Prosperity Investment Holdings Ltd. provided earnings guidance for the year ended December 31, 2015. The company announced that the profit of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2015 is expected to be narrowed as a result of fluctuation in the stock market in the second half of year 2015 leading to the decrease in fair value of the held-for-trading listed equity investments and increase in the impairment of available-for-sale equity investments as at 31 December 2015. Based on the unaudited management accounts of the Group, the Group is still expected to record a profit before tax of approximately HKD 17 million for the year ended 31 December 2015, as compared with the loss of approximately HKD 16 million for the year ended 31 December 2014, mainly due to the following reasons: increase in fair value gain of approximately HKD 62 million on held-for-trading listed equity investments which includes approximately HKD 58 million realised gain from the disposal of held-for-trading listed equity investments; increase in realised gain of approximately HKD 5 million from the disposal of available-for-sale listed equity investments; increase in impairment loss of approximately HKD 25 million on available-for-sale equity investments and interest in associate; and decrease of approximately HKD 6 million on interest income.
