Zhong Ji Longevity Science Group Limited provided preliminary unaudited consolidated group earnings guidance for the six months ended June 30, 2021. For the period, the group expects to record a net loss of approximately HKD 15 million as compared to the net profit of approximately HKD 16 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The board considers that such expected consolidated net loss for the period is mainly attributable to slow down of economy resulting from the impact of the COVID-19 where the group has implemented a rather prudent and cautious approach towards the money lending business, financial and investment advisory business and property investment business in view of the sluggish economy. Nevertheless, the group's new longevity science business has demonstrated a positive growth and this has served as a cushion to alleviate the overall decrease in the net profit. With the ever increase in the health awareness in the Chinese population, the group will allocate more resources in ramping up the longevity science in the near future. Given its positive outlook, the longevity science business will be one of core stream of income and net profit in middle to long term perspective.
