The board of directors of Tomson Group Ltd. announced to shareholders of the company and potential investors that the Group is expected to record a substantial increase in consolidated profit after tax for the year ended December 31, 2013 as compared with that for the corresponding period in 2012. Such expected increase in consolidated profit after tax is mainly related to the property development and investment of the Group in the People's Republic of China and is principally attributable to a noticeable increase in the amount of sale proceeds of properties that could be recognized by the Group in 2013 and a significant increase in the unrealized gain on fair value changes of investment properties upon revaluation pursuant to the applicable accounting standards.
