BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE YEAR

  • Due to some contracts signed during the Year not yet recognised as revenue in the same year, the Group reported revenue of HK$416,848,000 as compared to the corresponding year of HK$439,317,000, or a drop of 5.11%

  • Due to a drop in revenue and gross profit margin slightly narrowing from 26.00% to 25.69%, the Group achieved just breakeven with its operations

  • Equity base stood at HK$205,602,000 as at 31st December 2018, of which cash and cash equivalents and yield-enhanced financial instruments remained at a healthy level at HK$133,562,000

  • Although VHL and MDL in aggregate secured contracts just approximately HK$200,000,000 from the Government of Macao during the Year, representing an approximate year-on-year drop of 20%, due to the Mainland China team tripling the contracts signed in the Year to over HK$82,000,000, the order book of the Group grew by 2.64% to reach over HK$450,000,000

  • The Directors recommend the payment of a final dividend of HK$0.005 per Share for the Year
