Management Discussion and Analysis
Business Review
(A) Continuing Operations
- Network Solutions and Project Services (“NS&PS”) During the Financial Period, NS&PS achieved total revenue of HK$18.1 million (2010: HK$14.1 million) with segment profit of HK$5.1 million (2010: HK$4.2 million). The main contributor to the increase in revenue was the selling of mobile TV transmitters. The increase in segment profit was primary based on the tight control of overall costs by the management team of NS&PS and increase in turnover.
Among the achieved revenue, approximately HK$12.6 million was generated from the sales of both telecom and enterprise networking solutions whilst the remaining was generated from the project and engineering service.
By the end of the Financial Period, the total project contract sum on hand was approximatel y HK$15 million.
01
During the Financial Period, the project services division focused on the trunk radio system installation for the Hong Kong Fire Services Department and one of the public utilities in Hong Kong by being one of their main sub-contractors. The solutions sales team kept focusing on the sales and promotion of the products that are distributed by the NS&PS. Albeit severe market competition, the business of telecom solutions remained stable but the business of enterprise solutions was still below expectation. However, there were positive signs indicating that the business of enterprise solution was picking up gradually.
Apart from the selling of the mobile TV transmitters during the Financial Period, NS&PS also promoted the wireless LAN and digital signage solutions to clients with diverse backgrounds such as educational and financial institutes. In addition to the enterprise solution sales, NS&PS also discussed with other system integrators and system vendors in order to be qualified as one of t heir contractors for the project service. By end of November 2011, NS&PS has been qualified by one of the system integrators and became its contractor. Equipped with this qualification, NS&PS assisted this system integrator to win an indoor installation project from her client. In return, an installation of indoor cellular radio communication antenna system for a hospital with project sum of approximately HK$4.9 million was awarded to us.
2. Property Investment
During the Financial Period, the lease of the office unit in Beijing was expired in December 2011. A new lease was signed with an independent third party with an approximately 54% increase in rental income when compared to the old lease. The villa in Beijing remained vacant.
(B) Discontinued operation
The Group discontinued its aircraft leasing business on 12 September 2011 after entered into a conditional sale and purchase agreement to dispose of the Group’s sole aircraft to an independent third party at a consideration of US$8.8 million (equivale nt to HK$68.8 million). The disposal was completed on 11 January 2012.

03
Business Outlook
By the end of the Financial Period, the business segment of NS&PS has a total amount of approximately HK$15 million projects sum on hand which are under work in progress. Among these projects, 40% is coming from the sales of the network solution and the remaining is coming from the project services.
However, the management foresees a slowdown of business due to the European debt crisis which affected globally. We noticed some of our clients are cuttin g their purchasing budgets or beginning to hold up some of the projects under discussion.
In order to alleviate this negative trend, we are actively seeking new business opportunities by leveraging on our strength in mobile wireless communication. We are now in discussion with several hotels to install wireless LAN system projects and also a cellular network performance monitoring system for one of the mobile operators in Hong Kong.
With the popularity of tablets and mobile phones with Wi-Fi connectivity, users start to aware the security issues relating to Wireless LAN network. Since we are the gold partner of Motorola, we are capable to deliver a wireless intrusion prevention solution. In the coming months, we are going to promote Motorola’s AirDefense system which can help those large organizations to protect their Wireless LAN network from being attack or hack by hackers.
With the introduction of the new Precision Time Protocol (“ PTP ”) IEEE1588 standard, this PTP will help the high frequency tra ders such as stock exchanges to have a more accurate time stamping on all the transactions. We have noticed a lot of financial institutes are looking for these solutions and systems. Being the distributor of Symmetricom (a market leader in providing the time servers equipped with this new PTP functionality) together with our expertise in this area, we are going to spend more effort to promote this solution to all the financial institutes in the next couple of months in order to arouse the awareness of the adoption of PTP.
For the mobile transmitters, we do not expect more business coming in the second half of this financial year. It is because the licensed mobile TV operator targets to roll out its mobile TV service in first quarter of this calendar year. It plans to expand the radio coverage along the Mass Transit Railway stations as well as other open areas uncovered at current moment until after the official launch date. According to its installation plan, we expect more sales opportunity of the mobile TV transmitters in next financial year.

After the Financial Period, the disposal of G200 aircraft was completed.

The Company has not identified any specific investment at the date of this report.
Appreciation
On behalf of the Board, I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to all our management and all colleagues for their valuable contribution to the Group. Moreover, I would also like to express appreciation to our valued shareholders, customers and business partners who have stood by the Group.

Purchase, Sale or Redemption of the Company’s Listed Securities
Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries purchased, sold or redeemed any of the Company’s listed securities during the six months ended 31 December 2011.
Corporate Governance
The Board recognises the importance of maintaining a high standard of corporate governance to protect and enhance the benefits of shareholders. A good corporate governance practice, in the Board’s view, can facilitate healthy growth of a company and strengthen the confidence of the shareholders and investors. The Company has applied the principles of the code provisions of the Code on Corporate Governance Practices contained in Appendix 14 (the “ CG Code ”) of the Rules Governing the Listing Securities on the Stock Exchange (the “ Listing Rules ”).
For the six months ended 31 December 2011, the Company has complied with the code provisions of the CG Code except the deviations as mentioned below:
- i. In accordance with the CG Code provision A.2.1 stipulates that the roles of chairman and chief executive officer (“ CEO ”) should be separated and should not be performed by the same individual.
Mr. Lo is the chairman of the Company (the “ Chairman ”) and has also carried out the responsibility of CEO. Mr. Lo possesses the essential leadership skills to manage the Board and extensive knowledge in the business of the Group. The Board considers the present structure is more suitable for the Company because it can promote the efficient formulation and implementation of the Company’s strategies.
- ii. Under the code provision A.4.1 of the CG Code, non-executive directors should be appointed for a specific term and subject to re-election.
None of the existing non-executive Directors is appointed for a specific term. This constitutes a deviation from code provision A.4.1 of the CG Code. However, they are subject to the retirement by rotation in accordance with the provisions of the Company’s articles of association. As such, the Company considers that sufficient measures have been taken to ensure that the Company’s corporate governance practices are no less exacting than those in the CG Code.
10
==> picture [88 x 87] intentionally omitted <==
- iii. The code provision E.1.2 of the CG Code stipulates that the chairman of the board should attend the annual general meeting (“ AGM ”).
The Chairman did not attend the 2011 AGM due to another business engagement. An executive Director had chaired the 2011 AGM and answered questions from shareholders. The AGM of the Company provided a channel for communication between the Board and the shareholders. The chairman of the audit and remuneration committees of the Company was also available to answer questions at the 2011 AGM. Other than the AGM, shareholders may also communicate with the Company through the contact information listed on the Company’s website.
Compliance with Model Code for Securities Transactions
The Company has adopted its own Code for Securities Transactions by Directors and Employees (the “ Code ”) who are likely to be in possession of unpublished price sensitive information of the Company on terms no less exacting than those set out in the Model Code.
In the period of 30 days immediately preceding and including the publication of the half year results or, if shorter, the period from the end of the relevant quarterly or half year period up to and including the publication date of the results, all Directors and relevant employees are restricted to deal in the securities and derivatives of the Company until such results have been published.
Upon specific enquiry by the Company, all Directors have confirmed that they have complied with the required standards set out in the Code during the six months ended 31 December 2011.
Human Resources
At 31 December 2011, the Group employed 20 full-time employees (at 30 June 2011: 19) in Hong Kong and Mainland China. Remuneration packages are structured to take into account the level and composition of pay and the general market conditions in the respective geographical locations and business in which the Group operates. The remuneration policies of the Group are reviewed on periodic basis. Apart from retirement schemes, year-end bonuses and share options are awarded to the employees according to the assessment of individual performance and industry practice. Appropriate training programs are also offered for staff training and development.

The adoption of these new and revised HKFRSs has no material impact on the results and financial positions of the Group. For those which are not yet effective and have not been early adopted in prior accounting periods, the Group is in the process of assessing their impact on the Group’s results and financial position.
3. Turnover and Segment Information
The Group’s reportable operating segments are (i) network solutions and project services and (ii) property investment.
The chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Executive Directors. The Executive Directors review the Group’s internal reports in order to assess performance and allocate resources. The Executive Directors determined the operating segments based on these reports. On 12 September 2011, the Group discontinued the business of aircraft leasing after entering into a conditional sale and purchase agreement on disposal of a G200 aircraft with an independent party. The disposal was completed on 11 January 2012 (Note 7).
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 noted 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.

8. (Loss)/Earnings Per Share (Continued)
Note:
From continuing and discontinued operations
The computation of 2011 and 2010 diluted loss per share from continuing and discontinued operations does not assume exercise of share options since the exercise would result in a decrease in loss per share.
From continuing operations
The computation of 2011 diluted loss per share from continuing operations is the same as basic loss per share presented as there was no diluting effect from the exercise of share options on the loss attributable to shareholders.
From discontinued operation
The computation of 2011 and 2010 diluted loss per share from discontinued operation does not assume exercise of share options since the exercise would result in a decrease in loss per share.
