香港聯合交易所有限公司(「聯交所」)GEM 特色

GEM 的地位,乃為相比起其他在聯交所上市的公司可能帶有較高投資風險的中小型公司提供一個上 市的市場。有意投資的人士應了解投資於該等公司的潛在風險,並應經過審慎周詳的考慮後方作出 投資決定。

由於 GEM 上市公司一般為中小型公司,在 GEM 買賣的證券可能會較於主板買賣之證券承受較大的市 場波動風險,同時無法保證在 GEM 買賣的證券會有高流通量的市場。

本報告的資料乃遵照《聯交所GEM證券上市規則》(「 GEM上市規則 」)而刊載,旨在提供有關萬星控股 有限公司(「 本公司 」)的資料;本公司的董事(「 董事 」)願就本報告的資料共同及個別地承擔全部責任。 各董事在作出一切合理查詢後,確認就其所知及所信,本報告所載資料在各重要方面均屬準確完備, 沒有誤導或欺詐成分,且並無遺漏任何其他事項,足以令致本報告所載任何陳述或本報告產生誤導。

Note:

附註:

Statutory reserve

Pursuant to the relevant laws and regulations for business enterprises in the People’s Republic of China (the “ PRC ”), a portion of the profits of the entities which are registered in the PRC has been transferred to the statutory reserve which is restricted as to use. When the balance of such reserve reaches 50% of the capital of that entity, any further appropriation is optional. The statutory reserve can be utilised, upon approval of the relevant authority, to offset prior years’ losses or to increase capital. However, the balance of the statutory reserve must be maintained at a minimum 25% of capital after such usage.

法定儲備

根據中華人民共和國(「 中國 」)的相關商業企業法律及 法規,於中國註冊之實體之部分溢利已轉撥至有限定 用途之法定儲備。當該等儲備結餘達該實體資本之 50% 時,可選擇是否作出任何進一步劃撥。法定儲備 在獲得相關部門批准後方可動用,以抵銷過往年度之 虧損或增資。然而,運用法定儲備後之結餘最低須維 持在資本之 25%。

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 管理層討論及分析

PROFIT WARNING

Hit by the twists and turns of the COVID-19 pandemic in Mainland China and changes in digital asset policies, the Group’s revenue from overseas internet advertising fell significantly and no revenue was recorded from the digital assets business. Since the Group was still investing in the establishment of online and offline advertising channels in Mainland China and in the project involving the construction of multi-functional advertising equipment, no revenue was generated yet. It is expected that steady revenue will be generated starting from the third quarter.

盈利預警

受中國大陸新冠疫情反覆以及數字資產政 策變化的影響,本集團海外互聯網廣告業 務收入大幅下降及數字資產業務暫無錄得 收入。本集團中國大陸線上線下廣告渠道 的建設和多功能廣告設備的專案建設尚處 於投入期,尚未產生大量收入。預計三季 度開始會帶來可續性的穩定收入。

Mitigation Measures

Integrated with the digitalization empowered platform, the advertising & marketing system has generated stable operating income since November 2022 and a growing trend is observed. This business is fully operated by Junjing Business Management (Zhejiang) Co., Ltd. ( 雋景商業管理(浙江)有限公司 ) (“ Junjing Business ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Group. Junjing Business, together with Zhejiang Dongri Agricultural Development Co., Ltd. ( 浙江東日農業發展 有限公司 ), a subsidiary of Zhejiang Dongri Co., Ltd. ( 浙 江東日股份有限公司 ) (listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, stock code: 600113.SH), and the People’s Government of Jixian County, Shanxi Province jointly establish a project company, Shanxi Jimei Agricultural Holding (Group) Co., Ltd. ( 山西吉美農控(集團)有限公 司 ). The company is principally engaged in the build-up and operation of a platform for the digitallyempowered agricultural industry and in the provision of services for the advertising and sales of agricultural products for Jixian County, and is a demonstrative project of Junjing Business. It has successively set up advertising equipment with sales function in Hangzhou, Wenzhou and Quzhou, Zhejiang Province. In particular, “Million Stars Promotion Machine” will market other products such as snacks and beverages, in addition to fresh fruits and vegetables, and will be made available in more outlets for consumers’ convenience, with the aim of generating sustainable income for the Group.

應對措施

結合了數字化產業賦能平台的廣告營銷系 統自二零二二年十一月開始已產生穩定的 營業收入且呈快速發展趨勢,該業務由本 集團全資附屬公司雋景商業管理(浙江)有 限公司(「 雋景商業 」)全面開展。雋景商業 與浙江東日農業發展有限公司(浙江東日股 份有限公司 ( 在上海證券交易所上市,股票 代碼 600113.SH) 的子公司)、山西省吉縣 人民政府共同成立了項目公司山西吉美農 控(集團)有限公司。該公司主營業務為建 設與運營數字化賦能農產業的平台,專門 為吉縣農產品的廣告宣傳與銷售服務,是 雋景商業的示範項目。同時在浙江省杭州 市、溫州市、衢州市陸續投放帶產品銷售 功能的廣告設備。其中「萬星促銷機」除新 鮮蔬果外,亦會拓展至其他產品如零食和 飲料,並積極增加網點,便利消費者,目 標是為集團帶來可持續收入。
