3. REASONS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT

The Group is principally engaged in the manufacturing of apparel products including knit tops and woven bottoms for internationally renowned brand names. The Factory is intended to be used by the Group for manufacturing knit tops with the aim of enhancing the Group’s overall production capacities in order to meet increasing orders from its customers. In anticipation of business expansion and the need for enhancing overall production capacity, the Directors consider the Construction Contract which will give the Group the benefits from economies of scale and greater flexibility in tackling customers’ increasing orders upon the completion of the Construction to be in the interests of the Group and the Shareholders as a whole. The Directors believe that the terms of the Construction Contract are fair and reasonable.

The Contract Price will be funded by internal resources of the Group. The Directors are of the view that the amount of consideration paid for the Construction will become capitalised as fixed assets of the Group. With the increase production capacity to capture more customers’ orders and the benefit from the economies of scale, the Construction Contract is expected to produce a positive effect on the Group’s business and operation. The Directors consider there is no material impact of the Construction Contract on the Group’s financial position.
