In the opinion of the directors of the Company (the “Directors”), the single largest shareholder of the Company is Timcha Investment Limited (“Timcha”), a company wholly owned by 江陰星輝文化傳播有限公司 (Jiangyin Starlight Communications Co., Ltd.)$^{a}$, a limited company incorporated in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”).

2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES INFORMATION

2.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with HKFRS Accounting Standards issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountings (“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 on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (“Listing Rules”) and by the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

Going concern assessment

As of 31 December 2025, the Group had net current liabilities and net deficit of approximately HK$262,078,000 and HK$136,103,000 respectively. As at the same date, the Group’s interest-bearing borrowings and film investment loans, derivative financial liabilities and financial liabilities at FVTPL amounted to approximately HK$263,206,000 in total, while its cash and cash equivalents only amounted to HK$13,220,000.

As at 31 December 2025, the Group defaulted on repayment of certain principal and interest for interest-bearing borrowings and film investment loans, derivative financial liabilities and financial liabilities at FVTPL amounting to approximately HK$150,484,000, HK$25,658,000 and HK$67,349,000, respectively. As at 31 December 2025, the others principal and interest for interest-bearing borrowings and film investment loans, derivative financial liabilities and financial liabilities at FVTPL amounting to approximately HK$15,570,000, HK$1,345,000 and HK$2,800,000, respectively, which were not defaulted and repayable within one year.

These conditions indicate the existence of material uncertainties which may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, the Group may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Group has developed and implemented the following liquidity plans and measures to address the going concern issue:

(a) The Group has been actively negotiating with lenders for renewal and extension for repayments of the overdue borrowings to reduce the liquidity pressure of the Group. In 2024 and 2025, the Group has repaid loans in the amount of approximately HK$76.1 million and approximately HK$32.0 million respectively;

(b) The Group has been exploring the possibility of raising capital by way of equity financing to support the Group to explore new business opportunities, including but not limited to the satellite business, to broaden the Group’s client and revenue base and increase investment returns to the shareholders of the Company;

(c) The Group will continue to implement business strategy to enhance the Group’s profitability and cash inflows; and

(d) The Group will continue to take active measures to control costs and prioritise film investments expenditures so as to improve the Group’s cash outflows.


The directors of the Company are of the opinion that, after the abovementioned plans and measures progressively take effect, the financial condition of the Group will be restored and the material uncertainties relating to going concern will be properly addressed. The directors of the Company therefore hold the view that the Group will have sufficient working capital to meet its financial obligations as and when they fall due for the next twelve months from 31 December 2025. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

However, should the Group fail to implement the abovementioned plans and measures, it might not be able to continue to operate as a going concern, in which case adjustments might have to be made to the carrying values of the Group's assets to their recoverable amounts, to provide for any further liabilities which might arise and to reclassify the non-current assets as current assets. The effects of these adjustments have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

3. AMENDMENTS TO A HKFRS ACCOUNTING STANDARD THAT ARE MANDATORILY EFFECTIVE FOR THE CURRENT YEAR

In current year, the Group has applied the following amendments to a HKFRS Accounting Standard issued by the HKICPA for the first time, which are mandatorily effective for the Group's annual period 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 a 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.

4. 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 HKFRS 9 and HKFRS 7 Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments²
Amendments to HKFRS 9 and HKFRS 7 Contracts Referencing Nature - dependent Electricity²
Amendments to HKFRS 10 and HKAS 28 Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture¹
Amendments to HKFRS Accounting Standards Annual Improvements to HKFRS Accounting Standards — Volume 11²
HKFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements³
Amendments to HKAS 21 Translation to a Hyperinflationary Presentation Currency³
  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 Standard mentioned below, the directors of the Company anticipate that the application of all other 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 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 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. The application of the new standard is expected to affect the structure and presentation of the statement of profit or loss and disclosures in the future financial statements. The Group is in the process of assessing the detailed impact of HKFRS 18 on the Group's consolidated financial statements.

5. OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION

For management purposes, the Group is organised into business units based on their products and services and has only one reportable operating segment which is the media and culture business segment, of which it engages in investment in the production and distribution of entertainment content such as films and television programs.

HKFRS 8 “Operating Segments” requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reporting about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision-makers in order to allocate resources to segments and to assess their performance. The information reported to the Directors, who are the chief operating decision-makers, for the purpose of resource allocation and assessment of performance does not contain discrete operating segment financial information and the Directors reviewed the financial results of the Group as a whole. Therefore, no further information about the operating segment is presented.

11. EARNINGS/(LOSS) PER SHARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO OWNERS OF THE PARENT

The calculation of the basic and diluted earnings/(loss) per share amounts is based on loss for the year attributable to owners of the parent, and the weighted average number of ordinary shares of 120,397,849 (2024: 98,246,644) in issue during the year.

The Group had no potentially dilutive ordinary shares in issue during the years ended 31 December 2025 and 2024.

2025 2024
Profit/(loss) attributable to owners of the parent (HK$'000) 202,851 (28,382)
Weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year used in the basic and diluted loss per share calculation 120,397,849 98,246,644
Basic and diluted earnings/(loss) per share (HK$) 1.68 (0.29)

| Trade receivables | 20,849 | 96,152 |
| Impairment | (18,819) | (96,152) |
| Net carrying amount | 2,030 | – |

As at 1 January 2024, trade receivables from contracts with customers amounted to HK$12,006,000.

Trade receivables from royalties from films are due when reported to the Group, and normally settled within one year. Trade receivables from sales of investment in television programs and program rights are due based on the payment schedule specified in contracts. Trade receivables from other revenue sources are generally due within one year from the date of provision of services. The Group does not hold any collateral or other credit enhancements over its trade receivable balances. Trade receivables are unsecured and non-interest-bearing.

An aging analysis of the trade receivables as at the end of the reporting period, based on the invoice dates or dates of statement of net receipt, and net of loss allowance, is as follows:

| | 2025

| Exchange realignments | 666 | (2,710) |

Note: For the year ended 31 December 2025, the Group disposed of certain subsidiaries and the underlying assets of trade receivables amounting to nil (net of cumulative allowance for credit losses of HK$78,134,000 in total).

An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date using a provision matrix to measure expected credit losses. The provision rates are based on days past due for groupings of various customer segments with similar loss patterns (i.e., by geographical region and customer type). The calculation reflects the probability-weighted outcome, the time value of money and reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

BUSINESS AND OPERATION REVIEW

In recent years, the media business of the world is gradually rebounding from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic which has spread all over the world in the year of 2019 and the strikes of the Writers Guild of America and Screen Actors Guild-AFTRA in 2023. Delays in distribution, settlement as well as receipt of income of TV drama and film investments of the Company significantly and negatively affected the operating results regarding these investments, which has been reducing the amount of revenue recognized for a few years. The slow-down of business activities and postponement of some of the film and TV drama projects developed by the Group in prior years have impacted on the financial results of the Group.

Revenue and gross profit from its media and culture business for the year of 2025 was approximately HK$21.9 million and HK$21.9 million respectively (2024: revenue of approximately HK$40.4 million and gross profit of approximately HK$40.4 million). Although there is a decrease in revenue, the Group recorded a one-off net gain on the disposal of subsidiaries of approximately HK$324.7 million and reported a net profit attributable to owners of the Company of approximately HK$202.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2025 (2024: net loss attributable to owners of the Company of approximately HK$28.4 million).

Media and culture operating results

During the year ended 31 December 2025, the Group’s revenue generated from media and culture business amounted to approximately HK$21.9 million (2024: approximately HK$40.4 million), with a gross profit of approximately HK$21.9 million (2024: approximately HK$40.4 million).

In recent years, the media business of the world is gradually rebounding from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic which has spread all over the world in the year of 2019 and the strikes of the Writers Guild of America and Screen Actors Guild-AFTRA in 2023. Business activities slowed down and some of the film and TV drama projects being developed by the Group have been postponed. Delays in distribution, settlement as well as receipt of income of TV drama and film investments of the Company significantly and negatively affected the future cash flow projections regarding these investments, which in turn reduced the amount of revenue recognized during recent years.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The Group reported a net profit attributable to owners of the Company of approximately HK$202.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2025 (2024: net loss attributable to owners of the Company of approximately HK$28.4 million).

The Board considers that while the turnaround from loss to profit in the year of 2025 compared to the year of 2024 was mainly attributable to a one-off net gain on the disposal of subsidiaries of approximately HK$324.7 million, while such subsidiaries had a net liability position upon the disposal.

Basic profit per share for the year amounted to approximately HK$1.68 (2024: basic loss per share of approximately HK$0.29). Net deficit of the Group were approximately HK$136.1 million (2024: approximately HK$382.0 million).


FUTURE PLANS AND PROSPECTS

Up to the date of this announcement, the economic downturn and the negative prolonged impact of COVID-19 epidemic will be a mid-to long term issue. The world is gradually rebounding from the impact and the management reasonably foreseen that the business activities of the media and culture business of the Group would resume to a normal level in the long term.

In addition, the strikes of the Writers Guild of America and Screen Actors Guild-AFTRA in 2023 has adversely affected the development, production and distribution of feature films and TV and streaming TV programming in the USA.

However, as it takes time for the entire business cycle of the Group to get back on track, it is probable that these negative impacts may continue to be reflected in the financial results of Group in the coming year(s).

The Group has been exploring new business opportunities, including but not limited to the satellite business, transportation AI and smart vehicle networking business and producing short videos and web series drama, to broaden the Group's client and revenue base and increase investment returns to the shareholders of the Company. Details of the new businesses are outlined below:

  • The Group has cooperated with Mango Media SDN. BHD to produce two web-series and expects to release the two web-series in the first half of 2026;

27


  • In relation to the transportation AI and smart vehicle networking business, the Company entered into a non-legally binding letter of intent for a potential acquisition on 20 August 2025. The Company intends to carry out the potential acquisition of not less than 51% equity interest in a Shanghai Mission Information Technologies Corp., Ltd. The Board believes that the potential acquisition will enable the Group to embark on entirely new business development in the fields of transportation artificial intelligence and smart vehicle networking. Given the rapid development of transportation AI and rail transit both nationally and globally, the business has significant growth potential. Additionally, it will expand the Group’s customer base and enhance the visibility of the listed company. The Board believes that if the Potential Acquisition materializes, it will effectively strengthen the Group’s core competitive barriers and create strategic pivot and returns for long-term shareholder value enhancement.

  • In relation to the satellite business, the Company entered into non-legally binding letter of intents with Sparklinka Limited (“Sparklinka”) and Beijing Commsat Technology Development Co., Ltd. (“COMMSAT”) respectively on 10 March 2026. The Group will collaborate with Sparklinka to research, develop, and manufacture a trial satellite supporting mobile phone direct connectivity. The communication tests and technical verification of the trial satellite will be conducted in the Middle East, Central Asia, and Southeast Asia. Entering into the Mobile Phone Direct-to-Satellite Cooperation Intention Agreement allows the Group and Sparklinka to establish a long-term and stable strategic partnership, thus to promote collaboration and development in satellite communication services for both parties. While the business of COMMSAT involves customized commercial satellite, constellation core services, and so on. By leasing its facilities, the Group is able to carry out production and manufacture for its overseas satellite orders acquired, and achieve stable production management, order fulfillment, and quality control for the Group’s upcoming satellite communication business, thereby fostering the long-term development of the Group in satellite construction and satellite communication operations. The Board believes that the Satellite Factory Leasing Strategic Cooperation Intention Agreement and the Mobile Phone Direct-to-Satellite Cooperation Intention Agreement will broaden the Group’s future revenue base and are expected to enhance the investment returns to shareholders.

28


With an aim to turnaround from the making of loss and safeguard returns to the shareholders of the Company, the Group is in the process of reviewing the future prospect and development of its other business segments, and at the same time exploring new business opportunities and making more efforts to explore market opportunities in Mainland China.

SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT, MATERIAL ACQUISITION AND DISPOSAL

There is no significant investment held and no material acquisition and disposal conducted by the Group during the year that should be notified to the shareholders of the Company.

There was no formal plan authorised by the Board for any significant investments, material acquisitions or disposals as at 31 December 2025 and up to the date of this announcement.

DIVIDEND

The Board does not recommend the payment of a final dividend for the year ended 31 December 2025 (31 December 2024: NIL).

LITIGATIONS

Results of Arbitrations

The Board wishes to inform the shareholders and potential investors of the Company that, three arbitration proceedings (the "Arbitrations") have been commenced against the Group, all of which relate to loans and/or investments arranged by the a former director of the Company (the "Former Director") in connection with the Group's investment in film production business in previous years (the "Film Investment Business").

29


Two of the Arbitrations have been concluded, both with outcomes unfavourable to the Group. In each case, the relevant plaintiff (the "Plaintiff") claimed that it had advanced funds (the "Advances") to the Group for the purposes of a film investment, namely the movie "Malignant", notwithstanding that the underlying loan contracts were entered into between the Group and an independent third party. Eventually, the Group has settled with the Plaintiff and has repaid the Advances together with accrued interest to the Plaintiff. Save for legal costs and arbitration fees, there was no additional compensation or other amounts that the arbitral tribunal had ordered the Group to pay.

The amounts which the Group was required to settle with the Plaintiff were limited to the Advances actually received by the Group, together with accrued interest thereon, all of which had been properly recognized in the Group's consolidated statement of financial position in prior financial years. With respect to the third Arbitration which remains ongoing, the Board is of the view that, even in the worst case scenario, any liability of the Group would similarly be limited to the amount of the loan advanced by the relevant plaintiff, together with accrued interest. Accordingly, the Board considers that there are no other significant contingent liabilities to the Group arising from the Arbitrations.

In light of the above, the Board has engaged legal advisers to gather all relevant information regarding the Advances and other loans arranged by the Former Director in connection with the Film Investment Business, and to obtain the relevant documentation, in order to properly protect the interests of the Group.

The Company will keep its shareholders and potential investors informed of any further material developments in connection with the above matters by way of further announcement(s) as and when required in accordance with the applicable requirements under the Listing Rules.

EXTRACTS FROM INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

The followings are extracted from the Independent Auditors Report on the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2025.

DISCLAIMER OF OPINION

We do not express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements of the Group. Because of the significance of the matter described in the “Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion” section of our report, we have not been able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on these consolidated financial statements. In all other respects, in our opinion, the consolidated financial statements have been properly prepared in compliance with the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.


38

BASIS FOR DISCLAIMER OF OPINION

Scope Limitation Relating to the Going Concern Basis of Preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements

The Group recorded net current liabilities and net deficit of approximately HK$262,078,000 and HK$136,103,000 as at 31 December 2025. As at the same date, the Group’s total interest-bearing borrowings and film investment loans, derivative financial liabilities and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss amounted to approximately HK$263,206,000 in total, while the Group’s cash and cash equivalents only amounted to approximately HK$13,220,000.

As at 31 December 2025, the Group defaulted on repayment of certain principal and interest for interest-bearing borrowings and film investment loans, derivative financial liabilities and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss amounting to approximately HK$150,484,000, HK$25,658,000 and HK$67,349,000, respectively. As at 31 December 2025, the others principal and interest for interest-bearing borrowings and film investment loans, derivative financial liabilities and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss amounting to approximately HK$15,570,000, HK$1,345,000 and HK$2,800,000, respectively, which were not defaulted and repayable within one year.

These conditions, described above indicate the existence of material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, and therefore, it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

The directors of the Company have carried out a detailed review of the cash flow forecast of the Group for the next twelve months from the date of the consolidated financial statements are authorised for issue and have undertaken plans and measures to improve the Group’s liquidity and financial position, details of which are set out in note 2.1 to the consolidated financial statements.


The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis on the bases and assumptions that the plans and measures would be successfully implemented, including but not limited to the Group is able to obtain renewal and/or extension for repayments for the overdue borrowings.

However, no written contractual agreement or confirmation from the lenders to grant extension of repayment, are available to the Group. In these circumstances, we are unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to satisfy ourselves that the use of the going concern basis for preparing the consolidated financial statements is appropriate.

Should the Group fail to achieve the above-mentioned plans and measures, it might not be able to continue to operate as a going concern, and adjustments would have to be made to write down the carrying values of the Group's assets to their recoverable amounts and to reclassify non-current assets to current assets. The effects of these adjustments have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

The possible effects on the consolidated financial statements of undetected misstatements, if any, could be both material and pervasive.

The Board’s response to the basis for disclaimer of opinion

The Group has been actively negotiating with lenders for re-financing and/or extension of repayments of overdue borrowings. At the material time of preparation of the Cashflow Forecast and up to the date hereof, the Group was still in the course of negotiating with the lenders and could not provide lenders’ consents on the re-financing or extension of repayments of overdue borrowings as requested by the Auditors.

At the same time, the Group is exploring new financing opportunities such as share subscription and sales of partial of the film project’s interests. These financing opportunities are still under internal discussion stage and so no detailed plan/evidence could be provided to the Auditors at this stage.

39


The Group expected that new business would commence in 2026 generating new sources of income. At the material time of preparation of the Cashflow Forecast, the Group is still discussing with the potential business partners on certain terms and conditions, and thus, certain of these business cooperation agreements or memorandums of understanding has yet to be entered into. Consequently, no evidence is provided to prove the validity of new sources of income as requested by the Auditors.

PURCHASE, SALE OR REDEMPTION OF THE COMPANY'S LISTED SECURITIES

During the year ended 31 December 2025, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has purchased, sold or redeemed any of the Company's listed securities.
