PROFIT WARNING

This announcement is made pursuant to Rule 13.09(2) of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “ Listing Rules ”) and the Inside Information Provisions (as defined under the Listing Rules) under Part XIVA of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571 of the Laws of Hong Kong).

The board of directors (the “ Board ”) of Tradelink Electronic Commerce Limited (the “ Company ”, together with its subsidiaries, the “ Group ”) wishes to inform shareholders of the Company and potential investors that based on a preliminary review of the Group’s unaudited consolidated management accounts for the four months ended 30 April 2022 and the information currently available, the Group is expected to record a very significant decrease in profit attributable to shareholders of the Company for the six months ending 30 June 2022 as compared to the profit attributable to the shareholders of the Company for the corresponding period in 2021. The primary reason for the decrease is the fair value loss on other financial assets at fair value through profit or loss recorded up to the four months ended 30 April 2022 which was HK$20.3 million as compared to the loss of HK$1.5 million for the six months ended 30 June 2021. The other financial assets included listed debt and equity securities, and units in investment funds. The fair value loss in the other financial assets was due to the adverse investment environment arising from macro global issues, which include expected drastic increase in interest rate in the US, the Russian-Ukraine war and resulting geopolitical stress. With the volatility in the financial market, the fair value of such financial assets may fluctuate in the remaining period leading to the six months ending 30 June 2022. The Company is currently ascertaining the effect of the above-mentioned factors and options to deal with such financial assets.

Despite the above information, the Board believes that the overall financial, operational and business positions (including cashflow) of the Group remain healthy.
