to a number of areas including human resources, R&D of innovative technology, marketing efforts and product promotion. However, the Group’s sales revenue rose by more than a double over the same period last year. We consider that all these factors are strategically crucial for us to fuel our long-term development and strengthen our core competitiveness. The Group’s management at all levels will evaluate all projects strictly and carefully, and will reinforce risk exposure control on centralization of management, thereby ensuring the effectiveness and success of each project.
