The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Placing (after deducting the commission payable to the Placing Agent, professional fees and other related costs and expenses incurred in the Placing) of approximately HK$35.2 million for (i) general working capital including but not limited to rental and salary expenses as to approximately HK$20.2 million; and (ii) potential investments when opportunities arise as to approximately HK$15.0 million.
