REASONS FOR THE CHANGE IN USE OF PROCEEDS

As the global economic environment and the financial markets are recently affected by substantial adverse factors, the demand on securities and cryptocurrency are slowdown, the continued investment in the Investment business sector will increase investment risks. As such, the Company, acting on a prudence basis, will suspend the establishment in this sector and the Unutilised Net Proceeds of HK$8.88 million will be used as general working capital of the Company instead.

Having considered the impact of the proposed change in the use of the Unutilised Net Proceeds on the Group's business, the Board is of the view that the new re-allocation of the Unutilised Net Proceeds will meet the Group's business and operational needs at the moment in line with the Group's latest business development. The Board considers that the proposed change in the use of the Unutilised Net Proceeds will not have any material adverse effect on the existing business and operation of the Group and is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole.
