CHARACTERISTICS OF GEM

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 and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM.

REASONS AND BENEFITS FOR THE ACQUISITION

As announced by the Company on 19 May 2022, in order to develop the Group’s business and to cope with the challenging market conditions, the Group is to extend its marketing production business to encompass activities with digital capabilities that its clients will increasingly require. As such, during the slowdown in the marketing production business through the COVID-19 pandemic, the Group has secured an opportunity to partner with a US-based media company (‘‘US IP Owner’’) that is active in the youth market segment. The partnership was officially launched in mid-2021 with its operation set up in Mainland China, launching a brand-integrated content production entertainment business in Mainland China, targeting to bridge the Chinese and US brands. This business has shown promising potential and the Group is seeing satisfactory developments in commercialisation based on the viewership and engagements to the content it produced. The business has since been expanding rapidly, earning over 500,000 combined social following with a strong pipeline of business opportunities, and projecting to contribute a substantial contribution to the Group’s overall revenue by the end of the financial year 2022. As this business

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

develops, the Group is also seeking to establish and increase its local presence in the United States, to cultivate industry relationships and capture growth opportunities in content production and beyond.

Among others expansion plans:

  • (i) the Group has identified an opportunity for high quality youth culture Chinese brands to promote and expand in the North American market, especially in the United States. With the Group’s exclusive partnership with the US IP Owner, the Group (a) facilitated the Chinese brand’s presence and promotion plan with digital media placement at the largest youth culture festival in the United States; (b) produced a series of social content featuring the Chinese brand’s presence and other youth brands activation at the event in collaboration with China’s leading social media platform, which drew immense traffic and established the Group’s initial ‘fanbase’ on the platform; (c) to commercialise on the fanbase which is now one of the top in the category with more valuable brand integrated content deals; (d) intends to introduce three prominent Chinese brands to the 2022 edition of the festival to amplify their brand stories and distribute to the wider US market as well as building an international positioning which is appealing in the domestic Mainland Chinese market; (e) beyond 2022, intends to expand this program, as more Chinese youth culture brands are expected to have developed global distribution and would have increasing needs for professional services regarding US market entry, brand, marketing and content production;

  • (ii) the Group plans to host the first annual youth culture festival in Mainland China in collaboration with the US IP Owner in 2023. The festival will feature over 100 activations by brands and 25% of which will be international brands showcasing unique collaboration for the Chinese consumers. The Group will be actively soliciting participation in the US market and will set up ancillary services for these brands and artists, including intellectual properties licensing for collaboration, design and production and most importantly, content production for amplifying the brand stories at the event for conversion. The Group plans to put together a task force comprising of US-based consultants, its collaboration partner’s executives in experiential and collaboration together with a dedicated team from the Group’s Mainland China office. The program is expected to generate promising sponsorship value plus ticketing sales and merchandise sales of in the first year; and

  • (iii) riding its successful collaboration experience with the US IP Owner, the Group is currently actively looking at other similar opportunities of partnerships in adjacent businesses with synergistic value that can further strengthen the Group’s unique offering of content production for brand integration and commercialisation that bridge the cultures and markets of the two largest consumer markets in the world, China and United States. The Group is in initial talks with companies and experts in the industry to assess the opportunities, covering pop culture categories such as sports, fashion, music, gaming and Web 3. The Group targets to add another collaboration with another US-based media

– 7 –

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

content company to its portfolio within the next 24 months with a potential business scale similar to the current partnership, further solidifying the Group’s position as a platform for global intellectual properties tapping into the Chinese markets.

As the Group intends to expand and develop its brand-integrated content production media business, many of the Group’s content licensors, content producers and potential customers are based in Los Angeles, the United States. The Group intends to use the Property as staff accommodation for employees of the Group travelling to Los Angeles for business, home office, client and business associates entertainment or other casual gathering place after Completion. The Directors consider that such use of the Property that is not for profit generating purposes, but merely to provide a venue akin to a ‘‘work-from-home arrangement’’ for employees who are on business trips to stay and work, and to host drink parties and other casual gatherings with business, client and business associates, is in line with its planned residential use as stated in the valuation report.

The Directors consider the Acquisition to be beneficial to the Group as it can provide a working space and accommodation of employees for the Group who travel to Los Angeles for business meetings. The Property can also be used as social and other business show case venue to meet potential business partners and customers to cater for the Group’s future growth and development.

Taking into account the above factors, the Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors), consider that the terms of the Acquisition (including the Consideration) are on normal commercial terms and fair and reasonable, and the Acquisition is in the interests of the Shareholders and the Group as a whole.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF THE ACQUISITION ON THE GROUP

It is expected that upon Completion, there will be no change in total assets as the Acquisition will result in an increase in property, plant and equipment of approximately HK$36.0 million (representing the sum of the Consideration and the stamp duty and legal and professional costs incurred for the Acquisition) which will be netted-off by a decrease in bank balances and cash of approximately HK$36.0 million. The Group expects the Acquisition will increase the annual depreciation charges by approximately HK$1.2 million.

IMPLICATION UNDER THE GEM LISTING RULES

As one or more of the applicable percentage ratios (as defined under the GEM Listing Rules) in respect of the Acquisition exceeds 25% but is less than 100%, the Acquisition constitutes a major transaction for the Company under Chapter 19 of the GEM Listing Rules and is therefore subject to the reporting, announcement, circular and Shareholders’ approval requirements under Chapter 19 of the GEM Listing Rules.

To the best of the knowledge, information and belief of the Directors, having made all reasonable enquiries, no Shareholder or any of its associates has any material interest in the Acquisition. As such, no Shareholder would be required to abstain from voting if an extraordinary general meeting were convened to approve the Acquisition.

Pursuant to Rule 19.44 of the GEM Listing Rules, a written shareholder’s approval may be accepted in lieu of holding a general meeting. As at 10 June 2022 and the Latest Practicable Date, a closely allied group of shareholders who together hold approximately 65.01% of the issued share capital of the Company, namely, (i) Explorer Vantage, which is wholly owned by Ms. Bonnie Chan Woo, the chairperson of the Board, an executive Director and the chief executive officer of the Company, is beneficially interested in 277,200,000 Shares, representing approximately 57.75% of the issued share capital of the Company; and (ii) Mirousky, which is indirectly beneficially owned by Ms. Bonnie Chan Woo and her spouse, Mr. Darrin Woo as to 50% each, is beneficially interested in 34,850,000 Shares, representing approximately 7.26% of the issued share capital of the Company, have given written approvals to the Acquisition. Accordingly, the Company is not required to convene an extraordinary general meeting for approving the Acquisition.

RECOMMENDATION

Although no general meeting will be convened for approving the Acquisition, the Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) consider that the terms of the Acquisition are on normal commercial terms and are fair and reasonable, and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, if a general meeting were convened for approving the Acquisition, the Directors (including the independent non-executive Directors) would have recommended the Shareholders to vote in favour of the Acquisition.

PROPERTY VALUATION REPORT

APPENDIX II

Key assumptions

Our key assumptions of the valuation of property are:

Use Market Unit Rate (USD per sq ft) Single family home 942

In undertaking our valuation, we have made reference to sales evidence within the same and neighbouring districts in the range of US$745 per sq ft to US$1,291 per sq ft. Due adjustments to the unit rates of these sales evidence have been considered to reflect factors including but not limited to time, location, view and size in arriving at the assumed market unit rate. The above market unit rate assumed by us is consistent with the relevant sale comparables after due adjustments.

Market Volatility

Other Disclosure

  • Intended Use and User of Report

  • The recent outbreak of the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) has brought high volatility to global financial markets and uncertainty to the property market. It is expected that property values will be very sensitive to development of the pandemic and changes in the financial markets. The extents of impact on different sectors of the market are different and the time for marketing and negotiating sale of a property will be longer than normal. There will be less certainty as to how long a valuation may sustain and property prices may fluctuate rapidly and materially over a short period of time. Our valuation of the Property is valid only at the Valuation Date and any subsequent changes in market conditions as well as the resulting impacts on property values after the Valuation Date cannot be taken into account. If any party intends to make reference to our valuation when entering into any transaction, he must bear in mind the high market volatility during this period of time and that property values may or may not have changed since the Valuation Date.

We hereby confirm that Cushman & Wakefield Limited and the valuers conducting the valuation have no pecuniary or other interests that could conflict with the proper valuation of the property or could reasonably be regarded as being capable of affecting our ability to give an unbiased opinion. We confirm that we are an independent qualified valuer, as referred to Rule 8.31 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on GEM.

  • This valuation report is issued for the use of the Company’s regulatory circular reference in relation to a potential acquisition of the property only.
