Vinco Financial Group Limited provided earnings guidance for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The board of directors informed the shareholders of the company and potential investors that based on the information currently available and the unaudited consolidated management accounts of the group, the group is expected to record a loss for the six months ended 30 June 2014 as compared to the profit recorded for the corresponding period in 2013. Such decline is primarily due to the drop in revenue as a result of the slightly slowing down in the progress of certain projects on hand due to clients' worries over domestic uncertainties might have temporarily impacts to the local capital markets.

The management of the group currently estimates that the loss attributable to shareholders for the six months ended 30 June 2014 will be not more than HKD 2 million.
