Management Discussion and Analysis

Development project "Capital Cove" in Tongzhou, Beijing

RESULTS

The Group recorded a revenue of HK$1,278 million (2020: HK$1,262 million) for the first half of the financial year with profit attributable to shareholders of the Company at HK$147 million (2020: HK$652 million). While there is a slight increase in revenue, the Group's provision for expected credit loss on

its financial investments increased substantially, following the liquidity crisis facing PRC real estate developers, resulting in the decline of the Group's profit attributable to shareholders.

PROPERTIES SALES, DEVELOPMENT AND LEASING

SALES AND DEVELOPMENT

Sub-structure works for the two commercial towers are in progress as well. The entire joint venture development comprises 2.3 million sq. ft. GFA.
