FINAL RESULTS ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017

CHARACTERISTICS OF 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 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. 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 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.

This announcement, for which the directors of SuperRobotics Limited (the “ Company ”) collectively and individually accept 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 of the Company, 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.

Segment revenue reported above represents revenue generated from external customers. There were no inter-segment sales in the current year (2016: Nil).

Segments results represent (loss incurred)/profit earned by each segment without allocating central administration items including directors’ emoluments, other income, partial other losses, finance costs and income tax expense. This is the measure reported to the chief operating decision-makers for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance.

For the purposes of monitoring segment performance and allocating resources between segments:

  • all assets are allocated to operating segments other than partial property, plant and equipment, partial deposits, prepayment and other receivables, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, restricted bank deposits and cash and cash equivalents that are not attributable to individual segments. Assets used jointly by individual segments are allocated on the basis of the revenues earned by individual segments; and

  • all liabilities are allocated to operating segments other than partial accruals and other payables, tax payables and other borrowings that are not attributable to individual segments.

Note:

  • (a) One of the Company’s subsidiaries in Canada claimed a refundable tax credit in being a qualifying corporation for qualified expenditures on scientific research and experimental development performed in Ontario. The amount of HK$1,591,000 of Ontario innovation tax credit was refunded by Canada Revenue Agency.

6 Loss per share

The calculation of the basic and diluted loss per share attributable to owners of the Company is based on the following data:

Loss for the year attributable to owners of the Company
Number of ordinary shares
Weighted average number of ordinary shares for the purpose of basic
and diluted loss per share
2017
HK$’000

44,946
2016
’000
421,453

For the years ended 31 December 2017 and 31 December 2016, the computation of diluted loss per share does not assume the conversion of the Company’s outstanding preferred shares since their exercise would result in a decrease in loss per share.

Diluted loss per share for the year ended 31 December 2017 equals basic loss per share as the exercise of the outstanding share options would be anti-dilutive.

7 Dividends

The directors of the Company do not recommend any payment of dividends for the year ended 31 December 2017 (2016: Nil).

As of 31 December 2016, the initial accounting has not been completed as the business combination occurred in late November 2016, being close to the Group’s year end and when the fair value is not easily determinable. Therefore, management was in the view of accounting for the business combination using provisionally determined amounts for goodwill, other intangible assets (patents) and deferred tax liabilities arising from business combination as of 31 December 2016. During the year ended 31 December 2017, following the finalisation of the provisional fair values for goodwill, other intangible assets (patents) and deferred tax liabilities, there is no change in the fair value of net assets acquired with no restatement of prior period numbers.

Other intangible asset is amortised over the estimated useful life of 5 years. For the year ended 31 December 2017, amortisation of HK$6,986,000 (2016: HK$684,000) has been charged to “cost of sales” in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

BUSINESS REVIEW

The Group is principally engaged in the sale of beauty products and provision of therapy services (collectively, the “ Beauty Business ”), as well as the provision of engineering products and related services (the “ Engineering Business ”). For the sale of beauty products, the Group offers a variety of beauty products under the brand name “Evidens de Beauté”, and a variety of medical skincare products, including the brand “Activa”. For the provision of therapy services, the Group operates a medical skincare centre under the trade name “COLLAGEN+” at Soundwill Plaza in Causeway Bay.

For the engineering products, the Group offers WLAN and WIFI systems, and robotic products. For the provision of engineering related services, the Group provides equipment installation, support and maintenance services for WLAN and WIFI systems as well as robotics and automation systems.

Despite facing increased competition in the Hong Kong market, the performance of the Beauty Business as a whole has met the expectation of the Board. The revenue derived from the sale of beauty products and the provision of therapy services rendered has reduced by 36.2% and 2.4% to HK$4.2 million and HK$42.4 million, respectively for the year ended 31 December 2017. However, the gross profit generated from the Beauty Business was increased by 3.0% to HK$16.3 million for the year under review.

For Engineering Business, during the financial year of 2017, the Group has completed the acquisition of Anzer and has been expanding its production capacity for its robotics products. Following the acquisition of Anzer, in addition to the development of their own technology and product advantages, the Group has taken an active role in strengthening specialized technology cooperation with other platforms whereas a strategic cooperation framework agreement was entered into with the Chinese Academy of Medical Science Biomedical Engineering Research Institute in late February 2017. During the financial period, the Group has stepped up its marketing efforts to promote robotic products. On 28 July 2017, the Company held a global robotics conference in Shenzhen to launch more than ten new products for police use, commercial use and civilian use. Those products have received wide positive feedback from the participants of the conference. The Group is in the midst of construction of production plant at Shenzhen, the PRC. Upon the completion of the plant, the Group will be able to commence mass production of its various robotics products. For the year under review the revenue of the Engineering Business has increased by 180.3% and contributed a total revenue of HK$32.2 million, which was entirely attributable to sale of robotic products, to the total turnover of the Group. Also, the Engineering Business has generated a gross profit of HK$14.1 million, a significant improvement compared with a gross loss of HK$39.5 million for the financial year ended 31 December 2016.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

During the year under review, the Group recorded a turnover of approximately HK$78.8 million (for the financial year ended 31 December 2016: approximately HK$61.5 million), of which approximately HK$4.2 million (for the financial year ended 31 December 2016: approximately HK$6.6 million), HK$42.4 million (for the financial year ended 31 December 2016: approximately

— 17 —

HK$43.4 million) and HK$32.2 million (for the financial year ended 31 December 2016: HK$11.5 million) were generated from the sale of beauty products, provision of therapy services and the Engineering Business respectively.

The Beauty Business in aggregate contributed approximately HK$46.6 million to the turnover of the Group, representing approximately 59.2% of the turnover, of which approximately HK$4.2 million and HK$42.4 million were generated from the sale of beauty products and provision of therapy services respectively. The Engineering Business contributed approximately HK$32.2 million to the turnover of the Group, representing approximately 40.8% of the turnover.

For the year ended 31 December 2017, the gross profit was approximately HK$30.4 million and the gross profit margin was approximately 38.5% (for the financial year ended 31 December 2016: negative gross margin of 73.9%). The Beauty Business in aggregate contributed approximately HK$16.3 million gross profit to the Group, while the Engineering Business recorded a gross profit of approximately HK$14.1 million. The improvement in gross profit margin was mainly due to decrease in the cost of sales and increase in revenue of the Engineering Business and decrease in impairment loss recognised on certain equipment. As announced by the Company on 30 December 2016, the Company has received a notice of termination of the cooperation agreement dated 24 October 2016 entered into between Shenzhen Donica Networking Technology Co. Ltd., an indirect whollyowned subsidiary of the Company and an airline company in the PRC (the “ 2016 Cooperation Agreement ”). The Directors have assessed the recoverability of certain equipment purchased for the 2016 Cooperation Agreement and determined that the recoverable amount was less than the carrying value of these equipment and, therefore, an impairment loss was recognised in cost of sales for the financial year ended 31 December 2016. There is no such impairment being recognised in the financial year ended 31 December 2017.

During the year under review, other income was approximately HK$0.8 million (for the financial year ended 31 December 2016: approximately HK$0.3 million). The increase in other income was mainly attributable to an increase in interest income on bank deposits of approximately HK$0.2 million and sundry income of approximately HK$0.3 million.

Net other gains or losses was a gain of approximately HK$0.8 million, which was mainly attributable to the gain on disposal of fixed assets of approximately HK$1.1 million, which was offset by change in fair value of investment in listed securities amounted to approximately HK$0.3 million.

The selling and distribution costs for the year ended 31 December 2017 was approximately HK$8.6 million (for the financial year ended 31 December 2016: approximately HK$12.2 million). The selling and distribution costs of the Beauty Business and the Engineering Business accounted for approximately 50.0% or HK$4.3 million and approximately 48.8% or HK$4.2 million of the total selling and distribution costs, respectively. The decrease in selling and distribution costs was mainly due to a decrease in marketing cost incurred by Engineering Business amounting to HK$3.5 million.

OUTLOOK

China’s robotics research and development started in the 1970s whereas the robotics market reached RMB14 billion in 2016 with a 56% year-on-year growth in annual sales. Lately, as announced by President Xi Jinping during his important speech at the 19th Communist Party of China National Congress, initiatives including aiming at technological fronts, ramping up disruptive technological innovations, and providing a reinforced underpinning for evolving into a nation with superb scientific and technological power, a digitalized China, and a smart society are to be taken. To facilitate the transition of technological results, the upcoming few years represent a pivotal moment for the tremendous development of robotics in the PRC, particularly the market of robotics which specialises in special services. The rapid popularization of the Internet, the emerging and flourishing artificial intelligence, and the speedy development of information technologies all present new opportunities for the high-speed development of robotics in the PRC. The robotics market would grow by leaps and bounds in a straight-line trajectory, and the whole robotics market is expected

— 22 —

to reach approximately RMB20 billion in 2017. Looking ahead, the Group believes there will be enormous potential for market development for the robotics market in the PRC. On the back of artificial intelligence techniques, the next five years would witness the development of a smart city in full swing. The application of intelligent robotics for public services and the modes of services would grow relentlessly. As forecasted by the Report on the Development of the Robotics Industry in China, the global market of robotics would reach USD6.9 billion in the next five years.

In the future, the Group will continue to focus on three robotic production lines: police use, commercial use and civilian use, in accordance with market conditions and the status of product development. The Group will also incorporate its experience in diversified robotic technology so as to commit itself to producing customised robots and providing total mechatronic solutions for customers across various industries. Meanwhile, in view of the unstable supplies from suppliers during the third quarter, the Group will improve its communication with our suppliers, expand procurement channels and actively examine replacement components in the future to reduce uncertainties in supply chain.

In October 2017, the fifth amendment to the “Operation Certification Rules for Civil Aviation Transportation Carriers with Large Airplanes” promulgated by the Civil Aviation Administration of China officially came into effect, which relaxed the rules on using portable electronic devices on flights and delegated the authority on access to WIFI services to each civil airline. The Board is of the view that such delegation implies that each civil airline is to bear corresponding safety responsibilities on their own. It is estimated that the speed of launching such service may vary among civil airlines and some small and medium-sized civil airlines may not offer WIFI services at present. Therefore, the Board is prudent and concerned about the prospect of in-flight WIFI services. The Directors did not expect any significant change in the Group’s Beauty Business.
