PROFIT WARNING

Based on the preliminary assessment of the unaudited consolidated management accounts of the Group for the Interim Period and the information currently available to the Board, the Group is expected to record a loss for the Interim Period, while profit amounted to HK$14.47 million was recorded for the corresponding period in 2018. The information contained in this announcement has not been reviewed or audited by the Independent Auditors or reviewed by the Audit Committee. Shareholders and potential investors are advised to read carefully the interim results announcement of the Group for the Interim Period, which is expected to be published by the end of November 2019.

Shareholders and potential investors are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the securities of the Company.

This announcement is made by Tsui Wah Holdings Limited (the ''Company'', together with its subsidiaries, the ''Group'') pursuant to Rule 13.09 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the Stock Exchange (the ''Listing Rules'') and the Inside Information Provisions (as defined under the Listing Rules) under Part XIVA of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571 of the Laws of Hong Kong).

The board of directors of the Company (the ''Directors'' and the ''Board'', respectively) wishes to inform the shareholders of the Company (the ''Shareholders'') and the potential investors that, based on a preliminary assessment of the unaudited consolidated management accounts of the Group for the six months ended 30 September 2019 (the ''Interim Period'') and the information currently available to the Board, the Group is expected to record a loss for the Interim Period, while profit amounted to HK$14.47 million was recorded for the corresponding period in 2018. To the best knowledge of the Directors, the loss was mainly attributable to (i) the substantial decrease in revenue resulting from various uncertainties in the current environment, including the depreciation of Renminbi, weakened consumer sentiment, as well as a sharp decline in inbound visitors starting from mid-June 2019; and (ii) the increase in percentage of operating costs over revenue resulting from the continuous

Shareholders and potential investors are advised to read carefully the interim results announcement of the Group for the Interim Period, which is expected to be published by the end of November 2019.

Shareholders and potential investors are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the securities of the Company.

For and on behalf of
