NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Expressed in Hong Kong dollars)

1 BASIS OF PREPARATION

These interim financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2019 have been prepared in accordance with the applicable disclosure provisions of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Listing Rules"), including compliance with Hong Kong Accounting Standard ("HKAS") 34 "Interim financial reporting", issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the "HKICPA").

These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the same accounting policies adopted in the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018, except for the accounting policy changes that are expected to be reflected in the 2019 annual financial statements. Details of these changes in accounting policies are set out in note 2.

The preparation of interim financial statements in conformity with HKAS 34 requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses on a year to date basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

These interim financial statements contain condensed consolidated financial statements and selected explanatory notes. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements and notes thereon do not include all of the information required for full set of financial statements prepared in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (HKFRSs), which term collectively includes HKASs and Interpretations issued by the HKICPA.

These interim financial statements are unaudited, but have been reviewed by the audit committee of the Company. The financial information relating to the year ended 31 December 2018 that is included in the interim financial statements as being previously reported information does not constitute the Company's statutory financial statements for that financial year but is derived from those financial statements. Statutory financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018 are available from the Company's head office and principal place of business in Hong Kong. The auditor did not express an opinion on those financial statements in their report dated 29 March 2019.

2. APPLICATION OF NEW AND AMENDMENTS TO HKFRSs

New and Amendments to HKFRSs that are mandatorily effective for the current year.

The Group has applied the following new and amendments to HKFRSs issued by the HKICPA for the first time in the current year:

HKFRS 16	Leases
Amendments to HKFRS 9	Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation
Amendments to HKAS 19	Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement
Amendments to HKAS 28	Long-term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures
HK(IFRIC) - Int 23	Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments
Amendments to HKFRSs	Annual Improvements to HKFRSs 2015-2017 Cycle

The Group has applied HKFRS 16 for the first time in the current period. HKFRS 16 introduces a comprehensive model for the identification of lease arrangements and accounting treatments for both lessors and lessees which superseded HKAS 17 "Leases" and the related interpretations.

- 8 -

Under HKFRS 16, distinctions of operating leases and finance leases are removed for lessee accounting and is replaced by a model where a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability have to be recognised for all leases by lessees, except for short-term leases and leases of low value assets.

The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost (subject to certain exceptions) less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. Subsequently, the lease liability is adjusted for interest and lease payments, as well as the impact of lease modification, amongst others.

Other than certain requirements which are also applicable to lessor, HKFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in HKAS 17 and continues to require a lessor to classify a lease either as an operating lease or a finance lease.

The Group has elected the practical expedient to apply HKFRS 16 to contracts that were previously identified as lease applying HKAS 17 and HK(IFRIC) - Int 4 "Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease" and not apply this standard to contracts that were not previously identified as containing a lease applying HKAS 17 and HK(IFRIC) - Int 4. Therefore, the Group will not reassess whether the contracts are, or contain a lease which already existed prior to the date of initial application, i.e. 1 January 2019.

Based on the allowed practical expedients under HKFRS 16, the Group has elected not to apply the requirements of HKFRS 16 in respect of recognition of lease liability and right-of-use assets to leases for which the lease term ends within twelve months of the date of initial application.

New and amendments to HKFRSs issued but not yet effective

The Group has not early applied the following new and amendments to HKFRSs that have been issued but are not yet effective:

HKFRS 17	Insurance Contracts2
Amendments to HKFRS 3	Definition of a Business4
Amendments to HKFRS 10 and HKAS 28	Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its
	Associate or Joint Venture3
Amendments to HKAS 1 and HKAS 8	Definition of Material1

Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020 Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2021 Effective date to be determined

Effective for business combinations and asset acquisitions for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual period beginning on or after 1 January 2020

The Directors anticipate that the application of the above new and amendments to HKFRSs which have been issued but are not yet effective will have no material impact on the results and the financial position of the Group.

2. 1. Bill 2017 (the "Bill") which introduced the Two-tiered Profits Tax Rates Regime. The Bill was signed into law on 28 March 2018 and was gazetted on the following day. Under the Two- tiered Profits Tax Rates Regime, the first HK$2 million of profits of the qualifying group entity will be taxed at 8.25%, and profits above HK$2 million will be taxed at 16.5%. The profits of group entities not qualifying for the Two-tiered Profits Tax Rates Regime will continue to be taxed at a flat rate of 16.5%. The Directors considered the amount involved upon implementation of the Two- tiered Profits Tax Rates Regime is insignificant to the condensed consolidated financial statements. HK Profits Tax is calculated at 16.5% (2018: 16.5%) of the estimated assessable profits for both periods. No provision has been made for Hong Kong Profits Tax during the six months ended 30 June 2019 and 2018 as the Group did not earn any income subject to Hong Kong Profits Tax.
