MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

BUSINESS REVIEW

The business landscape dramatically worsened during the period under review. For the six months ended 30 September 2019, the Group's consolidated turnover decreased by 24.36% to HK$492 million (2018: HK$650 million) due to the decrease of market demand for eyewear products as well as the significant reduction of revenue from the Group's contact lens business. The decline in consolidated turnover made the Group suffer from diseconomies of scale in operation. Moreover, the operating costs in China further increased during the period which led to additional cost pressure on the Group. As a result, the Group's profitability severely deteriorated, which brought about a mild loss attributable to the owners of the Company of approximately HK$9 million (2018: profit attributable to the owners of the Company - HK$45 million) and loss per share of HK3 cents (2018: earnings per share - HK17 cents).

The Group recorded a decrease of gross profit margin and net profit margin to 18.77% (2018: 21.66%) and -1.71%

(2018: 6.88%) respectively. Such decrease was caused by the continuously rising labor costs in Southern China, the intensified market competition in the industry and the fact that the Group could not immediately adjust its fixed costs in response to the sudden reduction in market demand. During the review period, the Group has carried out various projects through its cross-functional teams to enhance operating efficiency and reduce costs. It also reallocated some of its production processes out of Southern China with an aim to reduce labor costs and secure a relatively stable labor supply. Those measures helped the Group to obtain efficient gains, but those gains were not able to fully offset the negative impacts as caused by the rapidly deteriorating business environment.

THE ODM BUSINESS

For the six months ended 30 September 2019, the Group's turnover from original design manufacturing ("ODM") business decreased by 17.56% to HK$385 million (2018: HK$467 million). Such decrease was a result of various economic and political incidents. In the market of the United States, the market sentiment was adversely affected by the trade tension between the United States and China. In August 2019, the government of the United States announced to impose a tariff of 15% on Chinese eyewear products. Although such tariff only came to effect in September 2019, the underlying trade negotiation carried out substantially throughout the review period had a profound negative impact on consumers' attitude and made customers being prudent in order placement. As a result, the Group's ODM turnover to the United States decreased by 5.49% to HK$155 million (2018: HK$164 million). In the market of Europe, customers were also very prudent in order placement due to the sluggish retail sales in general within the region, as well as the deterioration in macroeconomic environment and business uncertainty as caused by the trade dispute between China and the United States as mentioned above and the Brexit issue of the United Kingdom. Also certain customers of the Group in the region consolidated their own brand portfolios, which affected their orders for the Group. As a result, the Group's ODM turnover to Europe decreased by 28.87% to HK$202 million (2018: HK$284 million). For the review period, turnover from the Group's ODM business represented 78% of the Group's consolidated turnover. In terms of geographical mix, Europe and Unites States continued to be the two largest markets for the Group's ODM business. They accounted for 52.47% and 40.26% of the Group's total ODM turnover respectively. In terms of product mix, the Group observed a steadily rising demand for plastic frames during the review period. The Group had swiftly adjusted its production facilities to respond to the changing market trend. Sales of metal frames, plastic frames and others accounted for 50%, 49% and 1% (2018: 51%, 48% and 1%) of the Group's ODM turnover respectively.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

THE BRANDED EYEWEAR DISTRIBUTION BUSINESS

For the six months ended 30 September 2019, the Group's turnover from its branded eyewear distribution business decreased by 6.80% to HK$96 million (2018: HK$103 million), which accounted for 20% of the Group's total consolidated turnover. Such decrease was mainly caused by the slowdown of market demand from China as the growth momentum of Chinese economy slowed down. Asia continued to be the largest market of the Group's eyewear distribution business and contributed 97.92% of the Group's total eyewear distribution turnover.

THE BRANDED CONTACT LENS BUSINESS

For the six months ended 30 September 2019, the Group's turnover from its branded contact lens business significantly decreased by 89.87% to HK$8 million (2018: HK$79 million). It was because the Group recorded a relatively high sales base in corresponding period last year as the distribution channels at that time needed a relative high level of initial inventories upon commencement of contact lens business by the Group. Besides, the Group's branded color contact lens are highly consumer discretionary and fashion oriented in nature. Their sales were very sensitive to the economic change and were negatively affected by worsening business environment and consumer sentiment during the period under review.

OTHER BUSINESSES

For the period under review, the Group received a licensing income of HK$1 million (2018: HK$1 million) from an external party in connection with the trademark of Jill Stuart. The Group also received a rental income of HK$1 million (2018: HK$1 million) from external parties for certain investment properties owned.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Group continued to maintain a strong liquidity and financial position. It recorded a net cash inflow of HK$24 million from operations during the period under review. As at 30 September 2019, the Group held a cash and bank balance of HK$324 million. It also had an outstanding bank borrowing of approximately HK$46 million, which is repayable by installments over a period of 20 years with a repayable on demand clause. The debt-to-equity ratio (expressed as a percentage of bank borrowings over equity attributable to owners of the Company) as at 30 September 2019 was 4.97%.

As at 30 September 2019, the net current assets and current ratio of the Group were approximately HK$433 million and 2.6:1 respectively. The total equity attributable to owners of the Company decreased to HK$916 million as at 30 September 2019 from HK$953 million as at 31 March 2019 after the payment of the final dividend for the preceding fiscal year. The Group carefully monitored its receivable and inventory. Accordingly, debtor turnover period and inventory turnover period were managed at a level of 89 days and 58 days respectively. The Directors are confident that the financial position of the Group will remain strong, and the Group has sufficient liquidity and financial resources to meet its present commitments and future business needs.

Interim Report 2019/20

04/05

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Despite the significant decline of the Group's profitability in the extremely challenging business environment, given the Group's strong liquidity and solid cash position, the Directors resolved to declare an interim special dividend of HK1.5 cents per share for the six months ended 30 September 2019. The Directors will continue to monitor the dividend policy closely to ensure that an optimal balance can be achieved between the retention of sufficient liquidity in the Group to prepare for the future development ahead and the distribution of earnings to the shareholders respectively.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE EXPOSURE

Most of the Group's transactions were conducted in the U.S. dollars, Hong Kong dollars and Renminbi. In addition, the majority of the Group's assets were also kept in these currencies. Other than the potential exposure to the gradual change of Renminbi, the Group's exposure to currency fluctuation was relatively limited. The Group closely monitors the foreign exchange exposure and uses foreign exchange forward contracts and/or other appropriate tools to control the exposure in connection with Renminbi.

HUMAN RESOURCES

The Group had a workforce of about 5,000 people as at 30 September 2019. The Group remunerates its employees based on their performance, years of service, work experience and the prevailing market situation. Bonuses and other incentive payments are granted on a discretionary basis based on individual performance, years of service and overall operating results of the Group. Other employee benefits include medical insurance scheme, mandatory provident fund scheme or other retirement benefit scheme, subsidised or free training programs and participation in the Company's share option scheme.

CHARGES ON GROUP'S ASSETS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Details of the charges on the Group's assets are set out in Note 11 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. As at 30 September 2019, there were no significant contingent liabilities other than those disclosed in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

CAPITAL COMMITMENTS

Details of the Group's capital commitments are set out in Note 13 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

PROSPECTS

The business environment is expected to be very challenging in the coming future. The tariff imposed by the government of the United States on Chinese eyewear products has just come to effect in September 2019. The Directors anticipate that the new tariff is likely to adversely and directly affect the sales orders involving shipments to the United States in the second half of current fiscal year. Businesses with the European customers will also be indirectly affected through dampened consumer sentiment and increased business uncertainty as a result. Customers from the United States are expected to become even more conscious on product pricing in view of the additional tariff costs. In addition, the Group foresees that the economy of Asia may further slowdown. This may hinder the development of the Group's eyewear distribution business in Asia, which is now an important driver for the Group's sales growth.

In order to prepare ahead for the challenging business landscape and improve the Group's profitability, the Group will further streamline its operation to enhance efficiency. In the meantime, the Group will strengthen its order analysis function and technical study in the pre-production stage so to effectively differentiate sales orders in a way which allows the Group to adopt the most cost-effective production approach to handle the orders. The Group will enhance its control over costs and expenditure by implementing a prudent budget and looking for alternative material sourcing. In addition, the Group will speed up its plan to diversify production facilities outside of Southern China in order to secure a stable labour supply at reasonable costs. The Directors observe that the labor costs in Southern China continue to rise and the labor supply there is volatile. In order to address those problems, the Group has established a new production site under initial run in Henan province of China during the review period to handle certain labour intensive production works. In the meantime, the Group will execute plan to set up a facility in Vietnam with an aim to reduce reliance on its production facilities in China under the current tense relation between the United States and China. Despite the prudent control on expenditure, the Group will continue to invest in assets that will enhance automation and increase the Group's long-term competitiveness.

For the branded eyewear distribution business, the Group will further strengthen its product design function to develop unique features that enhance customers' experience on products. Meanwhile, new distribution channels and platforms will be explored to let the Group's products being able to reach new potential customers inaccessible to the traditional distribution networks. The Group will continue to refresh its portfolio to phase out non-performing brands and introduce new brands with high potential. Taking this opportunity, the Directors are pleased to announce that the Group has obtained exclusive right in China for distributing eyewear products bearing the reputable brand of "Kenzo". The first collection of the Kenzo eyewear will be introduced to the market in the second half of current fiscal year. The Directors believe that it will help to strengthen the Group's brand portfolio and contribute to the Group with a new source of income.

Interim Report 2019/20

06/07

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The Directors believe that the performance of its contact lens business will continue to be highly volatile due to its highly fashion oriented and consumer discretionary nature. The Group will closely monitor the performance of the contact lens business and will take necessary measures to ensure the healthy development of this new business.

The current business environment is extremely challenging and the Group expects that such an unfavorable situation will persist until the global economy resumes its growth momentum after the several existing political and economical issues such as the trade dispute are resolved. To weather this difficult environment, the Group will carefully execute the measures as mentioned above. In the meantime, we will retain sufficient financial resources to prepare for any uncertainty ahead and to grasp the business opportunities that may emerge. Levering on our vision and financial strength, despite the short-term pressure on profitability, we are confident that we can continue to create long-term value for our shareholders and deliver the objective to achieve sustainable growth in the long run.

REPORT ON REVIEW OF CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF SUN HING VISION GROUP HOLDINGS LIMITED

新興光學集團控股有限公司

(incorporated in Bermuda with limited liability)

INTRODUCTION

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated financial statements of Sun Hing Vision Group Holdings Limited (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the "Group") set out on pages 12 to 41, which comprise the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of 30 September 2019 and the related condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the six-month period then ended, and certain explanatory notes. The Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited require the preparation of a report on interim financial information to be in compliance with the relevant provisions thereof and Hong Kong Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" ("HKAS 34") issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with HKAS 34. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed consolidated financial statements based on our review, and to report our conclusion solely to you, as a body, in accordance with our agreed terms of engagement, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report.

SCOPE OF REVIEW

We conducted our review in accordance with Hong Kong Standard on Review Engagements 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of these condensed consolidated financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

for the six months ended 30 September 2019

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements of Sun Hing Vision Group Holdings Limited (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the "Group") have been prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Accounting Standard ("HKAS") 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the "HKICPA") as well as the applicable disclosure requirements of Appendix 16 to the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Listing Rules").

2. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments, which are measured at fair values.

Other than changes in accounting policies resulting from application of new and amendments to Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards ("HKFRSs"), the accounting policies and methods of computation used in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 September 2019 are the same as those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2019.

APPLICATION OF NEW AND AMENDMENTS TO HKFRSs

In the current interim period, the Group has applied, for the first time, the following new and amendments to HKFRSs issued by the HKICPA which are mandatory effective for the annual period beginning on or after 1 April 2019 for the preparation of the Group's condensed consolidated financial statements:

HKFRS 16 HK(IFRIC) - Int 23 Amendments to HKFRS 9 Amendments to HKAS 19 Amendments to HKAS 28 Amendments to HKFRSs

Leases

Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement Long-term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures Annual Improvements to HKFRSs 2015-2017 Cycle

Except as described below, the application of the new and amendments to HKFRSs in the current period has had no material impact on the Group's financial position and performance for the current and prior periods and/or on the disclosures set out in these condensed consolidated financial statements.

2. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

APPLICATION OF NEW AND AMENDMENTS TO HKFRSs (CONTINUED)

2.1 IMPACTS AND CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES OF APPLICATION OF HKFRS 16 "LEASES" The Group has applied HKFRS 16 for the first time in the current interim period. HKFRS 16 superseded HKAS 17 "Leases" ("HKAS 17"), and the related interpretations.

2.1.1 Key changes in accounting policies resulting from application of HKFRS 16

The Group applied the following accounting policies in accordance with the transition provisions of HKFRS 16.

Definition of a lease

A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

For contracts entered into or modified on or after the date of initial application, the Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease based on the definition under HKFRS 16 at the inception or modification date. Such contract will not be reassessed unless the terms and conditions of the contract are subsequently changed.

As a lessee

Allocation of consideration to components of a contract

For a contract that contains a lease component and one or more additional lease or non-lease components, the Group allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of the relative stand-alone price of the lease component and the aggregate stand- alone price of the non-lease components.

Non-lease components are separated from lease component on the basis of their relative stand-alone prices.

Short-term leases and leases of low value assets

The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to certain leases of properties, motor vehicles and machinery and equipment that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option. It also applies the recognition exemption for lease of low-value assets. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised as expense on a straight line basis over the lease term.

2.1.1 Key changes in accounting policies resulting from application of HKFRS 16 (Continued) As a lessee (Continued)

Right-of-use assets

Except for short-term leases and leases of low value assets, the Group recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e. the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities.

The cost of right-of-use assets includes:

  • the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability;
  • any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received;
  • any initial direct costs incurred by the Group; and
  • an estimate of costs to be incurred by the Group in dismantling and removing the underlying assets, restoring the site on which they are located or restoring the underlying assets to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease.

Right-of-use assets in which the Group is reasonably certain to obtain ownership of the underlying leased assets at the end of the lease term are depreciated from commencement date to the end of the useful lives. Otherwise, right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight- line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful life and the lease term.

The Group presents right-of-use assets as a separate line item in the condensed consolidated statement of financial position.

Leasehold land and buildings

For payments of a property interest which includes both leasehold land and building elements, the entire property is presented as property, plant and equipment of the Group when the payments cannot be allocated reliably between the leasehold land and building elements.

2.1.1 Key changes in accounting policies resulting from application of HKFRS 16 (Continued) As a lessee (Continued)

Refundable rental deposits

Refundable rental deposits paid are accounted for under HKFRS 9 "Financial Instruments" ("HKFRS 9") and initially measured at fair value. Adjustments to fair value at initial recognition are considered as additional lease payments and included in the cost of right-of-use assets.

Lease liabilities

At the commencement date of a lease, the Group recognises and measures the lease liability at the present value of lease payments that are unpaid at that date. In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable.

The lease payments include:

  • fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivables;
  • variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate;
  • amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees;
  • the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group; and
  • payments of penalties for terminating a lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate.

Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are not included in the measurement of lease liabilities and right-of-use assets, and are recognised as expense in the period on which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.

After the commencement date, lease liabilities are adjusted by interest accretion and lease payments.

2.1.1 Key changes in accounting policies resulting from application of HKFRS 16 (Continued) As a lessee (Continued)

Lease liabilities (Continued)

The Group remeasures lease liabilities (and makes a corresponding adjustment to the related right-of-use assets) whenever the lease term has changed or there is a change in the assessment of exercise of a purchase option, in which case the related lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate at the date of reassessment.

Lease modifications

The Group accounts for a lease modification as a separate lease if:

  • the modification increases the scope of the lease by adding the right to use one or more underlying assets; and
  • the consideration for the lease increases by an amount commensurate with the stand- alone price for the increase in scope and any appropriate adjustments to that stand- alone price to reflect the circumstances of the particular contract.

For a lease modification that is not accounted for as a separate lease, the Group remeasures the lease liability based on the lease term of the modified lease by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate at the effective date of the modification.

Taxation

For the purposes of measuring deferred tax for leasing transactions in which the Group recognises the right-of-use assets and the related lease liabilities, the Group first determines whether the tax deductions are attributable to the right-of-use assets or the lease liabilities.

For leasing transactions in which the tax deductions are attributable to the lease liabilities, the Group applies HKAS 12 "Income Taxes" requirements to right-of-use assets and lease liabilities separately. Temporary differences relating to right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are not recognised at initial recognition and over the lease terms due to application of the initial recognition exemption.

  1. Key changes in accounting policies resulting from application of HKFRS 16 (Continued) As a lessor
    Allocation of consideration to components of a contract
    Effective on 1 April 2019, the Group applies HKFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("HKFRS 15") to allocate consideration in a contract to lease and non-lease components. Non-lease components are separated from lease component on the basis of their relative stand-alone selling prices.
    Refundable rental deposits
    Refundable rental deposits received are accounted under HKFRS 9 and initially measured at fair value. Adjustments to fair value at initial recognition are considered as additional lease payments from lessees.
  2. Transition and summary of effects arising from initial application of HKFRS 16 Definition of a lease
    The Group has elected the practical expedient to apply HKFRS 16 to contracts that were previously identified as leases applying HKAS 17 and HK(IFRIC) - Int 4 "Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease" and not apply these standards to contracts that were not previously identified as containing a lease. Therefore, the Group has not reassessed contracts which already existed prior to the date of initial application.
    For contracts entered into or modified on or after 1 April 2019, the Group applies the definition of a lease in accordance with the requirements set out in HKFRS 16 in assessing whether a contract contains a lease.
    As a lessee
    The Group has applied HKFRS 16 retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognised at the date of initial application, 1 April 2019. Any difference at the date of initial application is recognised in the opening retained profits and comparative information has not been restated.

2.1.2 Transition and summary of effects arising from initial application of HKFRS 16 (Continued) As a lessee (Continued)

When applying the modified retrospective approach under HKFRS 16 at transition, the Group has applied the following practical expedients to leases previously classified as operating leases under HKAS 17, on a lease-by-lease basis, to the extent relevant to the respective lease contracts:

  1. relied on the assessment of whether leases are onerous by applying HKAS 37 "Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets" as an alternative of impairment review;
  2. excluded initial direct costs for measurement of the right-of-use assets at the date of initial application;
  3. the use of hindsight based on facts and circumstances as at date of initial application in determining the lease term for the Company's leases with extension and termination options; and
  4. applied a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with a similar remaining terms for similar class of underlying assets in similar economic environment.

On transition, the Group has made the following adjustments upon application of HKFRS 16:

As at 1 April 2019, the Group recognised additional lease liabilities and right-of-use assets at amounts equal to the related lease liabilities adjusted by any prepaid lease payment by applying HKFRS 16.C8(b)(ii). The Group has recognised lease liabilities of HK$42,818,000 and right-of-use assets of HK$46,189,000 at 1 April 2019.

When recognising the lease liabilities for leases previously classified as operating leases, the Group has applied the incremental borrowing rates of the relevant group entities at the date of initial application. The weighted average incremental borrowing rate applied was 4.31% per annum.

In accordance with the transitional provisions in HKFRS 16, the Group is not required to make any adjustment on transition for leases in which the Group is a lessor but account for these leases in accordance with HKFRS 16 from the date of initial application and comparative information has not been restated.

  1. Upon application of HKFRS 16, new lease contracts entered into but commence after the date of initial application relating to the same underlying assets under existing lease contracts are accounted as if the existing leases are modified as at 1 April 2019. The application has had no impact on the Group's condensed consolidated statement of financial position at 1 April 2019. However, effective 1 April 2019, lease payments relating to the revised lease term after modification are recognised as income on straight-line basis over the extended lease term.
  2. Before application of HKFRS 16, refundable rental deposits received were considered as rights and obligations under leases to which HKAS 17 applied. Based on the definition of lease payments under HKFRS 16, such deposits are not payments relating to the right- of-use assets and were adjusted to reflect the discounting effect at transition.

3. REVENUE AND SEGMENT INFORMATION

PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS FOR CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

The Group manufactures eyewear products and sells the eyewear products and contact lens to customers directly. Revenue is recognised when control of the goods has transferred, being when the goods have been shipped to the customers' specific location (delivery). Following delivery, the customers have full discretion over the manner of distribution and price to sell the goods, also have the primary responsibility when on selling the goods and bears the risks of obsolescence and loss in relation to the goods. The normal credit term is mainly 30 to 120 days upon delivery. Under the Group's standard contract terms, customers may have a right to return defective products. The Group uses its accumulated historical experience to estimate the number of exchange. Revenue is recognised for sales which are considered highly probable that a significant reversal in the cumulative revenue recognised will not occur.

The Group also receives royalty income from granting license of trademarks. Revenue is recognised over time when subsequent sale of licensing products from licensee occurs over the licensing period. The normal credit term is 30 days upon the end of a licensing period.

TRANSACTION PRICE ALLOCATED TO THE REMAINING PERFORMANCE OBLIGATION FOR CONTRACT WITH CUSTOMERS

Eyewear products and contact lens are delivered within a period less than one year. As permitted under HKFRS 15, the transaction price allocated to these unsatisfied contracts is not disclosed.

Contract for royalty income are typically have a 3-yearsnon-cancellable term in which the Group bills at a fixed rate for licensing product. The Group elected to apply the practical expedient by recognising revenue in the amount to which the Group has right to receive according to licensing agreement. As permitted under HKFRS 15, the transaction price allocated to these unsatisfied contracts is not disclosed.

The Group's operating segments, based on information reported to the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), being the executive directors of the Company, for the purposes of resources allocation and performance assessment become as follows:

Eyewear products

-

manufacturing and trading of eyewear products

Contact lens

-

trading of contact lens products

Others

-

On 21 March 2018, the Hong Kong Legislative Council passed The Inland Revenue (Amendment) (No. 7) Bill 2017 (the "Bill") which introduces the two-tiered profits tax rates regime. The Bill was signed into law on 28 March 2018 and was gazetted on the following day. Under the two-tiered profits tax rates regime, the first HK$2 million of profits of the qualifying group entity will be taxed at 8.25%, and profits above HK$2 million will be taxed at 16.5%. The profits of group entities not qualifying for the two-tiered profits tax rates regime will continue to be taxed at a flat rate of 16.5%.

Accordingly, starting from the current year, the Hong Kong Profits Tax of the qualifying group entity is calculated at 8.25% on the first HK$2 million of the estimated assessable profits and at 16.5% on the estimated assessable profits above HK$2 million.

PRC EIT is calculated at 25% of the assessable profits for subsidiaries established in the PRC in accordance with the Law of the PRC on Enterprise Income Tax (the "EIT Law") and Implementation Regulation of the EIT Law. Pursuant to relevant laws and regulations in the PRC, a subsidiary of the Company is granted tax incentives for being qualified as a High and New Technology Enterprise and is entitled to a concessionary tax rate of 15% for 3 years from 2018 to 2020.

Under the Law of United States on Income Tax, a withholding tax is required upon income earned by a non-United States resident enterprise. The withholding tax is calculated at 30% of income received and receivable for current year.

A portion of the Group's profits earned by a principal subsidiary incorporated in Hong Kong, which is taxed on 50:50 apportionment basis, neither arises in, nor is derived from, Hong Kong. Accordingly, that portion of the Group's profit is not subject to Hong Kong Profits Tax. Further, in the opinion of the directors of the Company, that portion of the Group's profit is not at present subject to taxation in any other jurisdictions in which the Group operates for both periods.

16. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Some of the Group's financial instruments are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. The following table gives information about how the fair values of these financial instruments are determined (in particular, the valuation technique(s) and inputs used), as well as the level of the fair value hierarchy into which the fair value measurements are categorised (levels 1 to 3) based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable.

  • Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active market for identical assets or liabilities;
  • Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
  • Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
