NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PREPARATION
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (‘‘HKFRS’’) issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the ‘‘HKICPA’’). The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of investment properties at fair value.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
The presentation of the consolidated income statement for the year ended 30 June 2010 has been changed, the change in presentation is primarily as a result of acquisition of aircraft leasing business. In prior years, expenses were classified and presented in the consolidated income statement based on their function within the Group. In the current year, expenses were classified and presented in the consolidated income statement according to their nature. Management considers to present the nature of expenses in the consolidated income statement can provide more relevant financial information to users about business performance and operations of the Group after the acquisition of Glory Key Investments Ltd. during the year ended 30 June 2010. As a result, the consolidated income statement for the year ended 30 June 2009 has been re-presented to conform to the current year’s presentation. Since the change only impacts presentation aspects, there is no impact on the statement of finance position. As such, three statements of financial position are not presented.
The Group has adopted the following new/revised amendments and interpretations to existing standards (‘‘new HKFRSs’’) issued by the HKICPA which are effective or have become effective and relevant to the Group’s operations for the Group’s financial year beginning on 1 July 2009.
-
HKAS 1 (Revised), ‘‘Presentation of financial statements’’. Details of changes in equity during the period arising from transactions with equity shareholders in their capacity as such have been presented separately from all other income and expenses in the consolidated statement of changes in equity. All other items of income and expense are presented in the consolidated income statement, if they are recognised as part of profit or loss for the period, or otherwise in a new primary statement, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Corresponding amounts have been re-presented to conform to the new presentation. Since the change in accounting policy only impacts presentation aspects, there is no impact on total equity and loss per share.
-
HKFRS 8, ‘‘Operating segments’’. HKFRS 8 replaces HKAS 14, ‘‘Segment reporting’’. It requires a ‘‘management approach’’ under which segment information is presented on the same basis as that used for internal reporting purposes. Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker, who makes strategic decisions.
In prior years, two operating segments were presented, which were network solution and project services and property investment. In the current year upon the adoption of HKFRS 8 and after the completion of acquisition of aircraft leasing business in March 2010, an additional segment, aircraft leasing, is presented. Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker has been identified as the executive directors of the Company who make strategic decisions.
– 6 –
-
Amendment to HKFRS 7, ‘‘Financial instruments: disclosures’’. The amendment increases the disclosure requirements about fair value measurement and amends the disclosure about liquidity risk. The amendment introduces a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurement disclosures about financial instruments and requires some specific quantitative disclosures for those instruments classified in the lowest level in the hierarchy. These disclosures will help to improve comparability between entities about the effects of fair value measurements. In addition, the amendment clarifies and enhances the existing requirements for the disclosure of liquidity risk primarily requiring a separate liquidity risk analysis for derivative and non-derivative financial liabilities. It also requires a maturity analysis for financial assets where the information is needed to understand the nature and context of liquidity risk. As the change in the accounting policy only results in additional disclosures, there is no impact on total equity and loss per share.
-
Amendments to HKAS 27 (Revised), ‘‘Consolidated and separate financial statements’’. The amendments to HKAS 27 have removed the requirement that dividends out of pre-acquisition profits should be recognised as a reduction in the carrying amount of the investment in the investee, rather than as income. As a result, as from 1 July 2009, all dividends receivable from subsidiaries, whether out of pre- or post-acquisition profits, will be recognised in the Company’s profit or loss and the carrying amount of the investment in the investee will not be reduced unless that carrying amount is assessed to be impaired as a result of the investee declaring the dividend. In such cases, in addition to recognising dividend income in profit or loss, the Company would recognise an impairment loss. In accordance with the transitional provisions in the amendment, this new policy will be applied prospectively to any dividends receivable in the current or future periods. Financial statements of previous periods have not been restated.
As a result of the amendments to HKAS 27 (Revised), the acquisitions of non-controlling interests are accounted for as transactions with equity holders in their capacity as equity holders and therefore no goodwill is recognised as a result of such transactions. Previously, goodwill arising on the acquisition of a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary was recognised, and represented the excess of the cost of the additional investment over the carrying amount of the interest in the net assets acquired at the date of exchange. The change in accounting policy was applied prospectively.
-
HKFRS 2 (amendment), ‘‘Share-based payment’’ deals with vesting conditions and cancellations. It clarifies that vesting conditions are service conditions and performance conditions only. Other features of a share-based payment are not vesting conditions. These features would need to be included in the grant date fair value for transactions with employees and others providing similar services; they would not impact the number of awards expected to vest or valuation thereof subsequent to grant date. All cancellations, whether by the entity or by other parties, should receive the same accounting treatment. The Group and the Company has adopted HKFRS 2 (amendment) from July 2009. The amendment does not have a material impact on the Group’s or the Company’s financial statements.
-
Amendments to HKFRS 3 (Revised), ‘‘Business combinations’’. Business combinations are accounted for by using the acquisition method as at the acquisition date, which is the date on which control is transferred to the Group. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, the Group takes into consideration potential voting rights that currently are exercisable.
For acquisitions on or after 1 July 2009, the Group measures goodwill as the fair value of the consideration transferred including the recognised amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, less the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, all measured as of the acquisition date. When the excess is negative, it is recognised immediately in the income statement.
– 7 –
The Group elects on a transaction-by-transaction basis whether to measure non-controlling interest at its fair value, or at its proportionate share of the recognised amount of the identifiable net assets, at the acquisition date.
Transaction costs, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, that the Group incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred.
The Group has not early adopted the following new and revised standards, amendments or interpretations to existing standards that have been issued but are not yet effective:
| HKFRSs (Amendments) | Improvements to HKFRSs 20091 |
|---|---|
| HKFRSs (Amendments) | Improvements to HKFRSs 20102 |

| HKFRS 9 | Financial Instruments5 |
| HK(IFRIC)-Int 14 (Amendment) | Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement3 |
| HK(IFRIC)-Int 19 | Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments6 |
-
1 Amendments that are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2010
-
2 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2010 and 1 January 2011, as appropriate
-
3 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011

4 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 February 2010
-
5 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013
-
6 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2010
The Group has already commenced an assessment of the impact of the above new/revised standards, amendments and interpretations but is not yet in a position to state whether the new/revised standards, amendments and interpretations would have a significant impact to its results of operations and financial position.
3. REVENUE AND SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Group has adopted HKFRS 8 ‘‘Operating Segments’’ with effect from 1 July 2009. The chief operating decision maker has been identified as the executive directors. The executive directors review the Group’s internal reporting in order to assess performance and allocate resources. The executive directors determined the operating segments based on these reports. In March 2010, the Group commenced the business of aircraft leasing after the acquisition of the entire equity interest in a subsidiary. The acquisition was completed on 1 March 2010.
The reportable operating segments are (i) network solutions and project services; (ii) aircraft leasing and (iii) property investment.
In prior years, segment information reported externally was analysed on three operating divisions (i.e. network solutions, project services and property investment) under the predecessor standard (HKAS 14, Segment Reporting). The Group was also involved in technology related services but the business was discontinued in prior year. However, information reported to the executive directors for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of performance focuses on (i) network solutions and project services; (ii) aircraft leasing and (iii) property investment segments following the adoption of HKFRS 8 ‘‘Operating Segments’’.
– 8 –
The executive directors assess the performance of operating segments based on a measure of segment results. This measurement basis is revenue less direct attributable expenses to revenue but excluding depreciation. Other information provided, except as described below, to the directors is measured in a manner consistent with that in the financial statements.
Segment assets exclude other assets that are managed on a central basis.
There are no sales or other transactions between business segments.

10. LOAN NOTE PAYABLE
On 1 March 2010, the Group completed an acquisition of the entire equity interest in a subsidiary. The consideration of this acquisition is satisfied as to HK$50 million in cash, subject to adjustment, and as to the remaining balance of HK$46 million through the issuance of a loan note (the ‘‘Loan Note’’).
The Loan Note was issued on 1 March 2010 with a principal amount of HK$46,000,000, which was unsecured, interest bearing at 4% per annum and had a 2-year maturity period from the issue date. However, it can be repaid from time to time before maturity at the discretion of the Company at the principal amount of HK$46,000,000 and accrued interest up to the redemption date. Interest on the Loan Note was payable on the maturity on 28 February 2012 or upon repayment, whichever is earlier.
The Loan Note was fair valued at initial recognition by an independent valuer with an effective interest rate of 8.46% per annum. The fair value of the Loan Note based on the valuation was HK$42,234,000.
As a result of the placement of 23,490,000 ordinary shares on 22 April 2010 with net proceeds received of approximately HK$76.6 million, the Company early redeemed the Loan Note on 27 April 2010 at a total amount of HK$46,287,000 for better cash flow management. A loss on early redemption of the Loan Note of approximately HK$3,495,000 was charged to the consolidated income statement for the year ended 30 June 2010. As a result, the Group has no loan note payable as at 30 June 2010.

REVIEW OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Audit Committee of the Company has reviewed the annual results of the Group for the year ended 30 June 2010. The figures in respect of the preliminary announcement of the Group’s results for the year ended 30 June 2010 have been agreed by the Group’s independent auditor, PricewaterhouseCoopers, to the amounts set out in the Group’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year. The work performed by PricewaterhouseCoopers in this respect did not constitute an assurance engagement in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing, Hong Kong Standards on Review Engagements or Hong Kong Standards on Assurance Engagements issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants and consequently no assurance has been expressed by PricewaterhouseCoopers on the preliminary announcement.
DIVIDEND
The Directors do not recommend the payment of a final dividend for the year ended 30 June 2010 (2009: Nil).
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Business Review
- Network solutions and project services (‘‘NSPS’’)
Following the improvement of overall economic environment, this business segment achieved a growth of 15.7% in revenue to HK$29.1 million (2009: HK$25.1 million).
Among the total revenue, around 60% was generated from the sales of both Telecom and Enterprise Networking solutions while the remaining balance was generated from project and engineering services.
NSPS is achieving success in the sales of Wireless Solutions on the unlicensed band microwave system as backhaul for mobile operators, public utilities and government agencies. Our outstanding achievement is leading to our subsidiary, Cyber On-Air (Asia) Limited (‘‘COA’’), being awarded by Motorola and promoted to become their Platinum Partner in Hong Kong. In addition, NSPS has also well positioned itself as a wireless solution/system provider. For the business of Enterprise market, it was still underperformed because of keen market competition.
For the business of Project Service, it was quite successful during the reporting year. Based on our expertise in wireless system installation and supporting services, COA was selected during the year by Nokia Siemens Networks as one of their contractors to replace, test and commission their 3G base stations for one of the mobile operators in Hong Kong.

Business Outlook
Looking forward to the new financial year for the NSPS business segment, we are cautiously optimistic that more customers are willing to increase their capital expenditure budgets due to the continuous improvement in economic environment. Therefore, we will concentrate our focus in improving our sales revenue with the Wireless Solutions for the Enterprise Market in addition to the existing Telecom Market segment. To achieve this target, we are going to introduce different wireless solutions to our potential customers including:
-
(1) Data Communication through wireless backhaul link;
-
(2) Video surveillance solution by point to multipoint wireless system;
-
(3) Digital signage solution by wireless, and
-
(4) Voice over WiFi with Push to Talk over Wireless LAN network.

In addition, we are also looking for other solutions and applications that are wireless related so that we can increase our solution portfolio to meet the needs of different customers.
To gain better market penetration and revenue income, we have designed both long term and short term approaches. For the long term approach, we will focus on system and solution sales which includes video surveillance, wireless backhaul etc. that may take a longer lead time to design and be concluded with our potential customers. For short term approach, we will promote the standalone digital signage solution as well as standalone wireless system such as Wi-Fi system that may take a much shorter time to conclude with potential customers when compared to system or solution sales. These standalone systems, once adopted, can be scaled and expanded in the future whenever required by customers.
We have already started the promotion of standalone digital signage system with some potential customers and hope that some projects will be concluded in the near future. Once the solution is successfully implemented, we can easily replicate the essential ingredients to other customers to generate more revenue in the enterprise segment.
For the Project Service, we have partnered with EADS Secure Networks Limited, another TETRA Radio System supplier in Hong Kong, to become one of their appointed partners for the installation of the TETRA Radio system. Some projects have already started and there will be new built stations in the coming months to be implemented by us.

None of the existing non-executive directors of the Company is appointed for a specific term. This constitutes a deviation from code provision A.4.1 of the Code.
