PROPOSED EXTENSION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF

THE 6% BOND DUE 2020 ISSUED BY

CHINA HEALTHWISE HOLDINGS LIMITED

AND

    1. NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING
  1. INTRODUCTION
    Reference is made to the Announcements in relation to the Supplemental Agreement and the

transactions contemplated thereunder.

- 7 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The purpose of this circular is to provide you with, among other things, further details of (i) the Supplemental Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder (including the right to exercise the Conversion Rights by the Subscriber), and (ii) a notice convening the EGM.

As stated in the 2018 Announcements, China Healthwise as issuer and the Subscriber as subscriber entered into the Subscription Agreement in relation to the issue and subscription of the Bond. The Bond in the principal amount of HK$120,000,000 was issued to the Bondholder pursuant to the Subscription Agreement on 11 October 2018, and with effect from 22 November 2018, the Conversions Rights attached to the Bond have become unconditional and irrevocable.

On 24 January 2020, 28 February 2020, 19 June 2020, 28 July 2020, 6 August 2020 and

19 August 2020, China Healthwise has respectively redeemed HK$4,000,000, HK$4,000,000, HK$13,000,000, HK$3,500,000, HK$5,000,000 and HK$5,000,000 of the Bond. So far, China Healthwise has redeemed in total HK$34,500,000 of the Bond and China Healthwise has paid all interest due in accordance with the terms of the Instrument. So far as the Board is aware and up to the Latest Practicable Date, China Healthwise has not committed any event of default in relation to the Bond and no adjustment event has occurred which required the adjustment to the Conversion Price.

As at the date of this circular, the aggregate principal amount of HK$85,500,000 remains outstanding under the Bond held by the Subscriber, being the sole Bondholder.

  1. SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT

On 28 August 2020, the Subscriber and China Healthwise entered into the Supplemental Agreement for amending the Subscription Agreement and the terms and conditions of the Instrument.

The principal terms of the Supplemental Agreement are as follows:

Date:

28 August 2020

Parties:

the Subscriber; and

China Healthwise

To the best of the Directors' knowledge, information and belief, having made all reasonable enquiries, China Healthwise and its ultimate beneficial owners are third parties independent of the Company and the connected persons of the Company.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Proposed Amendments

China Healthwise and the Subscriber have conditionally agreed to amend and extend the original Maturity Date of the Bond of 10 October 2020 for another two years to 10 October 2022 (or if that day is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day), where HK$85,500,000 of the principal amount remaining outstanding.

Further, since China Healthwise has to utilize the General Mandate for the Conversion Shares for the extended period of the Maturity Date instead of the previous Specific Mandate which will expire on the original Maturity Date of the Bond, necessary amendments to give effect to such changes are also made to the Instrument.

Other than the extension of the Maturity Date and the amendments regarding the utilization of the General Mandate in lieu of the Specific Mandate (and the necessary administrative matters to give effect to such changes), no other terms and conditions of the Instrument constituting the Bond have been changed.

Conditions Precedent

The obligations of the parties to the Supplemental Agreement including (i) the approval of the Subscriber, being the sole Bondholder, to amend the Instrument under the Supplemental Agreement, and (ii) the obligations of China Healthwise to give effect to the Proposed Amendments provided under the Supplemental Agreement is conditional upon the following conditions precedent having been satisfied on or before the Long Stop Date:

  1. the passing by the Shareholders at the Company's extraordinary general meeting to be convened of the necessary resolution(s) to approve the Supplemental Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder;
  2. the representations and warranties of China Healthwise as set out in the Subscription Agreement (as amended by the Supplemental Agreement) remaining true, accurate and not misleading in each case in accordance with their terms;
  3. since the date of the Supplemental Agreement, there having been, in the opinion of the Subscriber, no Material Adverse Change;
  4. the Stock Exchange having granted the listing of, and permission to deal in, the Conversion Shares to China Healthwise;
  5. the Stock Exchange having granted approval for the amendments to the Bond;

- 9 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

  1. there exist sufficient amount of the General Mandate to be utilized for the initial conversion of the principal amount of the Bond into Conversion Shares; and
  2. China Healthwise delivering to the Subscriber a cashier's order or a cheque issued by a bank licensed in Hong Kong in the amount of HK$5,144,054.79 payable to the Subscriber, being the outstanding accrued interests on the original maturity date of the outstanding principal amount of the Bond.

The Subscriber and China Healthwise shall use their respective best endeavours to procure the fulfilment of the Conditions Precedent, and in the event that any of such conditions is not fulfilled by 5:00 p.m. on the Long Stop Date (without prejudice to the Subscriber's rights under the Supplemental Agreement, and under the Subscription Agreement and the Instrument), the Supplemental Agreement will automatically be terminated.

So far as the Board is aware and as at the Latest Practicable Date, none of the Conditions Precedent has been satisfied.

If the Supplemental Agreement is terminated, the Proposed Amendments will not become effective and China Healthwise shall redeem the entire outstanding principal amount of the Bond together with all accrued interests on 10 October 2020 (being the original Maturity Date) in accordance with the Conditions of the Bond.

As explained in the section "The Conversion Rights considered to be an option pursuant to the Listing Rules" below, the Company will seek a separate resolution of the Shareholders to approve prior to the exercise of any Conversion Rights under the Bond in compliance with Rule 14.76(2) of the Listing Rules. The two resolutions are not inter- conditional to each other. This second resolution will not affect the fulfilment of the Conditions Precedent and the Board considers it will still be in the interest of the Company and its Shareholder to proceed with the proposed extension of the Maturity Date of the Bond even if the second resolution is not passed at the EGM as further explained in that section.

Subject to and upon satisfaction of the Conditions Precedent on or before the Long Stop Date, China Healthwise shall do and deliver to the Subscriber (on or before the Effective Date) the following documents with effect from the Effective Date:

Information of China Healthwise

China Healthwise and its subsidiaries are principally engaged in sale of toys, Chinese health products, money lending business and investment in financial instruments. According to the 2019 annual report of China Healthwise published in April 2020, the Board notes that although the businesses of China Healthwise have been negatively affected by the local social unrest and the COVID-19 pandemic, China Healthwise:

  1. would continue to invest in the health care business and to develop their retail business of "Sum Yung" 參茸)dried seafood products and other healthy food products in Hong Kong with an aim to broaden their revenue base especially to the youth generation and middle class consumers, and they expect the number of tourists to Hong Kong will rebounce as soon as the situation in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic becomes stable to have a positive future impact on the retail market of Hong Kong and China Healthwise's performance on Chinese health products. According to the 2020 interim report of China Healthwise published in August 2020, there were 10 retail shops of Nam Pei Hong as at 30 June 2020;
  2. had started shifting some of their production of toys from their Chinese suppliers to an Indonesia manufacturer in 2019 and are partnering with a major third party on-line reseller in 2020 to increase their on-line sales of toys (in this connection, the Board notes that China Healthwise by an announcement dated 19 August 2020 announced that they had conditionally agreed to sell their subsidiaries that carry on this line of business, which transaction has not been completed as at the Latest Practicable Date); and
  3. in relation to their investment in financial instruments, will change their equity portfolio mix from time to time and realise the equities held by their group into cash as and when appropriate.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

As stated in the annual report of China Healthwise as at 31 December 2019, China Healthwise had audited consolidated net assets of approximately HK$326,673,000. The net loss before and after taxation of China Healthwise for the 9 months ended 31 December 2019 were approximately HK$126,327,000 and HK$126,874,000 respectively. The net loss before and after taxation of China Healthwise for the year ended 31 March 2019 were approximately HK$106,379,000 and HK$104,412,000 respectively.

Reasons for and benefits of the Proposed Amendments

The Group is principally engaged in (i) the trading of packaged foods, beverages and household consumable products; (ii) the trading of agri-products and the upstream farming business; (iii) the provision of cold chain logistics services and value-addedpost-harvest food processing; and (iv) other businesses primarily arising from the securities brokerage business and the tourist retailing business.

Investment opportunities of our Group and our financial resources

Since the rate of return of the Bond is generally more favourable and higher than the interest rates of fixed deposits in Hong Kong dollars between 0.14% annualized rate per annum for 30-days fixed deposits to upto 0.83% per annum for one-year fixed deposits offered by well-recognised financial institutions in Hong Kong, the Directors are of the view that the extension of the maturity date of the Bond would continue to generate better interest income for the Group, and by extending the maturity date of the Bond, the Company can reduce additional costs, risks and workload on conducting market research, due diligence and negotiation with other third parties for similar investments in convertible securities. The Company has developed, among other business strategies, an investment plan to invest in investment products in order to better utilize the cash and current assets and seek to make a better return instead of the low interest income from depositing into financial institutions in Hong Kong and set up an investment department with an investment manager who reports directly to the Board periodically. Since 2016, the Company has been investing in various listed debt and equity securities in Hong Kong. After the Board has become familiar to the terms of the debt and equity securities and their risks and benefits, and when an investment opportunity arose to subscribe the Bond in 2018, in particular noticing the benefits of the higher interest rate being offered as compared to the lower gross rate of return of other listed debt securities of around 4-6% per annum and the fixed deposits interest rate as mentioned above, further coupled with the conversion rights the Company would be entitled to exercise, the Board considered that subscribing for the Bond, and hence seeking extension of the Bond, is clearly better than other available investment opportunities.

- 25 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

As set out in the section "Material Adverse Change" in Appendix I to this circular, the Company has suffered several material adverse changes since the last audited financial results for the year ended 30 June 2019. The Board considers that the Company has sufficient available financial resources for the Group as a whole without resorting to any additional fund raising activities and extending the Bond would not create any squeeze or stress on the working capital and solvency position of the Group as a whole. Further, facing the uncertain and volatile global markets due to major countries escalating trade wars and imposing tariffs without timely advance warning where our Group's trading business have been affected, coupled with the civil protests and coronavirus pandemic, the Board has been very prudent and expect the market condition to continue to be so in the coming months. Therefore, the Board does not wish to commit significant investments on new projects which require substantial capital expenditure or upfront investment costs, as any of these may run the risk of being jeopardized by any of the major global or local uncertain events. Therefore, this is also one of the reasons that the Board considers extending the Maturity Date of the Bond would be appropriate in the current market condition.

Factors relating to China Healthwise

Since the Conversion Rights is one of the integral terms of the Bond as the parties to the Bond has originally agreed and was issued about two years ago when trade wars between major countries and new tariffs imposed were not as severe as recently, and the Board could not have anticipated at that time the soon to happen widespread civil unrest in Hong Kong and the global coronavirus pandemic. These events all have material and adverse effect to the trading industry as a whole including our Group's trading and logistics business and also the retail and trading business of China Healthwise. Adverse impacts come in all possible ways and channels including but not limited to trading logistics being disrupted, losing existing business partners due to closure of markets or trading channels and requiring looking for alternative business partners, increased costs, time delays, complete loss of businesses due to suppliers and/or customers closing down, reduced demand, etc. As a result of these, the business and financial results of our Group have been negatively affected, and as far as the Board is aware, China Healthwise is in more or less similar situation and the Board believes that these factors possibly contributed to the fall in the share price of China Healthwise.

- 26 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

As explained above, the Board believes that the fall of the share price of China Healthwise since the issue of the Bond has in effect increased the premium of the Conversion Price as compared with the latest quoted price of China Healthwise. As the Board has explained, the Conversion Rights is one of the integral terms of the Bond which was issued about two years ago, and during the course of the term, various unknown and material effects could and actually have happened that have affected many things, from the macro global business and social community to the business and financial performance of our Group, and also of China Healthwise. The Board considers that if and when the major incidents and the adverse effects caused to the industry and the market by these major incidents could be resolved or stabilised or by adopting new measures, the market sentiment and demand could rebound and in particular, the retail and trading business of our Group and the trading of Chinese dried and health food products under the brand "Nam Pei Hong" by China Healthwise would be able to pick up lost business opportunity. Hence, the Board considers the share price of China Healthwise may pick up in the future to reflect the better business results of China Healthwise by analogy to the falling share price reflecting the deteriorating business results of China Healthwise in the past. If the share price of China Healthwise increases in the future, the premium will be lowered in the course of the extended Maturity Date of the Bond similar to the increased premium during the original course of the Bond. Further, the Board is optimistic that when the retail and trading business are resumed, terms of the cooperation plans with China Healthwise will more likely to be able to be finalized, and if so, the Company will publish announcement(s) to inform the Shareholders of the business progress.

Notwithstanding the above, the Board has no obligation to exercise any of the Conversion Rights at all and currently has no intention to exercise, and would not exercise the Conversion Rights if it is not in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole. More importantly, the Board would like to emphasize that with or without the Conversion Rights, and whether any potential cooperation with China Healthwise could be materialized or not, the proposed extension of the Maturity Date of the Bond, when lay bare, is to provide the Company a better rate of return than other potential investments with an annual interest rate of 6% and neither the Conversion Rights or potential cooperation with China Healthwise will affect this return of investments. Without this extended Bond, the Company most likely will be able to generate a meagre return on average of an aggregate of about 2% based on the possible investments of listed debt securities which are comparatively smaller in size than the Bond with the bulk of the remaining fund likely to be placed on fixed deposits. The Conversion Rights and the potential cooperation with China Healthwise will provide the Company potential benefits if the exercise of the Conversion Rights is in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole, for example, if the Conversion Price becomes comparable to the share price of China Healthwise and if the Company could expand the trading business by selling Chinese dried and health food products under the brand "Nam Pei Hang" and finalizing the cooperation with China Healthwise. Since these two factors are not certain, and if either or both fail to materialize, it would not cause any adverse effect to the Group as a whole. Therefore, taking into account all the factors explained, the Board considers that the extension of the Maturity Date of the Bond is in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders.

- 27 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

In fact, the Group has been in discussion with China Healthwise for exploring the development and distribution of Chinese and other pharmaceutical products and health products in the PRC market currently sold under the brand name "Nam Pei Hong". However, due to the civil protests in Hong Kong last year and global coronavirus pandemic this year, negotiation process have been severely affected and disrupted and the parties have not been able to finalize any terms in the meantime. Although several preliminary cooperation plans have been put forward, neither parties during the past two years were able to agree on various material and forecast variables and any potential adverse consequences that might happen caused by any of these social events or other unexpected events in the coming short to medium terms. As a result, all those negotiations and progress made became obsolete under the then and current market conditions. The Board is optimistic that the Bond to be extended would continue to strengthen the relationship between the Group and China Healthwise in their business development because the Bond creates an existing relationship between the two parties which is beneficial to the Company as explained in this circular and the Board also believes would be beneficial to China Healthwise as it provides liquidity to them. Save for the Bond, there was no cooperation between the Company and China Healthwise in the past.

Other factors relating to our Group

The Supplemental Agreement was determined by China Healthwise and the Subscriber on an arm's length basis with reference to, among other things, (i) the interest rate of 6% per annum under the Instrument; (ii) the length of the extension of the maturity date of the Bond to 10 October 2022; and (iii) no premium, costs or any amounts will be given by either party to the other party to give effect to the Proposed Amendments.

As disclosed in the Annual Report of the Company dated 30 September 2019 (the latest financial statements of the Company), the fair value of the Bond, being an unlisted debt investments in the principal amount of HK$120,000,000 as at 30 June 2019 has been valued by a firm of independent professional qualified valuers derived from estimations of the equity component and debt component value by using Binomial Option Pricing Model in which the credit spread derived from comparable bonds with similar maturities and credit rating by build-up method, was approximately HK$109,774,000 as at 30 June 2019.

- 28 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Board would like to emphasize that although the then fair value of the Bond as at 30 June 2019 was less than the nominal value of the Bond based on technical valuation model, there are other qualitative factors and issues happening in the overall global community that cannot adequately be included in its calculation and determination as to its attractiveness. The Board considered that, taking into all the factors and issues as explained in this section "Reasons for and benefits of the Proposed Amendment" as a whole, extending the Maturity Date of Bond would be in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders.

Since the Conversion Rights is one of the integral terms of the Bond, and the Company has the right, but not the obligation to exercise the Conversion Rights to convert the Bond into the shares of China Healthwise. Further, the Conversion Rights give the Company a further potential benefit to convert the Bond into the shares of China Healthwise if the Company considers it is in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders to do so.

As explained in paragraph 4 "Effects on the earnings and assets and liabilities of the Company" on Appendix I to this circular, the benefits of the Bond will give the Company an estimated interest income of approximately HK$10.3 million during the course of the extended term of the Bond (assuming there is no early redemption or conversion of the Bond) and if the Company does exercise the Conversion Rights and convert the Bond into the shares of China Healthwise, the Company is expected to hold about 9.99% of the issued share capital of China Healthwise as enlarged by the allotment and issue of the Conversion Shares and these equity interest of the Group in China Healthwise will be accounted for as an available-for-sale financial assets booked at fair value.

Other than the Bond, the Board currently does not have any other interest, and has no intention to further increase any equity interests or securities convertible into equity interests in China Healthwise. The Board further does not anticipate seeking any board nomination to the board of China Healthwise. Given that upon full conversion, the Company will hold about 9.99% of the entire issued share capital of China Healthwise (assuming there will be no further change to its shareholding structure), the Board considers that the Company will hold such shares as investments for sale. Because of this, the Board does not have any current intention to exercise any of the Conversion Rights, and will only exercise if it is in the interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole. Not exercising the Conversion Rights at all will not have any adverse impact to the Company.

- 29 -

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

The Conversion Rights considered to be an option pursuant to the Listing Rules

Since the right to exercise the Conversion Rights by the Subscriber is considered to be an option pursuant to Rule 14.76(2) of the Listing Rules, as such, any exercise of the Conversion Rights by the Subscriber shall also be subject to Shareholders' approval, and a second resolution will be proposed at the EGM to approve the right to exercise the Conversion Rights by the Subscriber, in addition to the first resolution to approve the Supplemental Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder.

The two resolutions are not inter-conditional to each other. If the first resolution is not passed (whether or not the second resolution is passed), the proposed extension of the Maturity Date will not become effective and the Bond will be redeemed by China Healthwise on the original Maturity Date in accordance with the original terms of the Bond. If the first resolution is passed but the second resolution is not passed, the Board will proceed with the proposed extension of the Maturity Date of the Bond but the Conversion Rights will not be exercised during the extended period of the Bond. And if both resolutions are passed, the Board will proceed with the proposed extension of the Maturity Date of the Bond and will only exercise the Conversion Rights at the appropriate time and circumstances which will be in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.

Since the Conversion Rights is one of the integral terms of the Bond, no additional cost or premium has been or will be paid by either the Subscriber or China Healthwise to the other party. As explained in the section "Reasons for and benefits of the Proposed Amendments", the Board considers that even without the right to exercise the Conversion Rights, the baseline benefits that by extending the Bond for purely steady interest income that will bring is still in the interest of the Company and its Shareholders especially in this volatile and uncertain global market conditions.

The Directors are of the view that the terms of the Supplemental Agreement and the transaction contemplated thereunder (including the right to exercise the Conversion Rights by the Subscriber) are fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the shareholders of the Company as a whole.

The said annual reports of the Company are available on the Company's website at www.hengtai.com.hk and the website of the Stock Exchange at www.hkexnews.hk .

2. INDEBTEDNESS

At the close of business on 31 August 2020, being the latest practicable date for the purpose of ascertaining certain information relating to this indebtedness statement prior to the printing of this circular, the Group had an aggregate outstanding indebtedness of approximately HK$22.7 million, which was comprised of:

At

31 August 2020

HK$'000

Bank loans

15,134

Lease liabilities

7,591

22,725

The Group's bank loans were secured by corporate guarantees executed by the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company and a charge over the Group's pledged bank deposits amounting to HK$15.1 million at 31 August 2020.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

3. WORKING CAPITAL

The Directors are of the opinion that, taking into account the cash flows generated from the operating activities, the financial resources presently available to the Group and the existing banking facilities available, the Group has sufficient working capital for its present requirements and for at least twelve months from the date of this circular in the absence of unforeseen circumstances.

4. EFFECTS ON THE EARNINGS AND ASSETS AND LIABILITIES OF THE COMPANY

Earnings

As disclosed in the Company's annual report for the year ended 30 June 2019, the Group recorded the audited consolidated loss of approximately HK$286.0 million. Upon the Proposed Amendments becoming effective, it is expected that the extension of the original Maturity Date of the Bond will continue to generate interest income for the Group which will impact the earnings of the Group. The Bond bears interest at the rate of 6% per annum for the 24-month period from (and including) 11 October 2020 to (and including) 10 October 2022 on the outstanding principal amount of the Bond; it is estimated that the interest income accrued for the said 24-month period of the Bond will be approximately HK$10.3 million assuming no early redemption is made by China Healthwise and the Subscriber does not exercise any of the Conversion Rights.

Assets and liabilities

As disclosed in the Company's annual report for the year ended 30 June 2019, the audited total assets of the Group was approximately HK$1,981.8 million and the audited total liabilities of the Group was approximately HK$145.7 million as at 30 June 2019. Upon full conversion to the Conversion Shares at the initial Conversion Price, the Conversion Shares represent approximately 9.99% of the issued share capital of China Healthwise as enlarged by the allotment and issue of the Conversion Shares to be allotted and issued upon the exercise of the Conversion Rights in full (assuming there is no other change in the share capital of China Healthwise), and the equity interest of the Group in China Healthwise will be accounted for as an available-for-sale financial assets booked at fair value.

The Board does not expect that the entering into of the Supplemental Agreement would have any adverse financial impact on the earnings, assets and liabilities of the Group.

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

5. MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE

As disclosed in the announcements dated 4 September 2020 and 10 September 2020, based on information then available, the unaudited consolidated financial results of the Group for year ended 30 June 2020 (the "2019/20 Annual Results") are expected to record a decrease in revenue of about 35% and an increase in loss from operations as compared to the previous corresponding financial period.

As disclosed in the announcement of the Company dated 21 February 2020, the Group's decrease in revenue has been adversely affected by the continuous weakening demand in the PRC consumer market and continuous competition from domestic and international brands against the consumable goods and agri-products which the Group are trading coupled with the unfavorable and ongoing adverse global trading environment and the coronavirus pandemic. Although the Chinese authorities have been slowly easing lockdown and restrictive measures brought in to tackle the coronavirus pandemic, the Group is still facing poor market sentiment and disruptions caused, where our FMCG Trading Business segment and Agri-Products Business segment have been adversely affected.

Notwithstanding the decrease in revenue, our gross profit has been more severely affected as compared to the previous corresponding financial period. Our gross profit margin has been squeezed from all sides as the weakened demand from customers and fierce competitions have prevented us to pass all the increased costs to customers, and on the contrary, more aggressive pricing strategies including special promotions and discounts have been offered to induce additional sales in this difficult market condition.

Further and as a result of the poor performing industry as a whole and taking into account that there is currently no concrete evidence that the coronavirus pandemic and the effects it has caused to the global community as a whole will be resolved in the short to medium term, the Board therefore concludes that a significant impairment will have to be made to the assets and receivables of our Group's two business segments mostly affected by the pandemic, namely our FMCG Trading Business segment and Agri-Products Business segments.

On the other hand, part of our loss has been offset by a slight reduction of our overhead expenses and an increase in the interest income from our investments in convertible bonds.

- 36 -

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

As the Board was still finalizing the 2019/20 Annual Results during that time and given the uncertain market conditions, the Board was unable to determine with reasonable confidence the impairment loss that would have to be made, although the Board was aware that the final amount to be made would be significant given the adverse impact that have already been made on the global and local market and are continuing.

As disclosed in the announcement dated 10 September 2020, the Board has assessed the impairment loss to be made would be approximately HK$210 million, and the result of which will impact materially to our financial position, and together with all other factors, will likely cause an increase in loss from operations of approximately 10% as compared to the previous corresponding financial period. However, these figures are still subject to assessment and final determination and may not accurately reflect the final audited figures to be set out in the 2019/20 Annual Results.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, saved as disclosed above, the Directors were not aware of any material adverse change in the financial or trading position of the Group since 30 June 2019, being the date to which the latest published audited financial statements of the Group were made up.

6. FINANCIAL AND TRADING PROSPECTS OF THE GROUP

The Group's income was derived from four business units: (i) the FMCG Trading Business;

  1. the Agri-Products Business; (iii) the Logistics Services Business; and (iv) the other business primarily arising from the securities brokerage business and the tourist retailing business.

The outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) (the "epidemic") posed an unprecedented challenge to the global economy. China's economy shrank by 6.8 per cent in the first quarter of 2020, the first contraction for more than 40 years caused by an extensive economic shutdown to battle with the epidemic. The retail sales growth also recorded a dramatic collapse with contractions for seventh straight months till July 2020.

- 37 -

APPENDIX I

FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE GROUP

As a result, the Group's business performance is expected to encounter a more difficult environment in near future provided that there are many uncertainties ahead such as the development of the epidemic as well as other unpredictable economic and political risks including but not limited to the intensifying tensions among different nations and the increasingly volatile foreign exchange market. Therefore, the Group will retain cautious stance in business development and focus on business and investment the Group is familiar with.

For the traditional trading businesses including the FMCG Trading Business and the agri- products trading business, the Group will continue to reinforce their operations by reinforcing the relationship with suppliers, in particular considering the increasing popularity of cross-border internet shopping. The Group will resume its procurement network expansion when the global traffic returns to normal to ensure stable product portfolio and variety. The Group will implement relatively aggressive pricing strategies to maintain competitiveness amid the weak market conditions.

For the upstream farming business, the Group is cautiously optimistic on its development considering the improved agricultural operations and distribution channels. Therefore, the Group will continue to carefully invest in this business unit such as development of a food processing center near the farming base, which is expected to help facilitate brand building and distribution network expansion for the Group's self-grown products.

For the securities brokerage business and the tourist retailing business, the Group will decelerate its developments in such uncertain and volatile market conditions. The Group will focus on cost saving initiatives for these business units until the market shows signs of recovery.

The financial results are expected to be hindered by the deteriorating macro environment. There are many uncertainties ahead including the development of the epidemic, the political tension among different major nations, and the global economic slowdown. The Group will take a more cautious stance for future development and continue to implement cost-saving initiatives, as well as ensure a strong and healthy financial position to weather any unforeseeable headwinds.

Save as disclosed, there is no material change in the trend of business of the Group since 30 June 2019 up to the Latest Practicable Date. Save for any unforeseen events, the Group is cautiously optimistic on the prospect and the financial performance over coming years.
