GET Holdings Limited provided earnings guidance for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The company is expected to record a substantial loss for the nine months ended 30 September 2017 as opposed to a net profit of approximately HKD 30.9 million for the nine months ended 30 September 2016. Such substantial loss was mainly caused by the segment loss contributed by the Securities Investment Business of not more than HKD 300 million for the 2017 against profit of approximately HKD 8.8 million a year ago.

The Board updated that the substantial loss for the period was also caused by the impairment losses on goodwill in relation to the cash generating unit of the Software Business of not more than HKD 230 million for the third quarter of 2017.
