Stella International Holdings Limited provided earnings guidance for the six months ended 30 June 2020. While a net profit was recorded for the six months ended 30 June 2019 (in the amount of approximately USD 38.9 million), the Group expects to record a net loss for the six months ended 30 June 2020. The net loss is expected to be within the range of USD 5.0 million to USD 10.0 million and estimated primarily based on the information currently available to the Board, including the management accounts of the members of the Group; and in relation to certain other members of the Group, the general preliminary information known to the Board about their financial performances during the six months ended 30 June 2020, as such Group companies have experienced delays in preparation of their accounts as a result of, among others, the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and are still in the process of finalising their accounts in compliance with the applicable regulatory requirements.
