Rivera (Holdings) Limited provides consolidated earnings guidance for the year ended December 31, 2018. For the year the company announced that the board of directors of the company wishes to inform shareholders of the company and potential investors that the Group is expected to record a decrease of approximately 40% in its consolidated profit after tax attributable to the Shareholders for the year ended 31 December, 2018 as compared with that of HKD 281 million for the corresponding period in 2017. The expected decrease in the results of the Group for the year under review is mainly attributable to a significant drop in the Group's share of profit of an associate. As disclosed in the interim report of the company for 2018, this associate recognized a considerable amount of sale proceeds from its residential development project in Shanghai in the year 2017 upon completion and delivery to the buyers, but for the year under review, this associate derived its revenue mainly from property leasing in Shanghai. Notwithstanding that there was an increase in both the sale proceeds from the property business of the Group in Macau and the gain generated from securities trading and investment of the Group in Hong Kong, it is expected that the Group's consolidated results after tax for the year ended 31st December, 2018 may be lower than that for the corresponding period in 2017. Although a decline in the consolidated results of the Group may be recorded, the Board believes that this will not have any material adverse impact on the financial position of the Group.
