CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM OF THE STOCK EXCHANGE OF HONG KONG LIMITED (THE “STOCK EXCHANGE”)
GEM has been positioned as a market designed to accommodate small and mid-sized companies to which a higher investment risk may be attached than other 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.
Given that the companies listed on GEM are generally small and mid-sized companies, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange 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 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 (collectively the “Directors” and individually a “Director”) of Sunray Engineering Group Limited (the “Company”) collectively and individually accept full responsibility, includes particulars given in compliance with the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on GEM of the Stock Exchange (the “GEM Listing Rules”) 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.

On 21 March 2018, the Hong Kong Legislative Council passed The Inland Revenue (Amendment) (No. 7) Bill 2017 (the “Bill”) which introduces the two-tiered profits tax rates regime.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin
Gross profit decreased from approximately HK$57.9 million for the nine months ended 31 December 2019 to approximately HK$41.6 million for the nine months ended 31 December 2020, representing a decrease of approximately HK$16.3 million, or 28.2%. Gross profit margin decreased from approximately 41.8% for the nine months ended 31 December 2019 to approximately 34.8% for the nine months ended 31 December 2020. Such decrease in gross profit margin was mainly due to (i) the increase in number of workers hired by the Group as well as the overall increase in material costs; and (ii) some of the Group’s building protection work projects on hand with higher gross profit margin were at their ending phase, with revenue already recognised in prior years.
Other Income, Gains and Losses
Other income increased from approximately HK$131,000 for the nine months ended 31 December 2019 to approximately HK$1.9 million for the nine months ended 31 December 2020. Such increase was mainly attributable to the subsidy received from the Hong Kong government under the Employment Support Scheme, an anti-epidemic fund launched in May 2020. Other losses, on a net basis, amounted to approximately HK$485,000 for the nine months ended 31 December 2019 and other gain, on a net basis, amounted to approximately HK$389,000 for the nine months ended 31 December 2020. Such change in other gains and losses was mainly attributable to the increase in exchange gain for the nine months 31 December 2020.
Selling and Distribution Costs
Selling and distribution costs increased from approximately HK$4.1 million for the nine months ended 31 December 2019 to approximately HK$4.9 million for the nine months ended 31 December 2020, representing an increase of approximately HK$0.8 million, or 19.5%. Such increase in selling and distribution costs was mainly attributable to the increase in transportation and storage cost.
Administrative Expenses
Administrative expenses increased from approximately HK$24.0 million for the nine months ended 31 December 2019 to approximately HK$27.1 million for the nine months ended 31 December 2020, representing an increase of approximately HK$3.1 million, or 12.9%. Such increase in administrative expenses was mainly attributable to the increase in staff costs and professional fees after the Listing.
Listing Expenses
Listing expenses significantly decreased by approximately HK$5.3 million from approximately HK$6.3 million for the nine months ended 31 December 2019 to approximately HK$926,000 for the nine months ended 31 December 2020.
Finance Costs

Profit and Total Comprehensive Income for the Period
As a result of the foregoing, profit and total comprehensive income decreased from approximately HK$16.8 million for the nine months ended 31 December 2019 to approximately HK$7.4 million for the nine months ended 31 December 2020.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Save as disclosed above, the Group will apply the Net Proceeds in the same proportion and in the manners consistent with the proposed applications as set out in the section headed “Business Objective, Future Plans and Use of Proceeds” in the Prospectus. The implementation plans for business strategies and the use of net proceeds as stated in the Prospectus were based on the best estimation and assumption of future market conditions made by the Group at the time of preparing the Prospectus. The Group implemented its business strategies and applied the Net Proceeds based on the actual developments of the Group’s business and industry, as well as market conditions.
FUTURE PROSPECTS
The impacts of COVID-19 epidemic (the “Epidemic”) have caused pressure worldwide and dampened the development of various industries, with no exception for the construction industry. Due to the sudden and rapid spread of the Epidemic, a series of enhanced precautionary and control measures have been undertaken by the governments across the world including Hong Kong and Macau. The significant reduction of social and business activities and the subsequent quarantine measures have adversely affected the economy in Hong Kong, including the slowdown in the progress of construction projects. As a result, some of the Group’s building protection works in the construction site have been held up or delayed, such influences might continue until the Epidemic was contained and this would affect the operational and financial performance of the Group.
The Group estimates that the degree of COVID-19 impact would be dependent on the outcome of various preventive measures and the duration of the Epidemic. The Group is closely monitoring the market development and continuously evaluating the financial impact of the COVID-19 situation. Given the unpredictability of future development of COVID-19, the impacts to the Group could not be reasonably and accurately estimated at this stage. However, for the time being, the Group’s building protection work projects on hand are in steady progress and the Group did not experience any shortages or difficulties in the supply of building protection products.
Since the outbreak of the Epidemic in the early 2020, the Group has implemented measures, including frequent workspace cleaning with disinfectant, ensuring the wearing of face masks of all staff at work, and conducting body temperature test to protect the health and safety of the employees. The Group will continue to closely monitor the development of the Epidemic and will take necessary actions to control costs and drive efficiency to maintain profitability and competitiveness in the market.
Going forward, the Group will continue to strengthen its market position by expanding its workforce and competing for more building protection work projects in Hong Kong. The Directors remain confident in the prospect of the Group and are committed in creating long-term and sustainable value for the Company and its shareholders.
ENVIRONMENT POLICIES AND PERFORMANCE
The Group is committed to enhancing environmental protection to minimise the impact of its activities on the environment. It is the policy of the Group to promote clean operation and strive to make the most efficient use of resources in its operations, and minimising wastes and emission.
As a building protection solution provider, the Group will continue to monitor its business operations in order to ensure that it does not have any significant adverse effect on the environment and that the Group’s environment protection measures are adequate to ensure compliance with all applicable laws or regulations in Hong Kong.
As at the date of this report, no prosecution, penalty or punishment has been imposed upon the Group for the violation of any applicable environmental laws or regulations.

OTHER INFORMATION
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Under code provision A.2.1 of the CG Code, the roles of chairman and chief executive officer should be separate and should not be performed by the same individual. Since the Listing Date and up to 31 December 2020, Mr. Lam was the chairman of the Board and the chief executive officer of the Group. In view of the fact that Mr. Lam has been operating and managing the Group since its establishment, the Directors believe that it is in the best interest of the Group to have Mr. Lam taking up both roles for effective management and business development. Therefore, the Board considers that deviation from code provision A.2.1 of the CG Code is appropriate in such circumstance.

The Company has adopted a Code of Ethics and Securities Transactions on terms no less exacting than the required standard of dealings set out in Rules 5.48 to 5.67 of the GEM Listing Rules as its own code of conduct regarding securities transactions by Directors.
