FIRST QUARTERLY REPORT FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED 31 MARCH 2016

  • For identification purposes only

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 high investment risk may be attached other than companies listed on the 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 report, 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 report.

This report, 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 report 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 report 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 non-distributable. 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.

The increase in the turnover of the Group was mainly attributable to the increase in the revenue of the Group’s provision of software-related technical support service. Cost of sales for the three months ended 31 March 2016 increased by 19% to approximately RMB5,708,000 (For the three months ended 31 March 2015: approximately RMB4,809,000). Increase in cost of sales mainly due to more technical staff was hired under technical service department for higher quality products and services in the current period.

The increased in administrative expenses was mainly due to the increased in staff cost. For the distribution and selling expenses, it is decreased by 28% to RMB1,792,000 (For the three months ended 31 March 2015: approximately RMB2,500,000). Besides, research and development costs decreased by 24% to approximately RMB2,097,000 (For the three months ended 31 March 2015: approximately RMB2,745,000). The decrease in distribution and selling expenses and research and development costs were due to our effective cost control measures. Other income included refund of value added tax and interest income; and other gains and losses included exchange differences and fair value changes in investment fund.

Finance costs for three months ended 31 March 2016 was approximately RMB226,000, not much movement when compared to the same period of last year. (For the three months ended 31 March 2015: approximately RMB201,000).

Increase in revenue is the main factors leading to the decrease in loss.

6

During the three months ended 31 March 2016, the Company recorded equity-settled share-based payment of RMB533,000 (For the three months ended 31 March 2015: RMBNil). The equity-settled share-based payment for the three months ended 31 March 2016 was allocated between the cost of sales, distribution and selling expenses and administrative expenses amounting to RMB99,000, RMB85,000 and RMB349,000 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 improved in the coming quarter.

BUSINESS REVIEW

Overall Business of the Group in the First Quarter

Though the growth of the financial sector was less than expected in the first quarter of 2016, driven by its more-than-doubled earnings in 2015, the Group continued to expand its market shares as boosted by its three mainstay products, i.e. “Bank-Business Express”, capital and risk control products and banking outsourcing service products. While the first quarter of each year is the slack season for the industry, the Group managed to reduce its loss for the quarter by 22% as compared with the same period of 2015 through continuous increases in investment, marking the first year-on-year decrease in first-quarter loss recorded by the Group in recent years.

As the PRC government continued to promote structural financial reforms, open up more markets and place increasing importance on private capital, the Group had devoted massive ongoing R&D efforts, huge manpower, material and financial resources on relevant products since 2013, and eventually created its three mainstay products, which subsequently have become the core of its traditional business and innovative mobile business arising from traditional business. In particular, “Bank-Business Express” integrated payment products allow both online and offline payment, and capital and risk control products focus on the risk control systems of small and medium-sized joint-stock banks. Banking outsourcing service products maintained a steady growth, securing cooperation with provincial branches of ICBC in the O2O (offline to online) area with new operation maintenance products.

7

With the reintegration of medical information products, “Bank-Hospital Express” and “Bank-School Express” products have gained an increasing number of users, enabling the Group’ big data to maintain its growth momentum in relevant sectors in the medium and long term. “Bank-Hospital Express” and “Bank-School Express” products will get further upgrades and take a role in the O2O (offline to online) business model in the industry, incorporating online and offline functions of both new and traditional products. Furthermore, smart finance hardware is expected to be the trend of market development.

OUTLOOK

Banking outsourcing service products, “Bank-School Express” and “BankHospital Express” remain the important sources of the Group’ big data. Based on the mobile payment business, the Group will take advantage of the operation maintenance products arising from continuous integration and extension of traditional businesses to consolidate its big data and online and offline businesses, so as to initiate its unique O2O (offline to online) model. This is best demonstrated by the Group’s cooperation with ICBC in the mobile field.

Despite effective improvement in cost control achieved in 2015, the Group will continue to implement stringent cost control during its continuous business expansion by strengthening risk control over overall and individual business operations, with a view to achieving better effect in identifying new revenue streams and lowering the costs.
