China Assurance Finance Group Limited provided earnings guidance for the nine months ended 30 September 2017. The company is expected to record a loss after tax for the nine months ended 30 September 2017. The Group made a profit after tax for the corresponding period in 2016. Such change was mainly due to the absence of gain on bargain purchase arising from acquisition of Nanning Commodity Exchange Company Limited in the corresponding period in 2016 and a significant decline in the income from online trading platform services comparing to the corresponding period in 2016.
